DB8-TypeR Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Should get a slimline Radiator fan, can get 10" ones for $50 or so. I run them on both my cars to clear the headers since I have thicker than OEM radiators Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keltik Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 These fans run 3 speeds and are pretty fancy, since they still fit and the engine is unlikely to move forwards unless i really fuck something up - they can stay i reckon.

DB8-TypeR Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Fair enough, my factory ones physically couldnt fit even after being attacked with a stanly knife. Have also changed the Shuttles one to a push fan rather than pull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keltik Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Fits sweet as, then the Jew turned up so i got distracted and havnt quite finished bolting it on. Aiming for first cranking session on Friday night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keltik Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Well after yelling at it for a week, I finally got round to turning it over tonight. I rescued the bolt from the bell housing using a endoscope from jaycar and a lump of magnet taped to a length of plumbing solder. Worked real well actually. Wired up the last couple of sensors and hit the key. It built oil pressure eventually, all of the ECU sensors were reporting a reasonable value and the cam sensors were syncing with the crank sensor nicely. So far everything as expected then. Next job is to get a timing light and make sure the cam sync is correctly calibrated. Its 99% sure going to be right but i would rather check before i go any further. I also need to make a throttle cable bracket out of some steel bar and wire in the idle control solenoid and throttle position sensor. After that - i just need to push the car out of the shed, turn injection back on and see if it will fire. Mildly shitting myself as i always do at this point in the job.
