...always listen for different noises coming out of the engine run it on low boost for a while untill you get to know every noise that it makes and then you'll easily be able to tell if something is wrong... A turbo engine is noisy, and to identify pinging at 6000 rpm... I read somewhere that there...

Hi
I read somewhere that only making grooves in the head/block is another method of making the HG seal better because it allows the HG to 'deform' itself to the shape of the groove

Hi
While learning about forced induction and trying to make a carb work the way the carb designer never intended to, I only got blown HGs
Lean mixtures, way too much ignition advance, melted tip iridium sparkplugs and other scary scenes...
Tough lil engines

Have you checked your coolant?
If you have white smoke it must come from somewhere...

Hi
I used high watt natural light bulbs
90/120?
Had to fit a dedicated relay, upgrade the wiring and replace the sockets now and then because of the high temps
And then the bulbs lasted a couple months before failing
Returned to normal watt bulbs (55/65)
Hope it helps
Peace

Here comes EFI

Hi
I am going to switch from carb to efi
Is it better to use one row of 4 BIG injectors or 2 rows of normal ones?
Assuming the standalone ecu can manage this config
Peace
PD I will fabricate an intake similar to the one in the old yahoo forum welcome pic
