Well I made the drivers side pipes with the engine on the stand , so was a massive punt But as luck has is thay fit nice! This round of engine in is to check that all 6 pipes and the collector thats made fit . To confirm that the engine mounts fit , like the triangle cut out is to undo the nut with ...

Today's mission http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo27/samandotto/Mobile%20Uploads/20160312_104750_zps1v5fw6za.jpg Some bits to fit http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo27/samandotto/Mobile%20Uploads/20160312_113045_zpsxud7su71.jpg And the drivers side , this the other side , made this out of the c...

No thats a auto bellhousing

Yeah it will make life easier Here's what I came up with http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo27/samandotto/Mobile%20Uploads/20160305_144000_zps7jxf8isg.jpg http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo27/samandotto/Mobile%20Uploads/20160305_144006_zpsnhypdh6w.jpg http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo27/sam...

Well what im hoping for and what I can get away with is two different things Short answer , I don't know yet ! I need to put the engine back in fit everything back up and fabricate a water outlet , and sort the cooling system , as hot water comes from the back of the heads it will determine where th...

Nice work mate , keep up this pace and it will be there in no time
So get welding !
Cheers stealth

But if you still want to do you own , I have a alloy bellhousing narrow block to borg warner box , would be good for a cut and shut
Cheers stealth

Yup fits nicely , thanks again
Did some reconstructive surgery on the scuttle panel , blending it into the firewall

Came up nicely I think
Cheers stealth

So before loading the engine back in for another test fit , I have been working on the engine bay and generally cleaning up I thought I would make a start on the scuttle and firewall / tunnel So here's a before shot http://i358.photobucket.com/albums/oo27/samandotto/Mobile%20Uploads/20160303_125443_...

Yeah more than likely !
So finishing the engine bay is taking way longer than expected , so I will just keep chipping away at it , until it's done
Cheers stealth

Vitamin c , is the best I reckon
But you didn't mention
Magenta (nipple pink )
And competition orange , but im sure its the same as vitamin c
Cheers stealth

Look into a color called
Vitamin c was on R/T chargers
Cheers stealth

So its a single cam ?
Cheers stealth

Big port or small port ?
Evo 1-3, vr4 or rvr?
Or evo 4 onwards ?
What are we talking about here
Cheers stealth

I just used the search function
And found that AH112 claims that a magna flywheel definitely can be used !
All narrow astrons use the same flywheel
Apparently!
Cheers stealth

Apparently not , so I was told
But I would like to know why though as I thought the same thing
Cheers stealth

No not at all , actually quite enjoying it really The facepalm was more in frustration , I don't know when or where to stop, it seems like im getting further away from the finish line but its all essential work in my mind Currently tossing up about using an ally block to save more weight , but where...

So today's effort was removing the wiring harness from the engine bay Im rerouting it out either side of the car outside the bay , under the mudguards One for neatness and the main reason to keep the wiring away from heat ! So that involves stripping the harness rerouting all the associated wiring ,...

Its possible, I got a couple of different options here , ready made at least two different tailshafts , if it doesn't work , before you go getting one made to suit
Cheers stealth

Thanks mate , its on order
So I have started to do some work on the engine bay , as I noticed the the strut towers are pulling away from the body !
So a bit of panel work and welding out the lot , fixing some holes and generally tidying up and might throw some etch primer around
Cheers stealth

If its the same gbox yes
But there are many different gboxs as in shifter spots
So depends on if its the exact same box you will have no problem
Make sure there the same
Cheers stealth

Love the orange !
And good work so far , just take it one step at a time soon enough it will be finished
Cheers stealth

Interesting about the flywheel , I never realized that one
And what exhaust / turbo manifold , intake and thermostate housing are you planning on,
Should be a good little rocket
Cheers stealth

The one on it is
257 x 32
Cheers stealth

Nope doesn't fit , its for the single cam
Thanks anyway
Cheers stealth

Did you get the flywheel with the engine ?
Would have to be the hardest part to find for the 6 bolt engine , what gbox are you going to use?
Cheers stealth

And
As for your engine choice , under Nocp
Any 4g is the same "series or family " so the astron is ok as long as cc, s are correct
Cheers stealth

Couldn't agree more I still got mine ! And im 40 this year the car has seen 300 thousand ks and Now undergoing another rebuild ! It was a trusty daily for many years and now my toy My only regret , and advice is , take heaps of pics , of everything that you do , its progress in years to come you can...

Bit of a update Ive been making a wiring loom for the engine and visiting the wreckers in the local area Picked up a oil filter housing with a in built thermostate for a oil cooler ! Nice Also got the water in/out of a rwd v6 but it will need mods as the block is smaller on my engine (73 is the same...
