nah i reckon we can pull it off easy enough... i think Adam doesn't trust us though, he still thinks we dropped a nut in his intake.

but i'll need someone to help me put the head back on, cause i'm no good at setting up cams properly. I've only done it on little ford 1.5 SOHC's before.

Bugger.. i doubt i'll have my car back together in time anyway, might just have to sit it out.

Yeah Adam's has got hyd/lifters.. we'll just need someone who can dial in the cams right, but the more hands the better..

that way we've got more people to share the blame when the next problem happens.

the new turbo bolts up perfectly except at the compressor intake and compressor output. I have to make custom mounts for those and grind a little out of the left engine mount. it a couple of "slack" days worth of work.

Yeah thats what i was thinking, we'll take it all apart, get someone to fix the valve, put it all back togther and get someone like Ray to dial in the cams, and give him a carton or two for his help.

    • So I'm going to have to keep ignoring the 4.7 update, or whatever version it is? Poop. I was hoping you'd put me out of my misery.
    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
