Guilt-Toy Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 you need to check the crank, where the crank collar is put on is the collar flush with the crank? this cost me a crank and it had to be replaced. was it machined flush ? if not then it will need to be done.

ctnewman Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 (edited) you need to check the crank, where the crank collar is put on is the collar flush with the crank? this cost me a crank and it had to be replaced.was it machined flush ? if not then it will need to be done. Is what part machined flush? The face where the timing gear rides or another side? The crank collar came with detailed instructions from Horsepower Heaven, which was supplied to my machine shop. What happened to your crank?

ctnewman Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 Wow looks good man. Keep us posted how you go. Couldn't keep the power steering with that exhaust manifold ay? Haha, no, but I wasn't planning on putting PS in the car from the beginning. I really wanted an ATI damper with only the waterpump/alt pulley on it, but they said they don't make one.

Parag0n Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Love the Garret GT35R's, great choice of turbo, but I might of gone a bigger housing if you're using an RB26. Should be an awesome project when you're done though.
