im in name a time and ill make it so!

cheers cheater
exactly what i had thought and yes i will be using the hyd cam.

always good to get a second opinion.

my newly rebuilt astron 2 in my scorpion will be receiving a turbo in due time now after lots of searching i have only very vague answers. Can i run hydraulic lifters on a carby turbo setup? (not roller rockers!) i have solid tappets on the car now basically they are noisy and need adjusting often(s...

im keen with car ready to go!!



missed this post earlier

keeping the auto mainly for lazyness i have manuals as dailys and i just want to relax and drive so to speak. fuel economy is a big one i want to drive down the coast on the weekends and such with this car. about 500k round trip are there other diff ratios available for the scorp diff??????? cheers

should have mentioned also this car will be on the highway alot will the turbo blow out my km/l figures



geezer good info i was thinking manual shifter situation rather than kickdown although the excitment of a kickdown and boost in one movement could be exciting

basically have a auto scorp new motor and a setup sitting in the workshop i dont want to go manual. SO.. main concern is at highway speed engine revs about 3000 which leads me to believe the turbo will be sitting on boost down the highway. i could be missing something here not overly schooled in tur...

inside your rocker cover will tell you a lot about your engines life the if you clean it down if it easy to clean chances is are well maintained alot of thick crud or tarnished and stained likely a hard life not many oil changes ect not to mention a quick compression test and inspection of your spar...

hi mate just wondering if still had any of this?

hey mate
im guessing you sorted al this out by now
but installed a MK triton fuel tank from the 2.4 EFI fits same mountings no drilling at all.

Hey mate
yeah i sorted it i used the knock sensor becouse the ecu wouldnt get past the fault code i simply threaded into the a/c bracket thread in the side of the block wont work very well but it stops ecu running in limp mode.


cheers

hey mate
nice work this is definatly the inspiration i need my red over black is as stripped as yours and has been for way to long.

im definatly getting back on the wagon.


cheers

ive just done efi conversion in my triton have a few gremlins 1-after i did the timing as the manual tells me to ect i watched the timing become erratic briefly then settles then erratic again ANY IDEAS 2- the car seems miss every now and then i believe the ignition is having issues as above. i have...

It is Finally done Triton running on EFI with a few gremlins but looks awsome specs aint exciting -crack tested block all checked over and cleaned - linished crank - new pistons to fit 1mm overbore -original rods - new bearings rings ect -brass welch plugs allround -late model magna head new valves ...

im in process of a efi conversion out of a 91 TR magna and i believe there is a knock sensor attatched to the intake side of the motor
it seems threaded in the block DO I NEED IT?



cheers

old ones are mostly fine just the few that sit in the coolant galleys are corroded so new set would be nice as for arp its only my daily no boost in a triton so driven slow every where anyways.

cheers
