mini update aboot the motor and some tricks i've picked up from a number of other past builds.
engine has been built for about 3 years now, was originaly set up to make big dirty power on pumpgas. Crower rods, 92 block and crank "for those wanting the best yota can offer", 8:1 je forged pistons and piston to cylinder wall was setup on the loose side for more power but would have excessive blowby if i ever switched to e85.
It was bagged on a stand but eventuly dust and dirt made there way in, and the assembly lube got old, the list goes on as to why im taking her apart again preinstall. ever since the new arp ultra tq came out on the market ive been itching to do everything over again. bumping compression wile its apart for the hellof it.
block was tanked and baked, linehoned, blueprinted, decked, punched .020 over, oil pump ds is getting balanced and tweaked for better lubrication "courtesy or wesss beech" ...theres more lil tricks in there :wackit: who reads this anyhow, you want pics right?
crank
rods, old pistons
fresh wisecos
arp main studs
new yota oil pump ...shimmed, duh
decked front cover along with block, woot
deburred bottom end...
fairly straightforward from here on, set up ring gap, relube, put er back together...
it pails in comparrison to my plans/ worklist for the head that im also waiting to get back from porting. Wish me luck...
