can i be the spoilt child that gets all teh stagea hand me downs

Mucko, you can be whatever you want, but unfortunately the hand-me-downs are gonna be clapped out old commo's, toyota's etc, nothing with a turbo attached.

While on the subject of turbo 's - if a fitting a bigger turbo is like a penis extension, then what does that make it when the turbo prematurely blows up??

On a more sentimental family note, I dont know about you guys, but when I log on I always scroll to the bottom of the page to see who else is logged on and say (in my head) hello to you all. Wouldnt it be good to have SAU set up to send a 'nudge' messenger style, just to say hi diddly ho fellow wagoners.

From some strange reason I feel for the Black sheep over in Perth since we've all logged off and gone to bed when he's just finished tea - must be lonely way over in the west.

So on that note, it's getting late, so good night Dad, good night jim bob, good night marylou...

You know I get at least 100 emails a day that could cure your premature problem..... :O

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
