yea get that new head on so i can have those injectors
Third time is the charm, no leaks at all now. Just tightened up the tstat housing some for the coolant. For the oil, I went back to the stock fitting and drain pipe. The drain pipe I chopped near the bottom, about 1" before it starts to flare out and put some rubber hose in to fill the gap. Works like a champ. Even though the pipe is only a compression fitting at the top, the rubber hose and oring hold it in place. Gonna drive it around this week and report back with pictures of the final product.
i know you have your fancy new job but any updates?!?
Good things come to those that wait. I think this is going to be a good summer for my STDs. I have been in the talks with Diesel Meken and am ready to pull my pump. I have a #22 head with 2.5 prechambers out and 3.5 more to go before its off to the shop. Seems the best way to do this labor wise is all at once. #22 head, 606hg, new chain, uprated pump, different turbo (getting a HX30W over the HY30W).
Um, I need to get in on this action. Maybe I can come up for a few days and get me a new head and do all of the following as well! I'm exactly serious.
Finally got the prechambers pulled out, dropped off head at highly recommended Will's Machine Shop and it was cleaned, pressure tested and resurfaced in 2 hours. I honestly thought they were calling me to tell me bad news.
sweet. what did the machining cost you?
mmm nice.
wow that's fast!
HD's are awesome, I too installed some this weekend, all around. Much stiffer in the corners, still smooth over bumps!
Dunno about smooth bumps, not compared to your average american care from the 70's but I certainly feel the need for a sway bar!
Well, I mean it isn't overly harsh, or too stiff for comfort. Still rides well. And yes sway bar sounds like a good idea too haha
I loved the HD's on my 240d It road firm but not ruff
A little bird dropped into day and left me a message about a very heavy box on its way from somewhere yet unknown... SSSSHHHHH BE VERY QUIET, DONT SCARE THE BOX AWAY.
Word on the bookface is Goran delivered a pump to that neck of the woods...

Me too, Waiting for it to be installed and tested out. Pump is 7,5mm,serie 1 element, 4 degrees later ignintion at low idle RS157-1 with ALDA, Adjusted to 65cc no boost -125cc 1,5bar boost @1500rpm,
Governor 6000rpm full load.
Low idle 650-700rpm
I think this will be enough for a nice 300hp daily drive car.
Hopfully you have your pump soon. I dont understand why customs take so long, I have declared it with the correct "whatisitinsidetheparcel number" and everything.

larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?
There will be a running video around 2am right?

Oh I am sorely tempted to mount this today. However, I've got the week of thanksgiving planned for a #22 head, new hx30w and this beast.

Easiest way to remove a head is to blow it off with 500cc of fuel

I can grab one at the yards. They pop up around every other month, except the problem is getting one and then getting stuck with it because the buyer either backs out or finds another source. They are about $50.00 without warranty at the yards.

I can't wait...I have everything but a pump and my new 22 head installed. I do have an HX35 however so depending on how your install goes, I will get to decide whether to down it a size. I'm very interested in your plan for intercooling!
Winmutt, my special 603 guinea pig; a brave pioneer on the side of the ocean. I cannot wait to see your success! In addition to power, I Hope to see some better fuel mileage, though I doubt that will happen for several tanks into the project.
