@chris r high compression and built for boost arnt often used in the same sentence

@cletus Can floating discs be certified for road use? Please

There are some long sections of "nice gravel" so speed is an important thing to keep the day moving

@Ja1lb8 nice! That's exactly what I'm looking for. Ms85 are same as ms112. Vented disks and sliding pin calipers.

Are the 504 disc for the ms65 spindle or ms112 disk replacement.

I I'll be going upto a 15 anyways for tyre options . I'm looking into putting an hz caliper over ms112 vented disks reason being there is decent pad options for hz calipers. They're the same as what's on the car now just a bit wider to accommodate the wider disk Just need to see how the mounts sit

Did some measuring up to see what discs and calipers could work to make this whale stop at speed and boy these solid rotors have been hot lol

Left it with them and on Monday the exhaust seat got big valved for a 36mm valve . Before After It's upto 70% of the intake cfm so getting pretty much to where it needs to be Little more work deshrounding in the chamber and tidying up in the port to go Then big valve the intake and a set of Manleys

Made a better bore adapter and valve opener Did some more this evening with Dave the gc at chs Exhaust is a bit whimpy. Made some good improvements with minimal material removed. Seat will get machined Monday and we'll see if it's responds positively. Likely needs oversized valves

Who's had pistons made lately? Cost for 6? Anyone in nz do anything? Can any manufacturers just "change the top" for higher comp vs a total new design? Chur

@anglia4 If you drop the pan and clean as much as you can when you refill it pop the return line from the cooler off and pop it in a bucket so when you start the motor it will pump the 2 of 3 liters out of the converter . It'll probably run dry before it runs clean so careful not to run to long . Refill and repeat till jts clean. Then top up to set level That way your not putting that shit from the converter straight back into the new fluid

I had the same issue with the pontiac when we started using it. But it blocked the filter with clutch material..... Then needed a rebuild Perhaps you found the reason it was parked up

@anglia4 How longs it been sitting? The filter could just be blocked. Especially if it's probably never had a trans service.

Maybe the starter was jammed and it jammed the motor? Either way great success

Probably better off just taking the motor out and seeing what's actually stuck. Turning it over with rust in the bores is just going to root the bores for future use. If it really hasn't done much use then it might just need a hone and some rings .

A quick visit to vtnz or the post office ie would also have given you an answer

Body color is clear over base

Little bit of short side work and a light guide trim resulted in 177cfm Has good flow numbers from .300

Picked up a later non emissions 5me Seems to have ports the shape I have been trying to achieve Will flow test during the week.

Flow tested a stock port and valve . Maxed out at 137cfm Stock port with a profiled valve got upto 142cfm Filled the port with plasticine making the port smaller but better flow got it upto 144cfm but much at lower valve lift. And significantly improved .300 and .350 lift cfm. Then took the top off the valve guide and took a wee bit of material from the port where the coner is and got it upto 150cfm at .350 lift. And flatlined through to .500 I had opened one port up a lot and have made the diameter too big but flowed that one too and that was 175cfm but from .300 lift it was already doing 150cfm Have done another port with plasticine and not gone as wild with the port size but have opened up the restriction around the valve guide and will flow that during the week ans hopefully get it up around the 170-180cfm stock port filled and ported and guide trimmed

Arc too Makes 4

Just keep peddling when you shift just don't push hard when you do. They still need to be spinning to shift

There is specific parts wash fluid

Just getting it ready to go on a flow bench
