The G32B responds well to a bit of port matching and cleaning up of the inlet manifold and side of the head. Kill off the EGR junk by blocking the EGR gallery under #3 inlet port as this ruins tuneability and how smooth the engine runs and idles. The stock carby can be tricked up to improve mid rang...

Better lay off the weet-bix when you get another rocker cover 75glnt B2 is lookin' good

plastic is shot to bits in grill, so will a little help form a hundred pack of cable ties...... https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/10378914_10152030350596326_4769225511900475992_n.jpg?oh=a5e9b40662f03a99eb2f0233e17ecb8e&oe=53F41898&__gda__=1409114621_4b125172c42...

Looks awesome tubby! ...but...it...needs...to...be...lower

Your idle is a little on the high side VG - or is this the accuracy issue you mentioned? The tacho needle jumping around indicates there is something causing a misfire. When you get this ignition fault nailed down your engine should run sweet

Doesn't look like any lateral play but yeah, something is definitely up with your distributor.

What's your coil like? Coils have a tendency to exhibit misfire and ragged running when they're tired. An oil filled coil is probably "o.k." for 10-15 years of normal driving. Get a new coil: I'd recommend a Bosch GT40'T' coil - http://www.nahux.com/NPOWER/PICS/IGNITION/GT40T.jpg ...and al...

With it installed? If so there is something really wrong. It should feel smooth between lobes when the points aren't 'breaking'. Just out of curiousity, what ignition glitches are you experiencing?

Side to side play (lateral). It will do funky things with dwell angles and can also mess with rotor/distributor cap contact.

They are a direct swap and one isn't any better than the other. If the cam lobes for the points are worn or the shaft has play in it, it won't operate at its best...

Justin Beiber is a musician? err, can we get back onto the topic now.

^ +1 on that. With the front end fresh and tight they give good feedback and have predictable road manners. I ran 15 x 7's with low profiles and +40 offset (bump steering was 'entertaining' at times but overall it handled like a go-kart. I have driven a new car with 'electric assist' power steering ...

Scorpma, behave yerself lolololol Anyway, it doesn't leak oil - it sweats POWER

The main aim of the porting was to get the port sizes more even from the manifold to the combustion chamber. From a few of the shots of the ports, you can still see some of the casting marks. Going bigger in diameter would help the top end but there would be a big penalty to pay, losing low down to...

^it looks like the same innards from a Cordia turbo distributor...

Ohhhh-kay, that's different. This carby doesn't belong in the LB Lancer (to be honest I can't identify what type it is other than it 'looks' like a Mikuni Solex). That grubby bit of clear braided hose with the bolt in it it supposed to be either the fuel return or a fuel primer/accelerator inlet. Th...

First up - what model Lancer? And second - how'd you go using the search function? Sometimes you get a hit from it...

Which hoses are you referring to - vacuum or fuel hoses?

Cool - I was wondering how this valve issue panned out.

Plenty of Colts in the local "U-PULL-IT" wreckers here. They are so unloved but one day might find their way as an alternative to the usual pick of the bunch.

^...is that a chunk of the block that's missing?

^What's the dealio here Sigmaproject?

I like the look of the flares lchilds. IMO the 'less is more' approach will be the recommendation - oh, and add a duck bill to the front (and keep the Galant green, it gives it some of that 'race heritage' feel). It will make the whole thing tie in together and make it complete

OH YEAH BABY!!! You can't buy talent

^ I should've added there is a difference between the 2 types of belt drive 32's. The early Saturns have a wider head. AFAIK LC Lancer hatches came out with the 4G32B, some Galants (GD?) had the belt drive engine and the GK Sigma 'Satellite' also ran these engines as well. If I got it wrong someone ...

This tasty morsel of ute goodness belongs to one of our members - "L200W3RK5"

...looks a bit rough but plenty tough

There are 2 types of belt driven 1600's too - the 4G32B and the G32B. The 4G32B are the early Saturn belt drives. The later ones (G32B) came out on FWD Colts and as Jordan has mentioned, the AA series Cordia GSL (later GSL Cordias used G62B 1.8's).

The Galant was able to hold it's own waaay back in the day - now the tech has been raised a fair bit. I hope he's got the skills to pay the bills - we all love to see the underdog win

You're a brave man Dave - I wouldn't be game enough to cut up my car and try my hand at a mod like this. That being said, keep up the good work
