Ugh, I heard back from the guy who makes them. Those arms are 650 Euros. Pretty though.

Look at the end of this thread. http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewto...44237#p1244237 This guy's LCAs look promising.

Which guy did you hear back from? The original link told me to ask MBT if they were making them?

H2OSB January 23rd 2017 17:50

I wrote to the guy in the link given by Wally. I just used the contact page on his site. Guy by the name of Mathias Bartsch. Seemed real nice based upon his response to me. Said if you pre-order, you can pick your color. Also says they're for race use only.

Wally February 11th 2017 15:18

Got a bit further :)

freakin' gorgeous!

owdlvr February 26th 2017 01:28

That is beautiful.

effvee February 26th 2017 03:45

Nice,very nice Walter. Question, how are you going to pick up your oil? Sorry I meant where are you going to draw your oil from?

Correct me if I am wrong, one of the plus of the 13 fan is quieter running. By your fan using one more blade, does it produce more CFM?

graham February 26th 2017 08:34

Wow looking good Walter

Wally February 26th 2017 16:35

Tnx guys,

Francelle, no idea on the fan blade numbers.
There is an oil tank up front with big /16 line to the dry-sump oil pump. Its all just test fitting, although the engine now hangs again in the correct spot :):)

effvee February 26th 2017 20:02

Wow AN-16, your pump gearotor or gears, what size gears:). I have a 38mm gear pump however Pauter sells a 26 mm gearotor pump. Then, there's the Autocraft dual savage pump. Walter I envy your steadfastness, $$hit I'm overall the place. Much love in your progress Walter.:(

owdlvr February 26th 2017 23:29

-16?! Whoa, that's coolant sized! We're running -12AN front to back for oil on Warwick's MK1 Escort Rally car, and that is borderline nutty. Well, you definitely shouldn't have any issues getting oil to the pump!

Hmm, maybe its AN12 after all? yeah, must be considering your reactions :shocked:..sorry to have mislead you guys!
Its the braided line going upwards right side of the fan in the picture above. I also use it for turbo oil drain, which is indeed borderline crazy haha!
Nice one Dave!

Oil pump is my old Thorsten Pieper dry sump pump: 26/38mm. Its on the 5th engine already! First engine with this pump blew up (the old 2,7), so it even consumed some ceramic lifter (remember Schubeck?) particals... but it still gives me plenty pressure ;)

BTW Today my new turbo shipped... I have loads of pre-fun already :)

No words needed! 👌🏼

Wally March 2nd 2017 14:48

Tnx Roel!

I'am happy as can be!

Yes indeed it is!

Steve C March 3rd 2017 20:27

Beautiful turbo, so you have the turbine speed sensor as well

It has the provision for it, but as I have enough things to figure out and install, using that option is very low on my list atm ;)

Steve C March 7th 2017 01:00

What size EFR did you go?

According to the Birdman, exactly the same as your son's?

I also wound some heat wrap at some more critical points (its all the tape I had LOL):

effvee March 8th 2017 00:48

Hi, possibly re-route that -16 above the exhaust, maybe not between. I can hear it cook:o.

owdlvr March 8th 2017 02:40

love a well-wrapped header...

Yeah, it shuold keep temps under control.

Unfortunately, the header design prevents using the bottom plugs, so no twin spark operation in N/A mode anyways..

I had not thought of that tbh..

Made a lousy vid today of the running in, sound was absent due to my crappy phone which had probably noise overload...

effvee March 10th 2017 06:55

Hey Walter, was that you in the race? If so, it revs nice. I noticed you touched the red line. If so, that G-50 is a real plus.

Since at the present, you are not running dual plugs, how do you protect the threads of the spark plug holes?

Congrats again sir:D

Yeah, on YouTube some other vids of 5 years ago and older probably show up when you check out the above vid ;)
I'll try to make a better vid as I found out why my proper camera stops after 4 seconds video (too low quality SD card...).

I have just turned in the appropiate plugs in the bottom holes. They are not that expensive. easy peasy :)

Tnx!

Wally March 11th 2017 14:28

It runs now with proper sound ;-)

Nice, very nice:shocked:. Looks good to:)

Wally December 5th 2017 08:55

In the meantime...

I had it on the dyno :D

Pretty decent result, although I had hoped for even a little better.

Atm, the topside (intake, exhaust) has been removed in order to upgrade the clutch and to make the turbo primary twin-scroll header. Turbo has found its place as well:

So far for now.

ricola December 5th 2017 13:16

Great to see it back on the road Wally :)

effvee December 5th 2017 15:59

Hey Walter, how much boost? What are the graph in good old American horsepower. I see that you have utilized your inside parcel tray, now you got some more room right on. Double disc four puk question why not the 8 puk? Will the engagement be more harsh for the street. Is your build transforming more toward pure track and race? That flywheel/clutch looks like it means business.:D Right on, looks NICE WALTER:)http://s86.photobucket.com/user/effv...l?sort=3&o=112

2000 US horsepower :D :lmao:

effvee December 5th 2017 18:53

Wow:cool:

Wally December 19th 2017 17:32

IIRC, 4-puck is all Tilton sells these days. The former shape of full disk which had 6 divided parts on the disk, just isn;t available anymore.. The centers are stronger too btw, with 8 instead of 6 bolts iirc, so more little changes have been done to the design at Tilton.
I'll just trust them to know what they are doing ;)

Just reinstalled the Cup brace and for the first time, the scatter shield I had made a while ago already (needed for certain tracks here):
