7agte build diary, my progress so far Options

[Kwanza26]

I believe the largest bore you can get before serious issues arise is around 83mm... and no more. The reason being, the blocks solid design, which you can't resleeve bigger nor can you overbore too much because it'll cause the cylinder walls/waterjackets, etc, to get really thin...

[playr158]

i was considering an 83mm bore on my 7afte when i go into that project
but i think with 12psi that would be cutting the walls too thin...........i think an 82mm would be sufficient w/o sleeving

update

last night at 12:34am
I won a Stand Alone engine Managment system

its an EM-3 4F from SDS

and today hopefully the wiring harness and ecu will sell along with my piggy back system

[nik]

update

piggy back came yesterday i just need to send it in to get rewired and a few extra parts

on the engine side should get the under drive pulley this week then i can got the routing assembly balanced

so everthing should be done or close to done in about 2 weeks then i'll drop the car off cause i dont have the time to drop the motor in and wire it up

so probably a month from now or so i'll be driving the beast around

UPDATE 05/25/05

ordered springs and titanium retainers cost $ 400

intercooler came in yesterday

this weekend going to start welding up the intercooler piping then take it down and have it power coated along with some other stuff

[nik]

I would kind of like to see a write up on how hard it was to get that honda b series mani to line up. That would REALLY open up our options a bit.
[right][snapback]291656[/snapback][/right]

well the b-series manifold has an oval exhaust ports and the 7afe and 4age have round so you just and to go in an inch and half and cut where the piping returns to circle then palce the flange on the motor and line up the openings tack weld a few spots on each pipe pull it off and weld them up then check for leaks.

yea cause i'm 99% goin to use that honda b-series manifold
but with an external wastegate
[right][snapback]291660[/snapback][/right]

My manifold is set up for external waste gate take a closer look
in this first pic the untouched manifold you can see the wastegate mounting point on the right side

AFTER

no the external waste gate flange is still there?? or are you talking about the inch that got cut from the original manifold?

[Kwanza26]

That's a nice looking manifold. Hope it doesn't affect the distributor placement (assuming you use a dizzy...) Hurry up and get that sh!t together nik... ;]

nope i went SDS 4-F well 3-F with upgrades
I'm just machining a plate to go over the stock dizzy place

[playr158]

Sweet! Don't need to machine a plate though nik. ;]
90339-36001
That part number is for a plug that covers the dizzy hole on the 97+ Toyota Camrys. It'll work fine for the 16V head also... ;] Go to Toyota and order it. Should be something like 5-10 dollars... I used one for my 20V dizzy blockoff...
