Project86- My first (and probably not the last) Rebuild - Page 24

NoDOHC · 07-09-2010, 09:03 PM

Are you using 6-port housings for your NA build?
I misunderstood.
I want to build a 6-port for power some day, but the secondary ports close too late with the sleeves out and flow too badly with the sleeves in. The 6-port is a lose-lose. You can get relatively good low end, but the high end is terrible, or you can get all high end and no low end at all. funny that this is exactly the issue that it was intended to fix...

I still wish you the best. What intake manifold and carb setup did you decide on?

Yes i have 6 port that im rebuilding just in the mean time while im waiting for my special project to become more feasible.

I think ive found a good way to solve the secondary port problem or at least make it not as bad. Well i guess it was pineapple's idea. They have inserts for the secondary sleeves that make the flow alot better. Im going to use them. Hopefully these inserts work as well as they say they do. They claim something like an 8hp gain from these alone on their website.

Ive also had my secondaries wired open since i bought the car. I had full exhaust (RB header,PS, and 2.5in pipe.) HKS intake. I was making really good, strong power at 3K rpms every time. never had an issue.

Right now im looking at getting a Weber side draft set up that Mazdatrix sells. I hope it all works out. Im gettin excited for it even though its just a temporary fix so i can drive my damn car haha. Thanks for the support DOHC.

project86 · 07-12-2010, 09:35 PM

both fenders on the other kyles car are ready for primer. should be ready to spray in the next day or to depending on how things go. Ill have pics posted

project86 · 08-14-2010, 12:55 AM

OK! So long awaited update. All the body work is finally done on the "other" kyle's car. Everything is in primer except for the fenders.... we ran out of masking tape and it was like 2am

. so i went ahead and primed everything else. i dont have any primer pics yet but i will hopefully in a week or two. i was tired and had an hour commute home since i moved.

As for my car. Im still job hunting so no monies yet....However, as soon as i started gettin the cash flow its party time

ill have a rebuild kit on the way and ill start gettin some stuff done hopefully. A garage may even be in the works this spring courtesy of my folks.

chibikougan · 08-14-2010, 12:28 PM

Nice work guys. Must come oogle one a these days.

FC3S Murray · 08-14-2010, 09:51 PM

Looking great buddy! Call me when you want to stop by and pick up the paint and reducer.

project86 · 08-29-2010, 07:44 PM

Well guys it looks like I'm back In business. Just locked down a job working for a Budweiser distributor. Money has started rolling in so ill start collecting parts here and there. Might not do anything really drastic just yet because I want to save some coin so I can move back to TN in roughly a year.

project86 · 02-11-2011, 12:02 AM

Well....

For those of you who were avidly following my build thread...
Car is STILL sitting but im waiting to see what tax returns look like. After that im hoping to get things underway.

Im really missing the damn thing. Im also moving AGAIN... to TN this time. Ill be leaving MT in July. If my car is running before then i think im gonna drive it down.. if not ill have to wait a bit and trailer it down.

On a more progressive note... haukbeebs car is ready for paint.. i finally got all my goodies for my SATAjet that i need. As soon as weather permits and he buys paint we will be pre paint cleaning and masking and then its show time. Pics of it will be up as soon as its done. Thank you to all my loyal followers
