Wow, so the stock HG w/ stock bolts will actually hold additional boost levels for a while...?? Were those bolts retorqued??
Hmm, so with a new stock HG and ARP studs torqued to 80lbft, I should be alright for the same amount of boost levels then, right??
I planning on getting a Apexi NEO SAFC...
Would you know of any air tools (or electric) to get to help clean off the top face of the pistons?? Or can I just use some kind of bristle brushes or something?? Here's what I was thinking:
Air Compressor...
Definitely, once you have a chance to resurface the block (full engine rebuild) your only option for a headgasket should be a MHG. However, if just the cylinder head is coming off/out and NOT the block (my case) a stock headgasket is a safer route to go in terms of surface smoothness/RA finish...
Thanks man! A MHG would be ideal but I'm only removing the head and sending it to a machine shop to be resurfaced. As for the block, it will stay in the engine bay however, I will use a gasket scrapper and.....well, I've been searching online at Harbor Freight Tools for some air...
What's going on guys. Alright, so I got my ct2657trim turbo from DM (and not Ebay as w/ my other thread lol) a few weeks ago (my current stock ct26 is blown - badly). I haven't installed it yet cause I know I wanna try 15+psi....yet, I don't know the history of the headgasket (except that its a...
Hmm....and would a 400lph in put too much fuel (for 400Hp crank) rather than a 255lph without an aftermarket AFPR??
*Actually, nevermind that question; I'm guessing the stock AFPR would regulate/set the fuel pressure.* Hehe
Ahh okay, in that case DM does sell it too. Do you think I'll need an ARPR to support 400 @ the crank??
No problem. I'd rather take this opportunity to find a 57trim ct26. But I'll take a stock one if the chance is presented. Or when ever your ready to let go of your 57trim ct26. Lol. I just...
What's up SideWinderGX! I went on Walbro's website....they actually sell them cheaper than DM on Amazon and EBay! Didn't find the 416lph though....are you talking about the 400lph??
By the way, did you find that old ct26 in your garage yet?? Lol
Yea, I plan on doing a leakdown test in the coming weeks (as soon as the roads clear up - snow). It's not knocking; I'm just afraid that situation may be right around the corner - so my attitude is, "why wait". But yea, there are a lot of other things I could be doing to my car right now that an...
Damn, thing is, you cut into the engine block's lifespan already (20 over bore) and you did so w/ NPR pistons. Will you go 40 over w/ forged pistons (last rebuild on that block) for the second rebuild or just re-hone the 20 over bored cylinders (since its only over 1000miles)??
This is why for...
I here so many stories like this and it makes me think twice about going into an engine rebuild with my 7MGTE.
How did you end up killing the #4 bearing so soon?? What kind of machine work did you have done to the crankshaft and rods?? Was the crankshaft turned/polished?? Resized rods??
Please, have some decency, remain calm and DO NOT sell that Supra. Take the time to learn the essentials....with practice, a manual transmission will become second nature.
Ohh man, retirement home? I didn't realize you were an older person; my apologies for the joking comment above. Honestly, I wish you well on your new project and you enjoy it once finished!
Wow....I'm getting a completely different response than I expected. Well, heres the thing, I'm currently deciding whether to do an engine rebuild or not. I just ordered an Oil Pressure gauge yesterday and will observe the pressure at warm/cold idles as well as high rpms; I'll compare it with the...
Alright, so I've been a bum the past few months cause I've continuously driven around in my Supra with blown Ct26 turbo smoking up everywhere as I'm idling; it's my daily driver (besides winter). I'm tired of this life; therefore, I'm looking to get a new one (or good condition used one on this...
