Ok so thought it was time to start a new thread with my new engine build im gonna do. Think we have it sussed wat is up with my engine. See my problems only started when i sleeved my number 1 bore and changed my cam. Ive ruled out my cam as it checks out fine and my cam tunnel is fine. So that leaves my block with the sleeved bore. Behind the waterpump you can see a crack and wen i pulled it down it is clear it has emulsified oil on the crack but the sleeve should be the new master bore right? Well if they are bored too far down then they end up in the oil gallery and wen the engine warms ups the crack spreads and the pressures pushes the oil up the crack into the water gallery. Thus stopping oil from getting to the middle cam bearings and starving my top end as well making it noisy. So sleeve was installed wrong and is causing problems. So time for a new block.
New plans are to use Ross forged pistons that are 28cc and FG rods with the small end resized to suit the pistons. Machine the pistons down about 3mm or .118' and still have a shite load of meat. Will probaly machine less and have a positive deck height and up my comp and use an MLS headgasket. And also change my EVL valves to stainless ferrera units. So Basically a new stronger bottom end that can take it running leaner etc... I will be keeping everything else the same inc my cam for now haha
Anyways thats just an update for the peeps that know my car and for the rest this is wat she is atm.
This was all good for 272rwhp on a very safe tune, we made more but had to dial it back because it liked to run lean. We found out after this that i only had 9v going to my dizzy and after wiring it right she was a completely different car haha.
