Cody 82 ZXT Posted November 9, 2002 Share Posted November 9, 2002 Seems like it has taken me forever to even get this far but, the engine is in and it's just a matter of hooking everything up and starting the break in procedures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody 82 ZXT Posted November 9, 2002 Author Share Posted November 9, 2002 Thanks for the compliments. The turbo is a hybrid ofcourse with a stage 2 turbine wheel and a ? comprosser wheel. I had that part put on a couple of years ago and didn't ask the guy what it was . Heres a pic of it though maybe someone can tell me or give me an idea of what it is. Specs on the engine are really simple for what I hope it will do. No major machine work was done. I'm hoping I can make the motor last for 2 or so years while I slowly build-up a stroker turbo motor. New turbo head bolts Roller piolt bearing .6mm metal head gasket ARP rod bolts HD main Bolts All wear items were replaced The head was cleaned, valve job, and decked just a touch. Dial-A-Clutch 102% over stock capacity clutch Lightened stock flywheel Shanes, old JWT set-up Hopefully I'll have it running by the end of the week. My old exhaust system broke in half when I was taking it apart so now I have to rig it back together to get it to the shop to have a custom 3" downpipe made for it to match the 3" cat-back system on it. I still need to find a good cheap LSD to put under it. I'd love for this set-up to get me into the 12's and the next motor to get me deep into the 11's.

Guest Zcarsmakemyheadhurt Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Cody that car is so freakin bad ass I would trade 150hp for the looks of your ride. Bad ass homey if you measure the compressor wheel I'll tell you what you have. Alex C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
