RobD Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Done some more work today, been doing loads of overtime to get mire money to throw at this so sorry it's been a while since the last update! This was how the block looked this morning... These pics show the corrosin to the water ways... And how it's looking now... Now the blocks got to be sent away to the machine shop to be decked then once it comes back and I have some spare cash I'll be buying the following... Acl bearings ARP head stud kit ARP con rod bolt kit OEM piston rings TT Oil Pump For the single I'll be buying the following... AEM EMS ( probably V2!) Siemens 850cc top feed injectors High flow fuel rail SARD FPR and Gauge SuperSpark Coilpacks Brian Crowler Cams ( unsure what ones yet!) I'm still deciding what else to buy yet but those are a definite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Experience tells me you knock out all the core plugs and have a look inside the water jackets before spending money on that block, it's been run for a LOOOOONG time with no corrosion inhibitor in it and the water jackets could be very nasty, giving thin bore walls. If that's the case I'd find another block. Even a converted N/A block is better than something badly internally corroded. Hope it's OK for you, but better to know now than after it's decked and bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Thanks for that CW, I'll get some core plugs on order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
