Hey Ben

Did you grout fill your block?

If so any issues with cooling on the street

Ps luv your car by the way

Na mate just a standard N1 Block, didnt get it bored for the JUN 2.7 Stroker, Got some custom CP pistons made up in exchange. I would only grout fill the block if your gona run methanol..

Here are the runs from townsville, some people can watch them and others cant. ill be home from work tomorrow and will upload to youtube.

Ben do you still have that moroso breather tank for sale. Actually lookin at going opposite to you and moving my dry sump tank from the engine bay to the boot. I'll need another breather back there as my current one is shared between the tank and engine breathers.

Na mate, We used it on our dry sump tank. Run a breather line from the front into the boot.

No probs. I'll get something sorted. Thanks anyway.

On a side note would you guys be keen to run at the Gambler Shoot out on the 6th of October? A mate of mine is running it at palmyra. Just check out the details at www.gamblershootout.com if you'd be keen to run some heads up and sort some v8 egos out in your own backyard. Minimum 1000 dollars prize money per class.

Hi Guys,

We are getting the car ready for the Jamboree, Any advice on what suspension setup we should be running? Currently running +0.1 in the rear toeing straight, and front is -1.5 and toeing in 1mm, thinking of changing the front to -0.5 Any Ideas?????

cheers Ben

I went backwards with running + camber in the rear. My final settings were around -.5 rear camber, slight toe in rear, but my cradle had a few tweakes aswell. Front end was -1.5 camber and a fair bit of toe (to minimise the torque steer). I also removed my rear swaybar from memory.

Cheers

J.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
