Hi all,
Thought I'd make a very brief build thread. It'll pretty much be a photo dump in relative order.
Providing fiestastoc accepts my file sizes. I'll write a description as and when.
I first strted by getting myself a donor engine and making up a wooden plate to mount the supercharger. Just as an initial guide.
I then split the engine apart (only needing the head), and left the head to soak overnight to decoke it.
I then collected a rebored block (+0.5mm) with keywayed crank, low comp forged internals, high volume oil pump and arc sump baffle from a member on here ( CarmineUK ) for a price I just couldn't turn down.
I removed the pistons and rods as they were due to be sold. The pistons being low comp was no use to me with a supercharged build and selling just the pistons on their own would have taken significantly longer. Photo'd bellow is a forged piston next to an oem piston from the donor block.
Thats all for now, until I can find a way to make my photos from my camera 10 times smaller in size so they will upload on here.
