[jt2ma71]

omg thats insane! its little things like that that push the envelope.

Gotta :love: the black braid!

 

[Tire Shredder]

lovely!

those black braided lines do look really nice.

did you weld that oil cooler mount to the intercooler yourself? that's a great idea. certainly simplifies the mounting situation. I also love how you mounted the thermostat directly to the cooler, reducing joints.

where's the accusump?

She's not my daughter!! She's a "friend."

Looking great in the teaser pics, can't wait to see more. Your attention to detail is amazing, makes me wish I was close enough to the NW to see all these cars.

Nope. That means GTFO.

Nice car Ron.

Hey! Let me have my moment, I don't get them very often. :cry:

Ron: Duane filled me in

I'm just glad she's a real person and not a Celeb/Actress, I have to say she's one of the most beautiful real women I've seen.

Vegas? As long as it gets done (running with no issues and tuned) before then, I'll be there.

Installed crankshaft and pistons/rods last night.
Pro-Gram billet mains with Power Enterprise bearings
Carrillo Rods and Jun/Cosworth pistons.

what benefit do these bearings have over OEM or average clevite 77 type bearings?

POWER F1 Black Metal, developed for F1 and currently
used by WRC (FIA) & F1 Teams with ZERO failures


POWER F-1 Black Bearings
1. Coated with 15μ(micron) pyramid shape overlay.
2. The bearing's surfaces area is serrate like small pyramids standing in a row.
3. The pyramid shape overlay of POWER F-1 bearing retains more oil on the surface by its construction, resulting in floating the crankshaft much better and reducing significant amount of crank shaft heat by 20 degree C.
5. POWER F-1 Black Bearings have twice the life span of other leading bearings.

I'm thinking I like those for if and when I pull my 2J apart for more goodies.

Ron were these available before you ordered?

just curious on their R&D cost for developing another platform.
