after looking at the below post: http://www.sigma-galant.com/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=244&start=210#p61027 I've been think i maybe better off putting a long narrow sump on the filler side with some baffles. what do you guys think, or does anyone know if there is a fuel tank that fits unders the ...

got it sorted now - I think

Tank> Holley red (269LPH@4psi)>Surge tank>bosch 044 (290LPH@30psi)>ecotec

yeah I have seen your tank mods if I was using a sedan I would follow similar path, but the wagon tank design (cause of the spare wheel) I though a surge would be easier.
good to know the single pump works fine without a surge though

planning to use a bosch 044 pump as the main pump as the sigma is a carby the fuel tank isn't set up properly for efi (no sump/baffles/pump pod) so I was planning to put in a surge tank and an external lift pump. my question is what is a good external lift pump capable of keeping up with the 044 and...

cheers

anyone got any pics cheater/amgis?

also can someone point my to the talk about the s15 radiator chatter, I can't find it through the search function

Fair enough. Thanks guys I don't think I'm not a competent enough welder to weld cast though.

So I'll hunt for a new block i guess

possibly not sure how it would work I though as that would just replace the thread

the issue isn't the thread itself. there's a small crack down the thread so you can still tighten a fitting (not too tight as the crack widens) to it but the oil travels up around the thread and out the crack.

short of replacing the block. my scorpion developed a crack down the thread where the oil pressure switch live. http://img705.imageshack.us/img705/4959/sdc10174.jpg big switch next to bottom radiator hose (Stock photo from the site, not my car) http://images.gasgoo.com/MiMwMDRfMDA0Izg4ODEwNjEwMA--/a...

yeah wrong words i wrote it at 1 something this morning when i should have been asleep not really a strength/weakness thing more ensuring I rarely/never hit the 'limit' of the particular component by making it more efficient through larger volume, different materials etc. Obviously somewhere else wo...

cheers guys. thanks for the quick replies
I'd be interested in seeing that cheater, and I'll investigate the s15 option too.

yeah I thought i would be right but with the build I'm trying to cover all basis (over engineer) it so its will be right the first time

Anyone fitted a different cars radiator into a sigma. (Ge or wagon) Was going to open up a radiator catalog later today and look at dimensions but thought id check here first. Contemplating if I need to upgrade the cooling with the ecotec conversion. Kit supplier is silent on it in the instructions ...

galant transporter?

for spectrum as well.

good for Range rovers too

hey dude went looking for the pics, but I can't find them

as tubby said the wagons are base don the GE so it might not be bolt in for you.

mine was bolt in and fairly easy to work out how it went in. if I get a chance I'll pull the door card off

I have converted my GJ wagon to power windows but I had power windows from a GJ wagon (i think).

It all bolted in fine, I'll see if I have some pics

Im keeping mine registered during my conversion will save a lot of later hassles for mod plates.

thanks guys, that what Im hoping for fun, reliable easy to get parts cheap etc. yeah I'm sending off an email to them once work dies down a bit. it is pretty bad. see photo not sure how its right for a sigma https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/v/1402701_10151677209586227_650299296...

So I’ve finally pulled my finger out and started this conversion. Bought the kit about 4 years ago, but buying a house and other excuses got in the way. Anyways here it is: 1983 GJ 2.6L 5 sp Sigma Wagon SE – Texas gold https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/p206x206/969130_1015168718...

yeah thought about a scorpion diff but ruled it out due to: no lsd/lockers (bar welding it up), limited ratios, minimal after market parts, availability, strength (Stronger then sigma but may want to supercharge/'work' ecotec later, scorp diff strength comes into play). I'm also tired of doing thing...

HI guys, I've read through some some other posts re diff options. I was looking along the lines of a BW VS commo. My only other thoughts are: Skyline (maybe narrower) a VL turbo or VK v8 diff (harder to find/more expensive) Hilux (have to change to discs etc) something else? I already have a diff fr...

cheers guys, it was a lot of fun yeah couldn't nail a smooth/clean run till much later in the day, by the next day i was using the handbrake, after some tips from guys in the club and that certainly helped in the tighter stuff. Alot more practice is required though. only Brisbane club I know of is t...

I've have done a similar thing but I used a commodore mag/tyre with a piece of glass on top. I think I need to change to a sigma wheel I'll grab some pics tonight HERE YOU GO https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/v/1208502_10151572400036227_432007220_n.jpg?oh=b39f63df5e787a1d07cabb9...

Took the scorpion out again, for the first time in a while...still need alot more wheel time to get down to the times I want. but had fun anyway. https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/v/p480x480/1167910_10151567904886227_912626699_n.jpg?oh=ce63d4e6e897304c13b5e92e3dfc72c5&oe=521...

no worries thanks guys.

Anyone had any preference to kelpro or Mackay rubber?

A quick google search has indicated urethane transfers more vibration into the rest of the chassis/driveline as most of our cars are 20 years +, does this actually make a noticeable difference? (like vibrations with the balance shaft elimination (I couldn't feel any difference)) I'm using new engine...

nice, looks very clean.
thats my long term goal.

is it just a case of being creative with the wiring location?
