Isn't it time for an update of somesort?

 

As I would hope, but not quite yet. I have been issues getting my other car on the road, and a part of my funds for the engine has to be put towards a manual steering rack. My main priority is having the car to drive before I dive into the engine more. I also need to get a 54mm socket to remove the freakin flywheel nut. that will be the biggest PITA in the whole build.

Another problem I am running into is finding a good gasket kit for doing this build. Since this will sort of be a mixture of NA and Turbo parts, it makes things kinda hard to make final decisions on what exactly to buy. I might call up Banzai and see If they would be able to put together a gasket kit for my engine based on my needs. They're less than an hours drive so I bet I will be making it a few times.

 

yeah or im using atkins he has bin very help full i just tell him what im using and he put it all together.

 

I planned on doing all atkins stuff at first. Just for my purposes it will probably just be a lot easier going with banzai.

 

last time i bought the flywheel socket i just went to sears, 54mm = 2 1/8"

however since then finding a sears is the hard part!

with the NA and turbo, the only difference in the gasket sets was/are the intake gasket itself. in the 21st century you buy S4 o ring kit (its the least expensive, except for the 20B one) and then whichever intake gasket you need.
