My 240 rb26 build

Recommended Posts

Why do people think you need to send a engine across the world to be built properly?? I'm not understanding this at all..

 

Stay internal pickup wetsump. Find the gremlin!! Stick to the necessities.. There is enough info out there, i'm sure Rob will help guide you anyway you want..

 

People are make 500-800whp+ on stock block RB26's for xxx sake, stop reinventing the wheel guys... pistons/rods crank collar proper assembly and a good oil pump is all ya need to make reliable horsepower

 

Obviously you have oiling issues, i would be removing everything, restrictor's  plugs etc etc to ensure this one doesn't end up like the rest... 

 

Have the blocks mainline checked...i could go on and on, but any reputable machine shop building an unfamiliar engine should be ensuring this is all within exceptable limits..

 

Your oil pressure being as high as it is... that's an issue weather you agree or not.. more isn't always better.. sucking the sump dry worries me... all that extra stress on the crank and pump for no reason.. 

 

I'd like to see you stick with it.. it just wouldn't be as cool with a 2J in it

Also on the crappy cometic gasket the rivets on the gaskets would need to be removed.

So thankfully I have a mill so port match the big boy head ports.

Nice, hope it all goes well.

 

Such a cool looking engine.

 

 

 

I like the datalog and ant-lag swtiches, might do this on mine.

 

 

 

 

Are you running AC or are you just using that panel to control the stock setup?
