Looks like its raining all weekend boys :wave:

Im out, have made other plans as there is no chance of a dry strip tomorrow, maby fine on Sunday but no chance of it running tomorrow.

Brisbane weather warnings

1. A severe weather warning is current for dangerous surf and flash flooding along the Southeast Coast and Fraser Island.

3. A wind warning is current for coastal waters between Yeppoon and Coolangatta including Moreton Bay and Hervey Bay.

4. No chance for racer boys in they toys at willowbank this weekend

Seems to have fined up beautifully this evening... typically though my devcon seemed to hold well enough although evidentally the block is cracked in a few more places then we origanally though.. so blacky is out for the weekend but will hopefully be ready for nationals next month...

Ill be out there though as support for friends and general jamboree shenanagins, rain permitting..

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
