modified fuel rail, tapped thread one end, made adapter other end, because there was not enough material to thread!!!....^^^^^^
my water pipe....... thermostat housing deleted...run a remote thermostat housing in hose or..something???..CAS delete plug..^^^^^vvvv
air bleed niple will go to top of radiator....^^^^^^^
L300 sohc pump modified to clear cam belt...ce lancer pulley?..(had good offset), yep i know its 1 groove wider,im going to run front grooves only ...^^^^^^^

Dude, purely awesome. Normally i HATE pink cars. But thats not too bad. Definitely stands out!
Re: GA Galant, fitting a VR4 4G63.......
Still running stock fuel tank ?
What are you using for a lift pump, and where have you mounted it ?

Re: GA Galant, fitting a VR4 4G63.......
Yeah still running standard tank, got a little rotor style pump ( like a mini bosch 066) straight of tank outlet ( one tight fit ), pumping fuel up into surge tank.davetrees wrote:Still running stock fuel tank ?

Any chance of a pic of where it's mounted ?GLANT wrote: Yeah still running standard tank, got a little rotor style pump ( like a mini bosch 066) straight of tank outlet ( one tight fit ), pumping fuel up into surge tank.
I'm figuring where to mount a similar pump (actually a low pressure Pierburg) in my car ...... but in theory they are supposed to be mounted "wet" (ie. below fuel level, I assume because they don't self-prime?) but finding somewhere it will fit but is reasonably protected underneath a rally car is a challenge !
Re: GA Galant, fitting a VR4 4G63.......
used a long bolt through fueltank mount (from inside boot), to give me a stud to mount to...bent up a bracket to suit, cardboard one first and fixed with nut at one end and rubberized clamp at other fuel pump end!
front of car <<<<<<<< outlet u turns at fittings,then goes up through floor into surge tank in boot!
front of car vvvvvvv

Epic build
I thought of this today: As for the CAS, is it possible to get a distributor based unit (like that in a Magna?).
(I know some of the Galant/Lancer owners retro fit later electronic internals into the distributors).

The biggest problem is getting a location on the twincam to actually put a dizzy. The only 3 real options are a trigger wheel on the front front of the engine, make room for the CAS at the back of the engine bay with a hammer (easy to do in the sigma, starion and a bit more difficult to do in the GC-GD galants) and finally the best but most difficult to find option is to try and find a front mounted RVR CAS.75wagon wrote:Epic build

dummie fit up of turbo and standard manifold... on an upside down adapter
the adaptor...easy!
makes all this a bit tight for exhaust....but doable!
Update...easy fixed... swapped galant clutch cable for a sigma one and turned the cable around..adjustment is at bellhousing end now

Streuth - getting it past the clutch cable is one thing but how are you going to route it past the steering?
I dont doubt you'll find a way to do it but it wont be easy
I watched a former member making a 4 into 2 into 1 collector for a 2.6 in a GB. He ran an exhaust shop and spent months making it fit
Top Project - love the updates

You're obviously someone who 1: loves a challenge and 2: doesn't drop the ball when the game gets tough! My hat off to you, that is some seriously solid work.

This is so cool
I look forward to seeing how you thread the dump pipe past the clutch-cable / steering box / draglink
I have no doubt you'll find a way ......
