My lude
Re: My lude
Did a bit more work over Christmas on the engine.
Seeing as the engine had been started by someone else I decided to check the bearing clearences with plasi gauge. After it was all checked. I decided to finish the bottom end off.
Time to do the top end but as I was putting the studs into the block I noticed that the pistons were put in wrong so the cut out for the valves were wrong so ended up stripping the engine apart.
After that was all done I used some clay to check the valve to piston clearence as well as seeing if the valve cut outs lined up.
This is the Inlet
And this is the exhaust
And today my Christmas present came

Re: My lude
No cams in at the moment I just wanted to see how much clearence I had to play with as I know i have overlap on vtec so it gives a rough idea how much ive got to play with plus I can see where the valves n cut outs lined up.
Cause ive seen engines where the cut outs dont line up

Re: My lude
Been doing a touch more work on the lude now ive completed the westfield, here it is in all its glory
Its only 133bhp at the wheels but it is sub 500kg getting it re-tunned in a week with bigger injectors as it maxed out the injectors at 6k, hopefully I might see 150 bhp at 7k now
It is one massive jigsaw as took it apart so long ago and dumped all the bolts in boxes with no idea what goes were so ive decided to do a dummy built at put it all together before getting the body done
