Well I have been delayed with life and too many things going on. But after purchasing a lot of parts, it is time to start the process.
Up front big thanks to Charles and Nicole at the Type 4 Store for putting up with so many questions. Thanks to Len Hoffman for waiting on me for so long on the heads. Also to Jake Raby for his Type 4 build CD and while not giving build advice but pointing me in the right direction on a number of issues. I am afraid to look at all of the other vendor receipts as I might start to add it all up $$$$ but I will compile a list of all the vendors and add photos. So the basics. Going for a 2.6 L FI with Microsquirt. Looking to hit 9.5:1 compression. 102 mm Nickies with Custom 102mm Dished JE Pistons for 78mm stroke and 22mm pins. 78 mm crank - New this time! H-beam Rods 5.325 with Type 1 Rod Journals LE-200 heads - Valve sizes: 44mm x 38mm by Manley, intake ports flow 200CFM @ .500” valve lift, and ceramic coated. 911 swivel foot valve adjusters SPEC Clutch Kit - Stage 1 Lightened flywheel Type 4 Store Cam Part# 9500 with Parkerized Lifters and Modified Cam Gear, chromoly pushrods Intake Valve Lift: .500 Duration: 284 Duration@ .050": 250 Exhaust Valve Lift: .500 Duration: 300 Duration@ .050": 270 Mahle bearings throughout 315cc/min Fuel Injector: Bosch 0280150945 48 mm CB Performance intakes.

You will always pay when you rush.
My suggestion if you re going to put this engine together in a weekend. Clean up while you are waiting. Get everything you will need laid out on the table(s) all tools, all chemicals, parts everything. White board note pad what ever and build a check list. All tools and supplies applicators etc... must go back to the spot. Count your danm rags. I use paint pens also to mark when bolts and studs have been torqued. Torque, mark, torque mark. Clean tools put them back on the table in the same spot. Count all my rags, sponges, qtips what the not. You are an engine surgeon , you must be precise and know what, where and why. Take the upcoming days to prep well, and you will be ready to get it done. HAVE A FREAKING CHECK LIST AND USE IT! Don't know how many times I have skipped a step and paid hard for it latter. The more I am rushed the worse it gets. I built an engine once, got it fired up, and promptly left the oil fill cap off of it. That almost cost me a nice race engine. I was trying to get to an event the next day. Do not be like this bone head. Learn from my mistakes. All my car guy friends seem to have a similar story. |
