Looking good! So what mount did you use?
|
sorry for any confusion but i installed a ported 3mm rotors 13b rew for now while i build my 20b .
http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo-0114.jpg I have checked for and did the proper clearances to have a little give for high boost levels and make sure that the rotor side seals ride the steels and not the rotors,and polished rotors to fight carbon build up but have one more to do ! http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo-0103.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo-0101.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo-0101.jpg I will post pics of the e shaft. http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...Photo-0108.jpg I am chafing the oil ports so that i can get oil all the way across the rotor bearings and not just the center of the bearing. What I am looking to accomplish is better oil flow for the rotor bearings and e shaft! I have done this mod to some 13b e-shafts as well that I am also considering to do to my 20b e-shaft, I am planning on removing the the spring and ball oiling mechanism. They are there for engine warm up process which is nice for a standard engine but because I plan on making high hp. I want the oil instantly so I will remove the spring and ball and install a webber 200 jet which will supply a sufficient amount of oil to key areas. be back soon! |
been a busy bee but got one rotor done 2 two more to do for my 20b! here is a sneak peak!
scalloped rotors http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...31-47_4412.jpg timing @ TDC http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...-45-23_994.jpg and a lil suspension work http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...7/DSCI0020.jpg sway bars for the front and rear just for the twists at dgrr http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...7/DSCI0019.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...7/DSCI0021.jpg |
What up? I'm suprised I actually came across this thread. Everything looks better on computer than on your cell phone. The rotors and polished e-shaft look nuts. :cheers2:
|
Looking good! Hope to see it at DGRR
|
oh will do my best to be there. Trying to get this 20b project done! I am building my own engine subframe not that bad at all. Today I got my jig done so it will be all true with steering rack, bottom clearance and stock shifter location. I have the engine in to mock up then start spot welding then back to the jig to finish the welds. I will try to post pics once the sub frame is complete .
|
ok so the past week I have been really busy with the 20b sub frame so this is it !
first I was not wanting to hack my car and intake manifold and dry shaft. so I installed the dry shaft, the power plant frame and the motor so that I would know where to start .I took the sub frame out and went to work this is what I came out with! http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/085.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/084.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/071.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/072.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/073.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/098.jpg steering rack arms. oh ya you should wear safety glasses! http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/091.jpg Drilling the holes to mount the steering rack. http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/095.jpg |
steering done
http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/103.jpg |
so the sub frame is complete
So this came in !!! http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...tedrx7/083.jpg starting tomorrow I will begin the rebuild on the 20b ! so far I have done rotor clearances and scalloped rotors!! I will be doing a bridge port on the secondaries. steal housings are in excellent shape.I will post pics of the bridge port then close it all up. then take it all out of the mock up car and install it into my black fd and begin wiring the micro tec lt-12s thanks ! be back soon enough. |
Definitely going to be at the rally this year Phil. If things go right we will have a couple 20b's going.
Started my partner Bobby's 20b build today also he is the master welder and fabricator behind our projects. http://i800.photobucket.com/albums/y...lic13b/036.jpg http://i800.photobucket.com/albums/y...lic13b/039.jpg |
Looking good! Nice approach for the modified subframe. I can see how this will keep the factory rigidity once the rear portion is completed. :biggthumpup: By the way, I have a nice thick piece of aluminum on the way so I can remake my oil pan. I rather not shorten the factory one. ;)
Trey, |
thanks TREY !
|
well bobby and I just got done bridge porting my 20b will post pics tomorrow really tired.
|
|
|
sorry about the pictures. quality sucks !!!!
|
That's a nice looking bridge! Can't wait to hear that in person! :bowdown:
|
I did some drilling but the port ninja BOB did those !
|
I forgot to ask, who are you getting to balance the rotating assembly since you scalloped the rotors?
|
i really love the work on the engine so far. the polished (and scalloped) rotors look beautiful - and so does the shaft! i'm always trying to find a polishing process that will give me the results you have. the ports are also gorgeous. what turbo are you planning to run, if you don't mind my asking?
all in all, it looks like you're making positive strides. i can't wait to see it complete. |
turbo is a gtx42 . thanks for the comments diabolical1 .
|
finally we got it closed up !
stacking the 20b http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...edrx7/0073.jpg all closed up http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...edrx7/0142.jpg |
