a70Derek's thread

That's a great collection you have there! What bolts do you use to hold the engine to the engine stand? I've been using the tranny bellhousing bolts and they're too thin for the stand's openings so the engine tilts downwards in the front =\ Yours looks a lot more horizontal than mine.

i used the tranny bell housing bolts for the top and later on i found some bolts that were long enought to thread into the block

looking good man. by the way how do you like the hks turbo. how does it spool and feel compared to a ct26 upgrade cause i just bought one and ain't gonna be able to use it till my rebuild is done and just want to know how it felt compared to the ct

well as of now the turbo is not being utilized because i need injectors to pool up more boost but otherwise it sounds great! driving around i hear a sweet spool:)

Nice car

I always thought the HKS Sport turbo was a pretty cool upgrade, I couldnt find one back in the day when I wanted one though

thanks! yeah i know how rare they are now so im keeping mine no matter what!
but hey hks_trd my only wish and dream to accomplish this is would be to make my engine bay look some what close to yours, all i gotta say is WOW! ahaha :)
