so im back home now from New Mexico and a short 2 months in Cali. last time i was on here i was parting out the old turbo car. its long gone now and im in the works on a new car with a new setup.
i still haven't found a decent shell so if anyone has one lemme know what you got. (any help in the right direction to a nice clean roller is appreciated)
as for the engine. if anyone remembers, i split the hell out of the poor b18b block. at first I was hoping it was just the sleeve but after ripping it down the old block sadly had to go. As well as the old oem pistons (piston #1's rings were welded to it among bits of block and sleeve)
The transmission is in ship shape (amen) and will hopefully have a new home soon.
also my old turbo is gone to a new home aswell to make room for his big brother thats on the way.(precision 6031 t3 60trim/ journal bearing)
so here is a breakdown on some of the things ill have to post here in the next month.
Block:
`84mm Darton Mid sleeves installed in new bottom end. (block going to powdercoating for a nice wrinkle black)
`manley Hbeams
`stock crank is getting worked on monday.
owe about another 300 bucks on a set of CP pistons ( havent decided on compression yet. shop said he'd get me whichever i decide after i pay em off)
`oil pan was done last week for oil tap. going to paint it this sunday(red/black/gold?)
my poor stock ls head will have to wait for a while to get touched until i have the bottom end finished. if things stay on schedule ill have it done before fall. but with no shell as of yet im kinda kickn rocks.
