can you turn the OD down in a lathe to make them work? or is it not a circumference thing.

not sure what spec you are building to, but NHRA/drag racing specs call for corner bracing like those on the main hoop to be no more than 4" from the intersect.

and keep it up, building your own is so satisfying in the long run.

man i want those for the tube chassis car, but i am just going to cut the backs off and use lens and mount only.

and to think i gave the set on my Lago plus a second set away when i sold it.

thats all. just a tease because i am bored. he really did it though. three back to back 8.4x passes!

he took me for a spin around in it the other week while i was down there and holyfuckshit its fast. pulls like nothing i have ever felt before, and my own car is fairly decent.

Anyone got a set of forged control arms? I’m looking for another set so I don’t have to replace bushings in my stamped ones. I’d rather upgrade the tears at the same time.

forged in the rear takes a bit of work... not just a drop-in solution. gotta move the subframe one way, and the rear diff the ...

i looked at the two ABZs i have here, and that oem part is still in the crank on each of them.

so to understand, you had to use a longer one for an 016 trans, but will that stock shorter one still work with 01A trans then?

i already has a couple of these motors, and also the Fidanza FW.

what is the pilot bushing/bearing setup for it? i dont have but i need one, or one to copy or get dimensions from.

use 308 or 316 filler for that.

looking awesome as usual.

i doubt i am in time, but do you happen to know the dimensions of the input shaft pilot bushing for that clutch setup? i need one for one of my V8 swaps... :-(

welds are definitely looking better.

too bad you werent down here, i would give you all the stainless you could want for practice. Sch 5 thru 80 even.

Okay so I finally have the two in front of me.

Wrist pins are the same size (19mm) and the pin height (measured from top of wrist pin hole to top of piston):
1.8t: .900"
07k: .775"
(diff of .125)

Top oil ring to top of piston:
1.8t: .237"
07k: .125"
(diff of .112")

So they definitely won't ...

this was designed just for that work.

oh i workin on them. the LS car will be the first for sure. the tube chassis car has to be up too. the Quattro v8 Corrado i dont care about. the ABZ v8 swap into the B4 90 i wanna do, moreso than the Rado. have all the stuff for that but a pilot bushing for the flywheel. gotta have it made or figure ...

come visit and finish one of mine for me. any one. have your choice.

such restraint you show.

i wouldnt be able to contain myself and i would stab that biotch like no other.

parted.
sold.
got married.
had a kid.

drives a Taurus now.

pin height is pin height. center of pin in the piston to the top (flat part) of the piston.

for example, to stroke a 1.8T from an 86.4mm crank to a 92.8mm crank, you use the same 144mm rods but the new piston has a different (stroker only) pin height and wont work on the 86.4mm crank.

what about pin height in the piston? taking that into account?

looks single LARGE to me. i see no signature weld marks or HAZ on the tanks indicating internal partitioning. in one side, out the other.

Success!
I ended up making my own mounts out of 3/8 steel.

i think you mean 3/16" plate? 3/8" would be way thick. look at the ruler right below it.

i actually had do do a double take when i read that, because i over-build shit because i am me, but that would ...

hurry up will ya? sheesh.

another part of this build was to use NO MONEY from the other cars funds. zero. no out of pocket.

i made money on the truck from selling parts and such, so motor was free. sold the dogbox for the bulk of the funding, and other parts from the 4cyl to bump up the kitty. one thing i did do was add my ...

looks sweet! What are you doing for engine management on this one?
stock ECU on HPTuners.

That is awesome, what's your power goal?
power goals are whatever it takes to slow it down, and run slower than 10.00 and under 135. if it does it without blinking, on the WG or under, i will push it for 8 ...
