killler setup i hope it works out, im sure it will with the guys your working with. I would swap out the 38mm gate though for something a bit bigger it is marginal at best with a 3037.

You wanna see it!?

Ive been walk drifting around my house and making screamer pipe noises! Haha

Paul broke 2 bones in his foot,then got sick and the machinest wife had a baby.Boy did pick a good month to get a motor built.

blocks been acid tanked, crack tested, decked, bored and honed. Crank collar was machined on today and journals polished. Head has been stripped late this afternoon.

im planning on doing the same thing in the near future, can you give me an estimate on what the block work will cost me?

so far all i have on the list is:

forged pistons

upgraded rods, unsure of which ones

N1 oil and water pump.

thats purely internals, dont know what im doing with the head yet, just trying to figure out what i want and what its going to cost.

Head was done on friday. Full head service,new Tomei cams and Tomei valves springs put in.

Everythings nice and pretty so ive been told.

JUN collar fitted to crank.Crank,rods and pistons were sent away to be balanced.Should be back by the end of the week for assembly.

Home stretch!! :(

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
