common guys, we need measurements from the following points:

center of crankshaft to top of block

top to bottom of block (front), back to front (top and side) longest points

need lengths of spacing in the cradle (edge to edge-please specify where you measured) need width of cradle journals.

please, any help will be appreciated

I think its a case of no one just having N1 blocks sitting around. :)

Best bet is to just buy one if you need to do anything specific with one

just a bit to expensive for us at the moment mate, could someone just measure up a standard one from the specified points please?

I also would...but I only have the RB26DETT...not N1.

sorry.

would you be able to grab some of the standard block please mate? It seems no one has an N1 block at the moment.

If anyone has an rb26 block for sale near brisbane we will buy one to get measurements.

thanks for the reply's guys.

cheers

On that note, I am guessing a RB26 N1 Block is the size as the Normal RB16 block as it is the same engine, just made from stronger material.

N1 blocks are cast from the same parent material as 05U blocks. The difference is thicker cylinder walls and deck thickness to prevent bores splitting and cracking around the head studs which 05U blocks are prone to.

Thanks for clearing that up! :down:

But size wise it is still the same..?

Sure, can measure it tomorrow if you want. from which points? just length and width of the block itself?

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.

      Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.

      Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
