merry christmas all. after the last couple of days, it doesnt feel like it. feeling for the 10 odd families who lost everything in the fire on wednesday at pt lincoln. flew out wed nite, and returned last nite to help the guys from the ETSA depot over there get power back on. some seriously lucky people, and some seriously unlucky people too

Merry Xmas all.

I'm looking at buying tomei sump baffles and a oil restrictor for the 26. Anyone here knows how to fit them? Does the head need to come off to fit the restrictor?

If I could watch someone fit them or someone over looks me and tells me how to do it, that would be awesome.

Cheers.

Head needs to come off to fit the restrictor

How much are you able to get the sump baffles for, and have you got the tomei head baffles already? I'd be doing the head baffles first esp if the head has to come off to fit the restrictor...

dont actually have to remove the head to do the head baffels, just the covers... and its mines that does the head baffels (haven't seen tomei ones)

I'll have a look at prices when I get home from crissy lunch and dinner. Thing is, instead of me just giving someone the motor and saying fit these I would like to be shown/ taught how to fit them.

iirc the restrictor goes into the top oil feed (only 1) and its hammered in just like a welch plug

the sump baffle gets welded in

the head baffle screws into the cam covers

Have you looked at the hi octane sumps? They look like a serious bit of kit and will be what I go for when I build my motor. Some nice internal gating/baffling too

I need some help. I think I've got an inlet leak.

If I rev the engine up and release the throttle , it stalls. But if I take it easy it's fine :D

I'm thinking it's the inlet manifold gasket ?

Any ideas on how to be sure ?

    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
