Ka24e supercharged build

[Rustina 510]

Yeah it's going to take some major work but I'm pretty sure with ratsun behind me I can get it all done fairly quickly

As quick as your wallet allows.

[Rustina 510]

Yeah good thing I got a big raise, that's when I decided to pull the trigger on this project

[Rustina 510]

I'm hoping to drive this motor to canby

[Rustina 510]

Little update.

 

I have everything off but rod #2 won't let go of the crank and is really pinched on their.

 

And the crank looks pretty damaged, looks like I might need to get a new one, I was able to clear the rod cap that was in 3 pieces

 

Hopefully I can break it lose tomorrow

[Rustina 510]

We got the crank out, doesn't look to good, block looks pretty good though so I guess that's something positive.

 

I think I might need a new crank, does anybody do a regrind on cranks?

 

Is a de crank the same as a single cam crank

crower makes a 2.6 stroker kit, comes with crank rods and pistons. i think its like $2600 though if its in your budget that would be fun

[Draker]

Store your crank either in the block or standing up on the flywheel end. Any other way will result in further damage to the crank.

Why exactly is that? Out of curiosity.

[Draker]

Because they don't sit flat if you lay them down. It's even worse if you store them horizontally supported on the ends. They are very heavy will deflect on them selves from their own weight. Small amounts of deflection can be machined out.. but too much and you've got scrap metal.

Would that make the motor a ka26e-r?

[Rustina 510]

All they have is the dual cam stroker kit so again. Is it the same block and crank for the dual and single cam Ka?

[Rustina 510]

So the dual cam is different from the single cam. The snout is longer on the single cam because the distributor runs differently from the 2.

 

So the stroker idea doesn't seem to be a viable option sense crower stroker kit is set for the dual cam engine

Thx for the tip, I called and they said a true regrind 100$

 

Hot tank, 100$ including some additional work to the oil and water passages

 

Port & polish, 80$ a hour :(

 

So two of three isn't bad

[Laecaon]

Regrind crank, means undersizing of the connecting rod/main bearings. Its opposite of boring a motor.

[Rustina 510]

Actually what I have read a little about and was told by previously said company, they can add material "metal" back to the crank and do what they called and I repeated as a true regrind.

 

Dude was really cool and very happy to be helping with a Datsun project, can't remember his name but he was very cool to talk to

[Laecaon]

Der, I missed the word true.

[DAT510]

I'm mos def following this thread :devil:

[Draker]

You can port it yourself.

[Rustina 510]

You can port it yourself.

 

Looks like I'll have to, I'm not paying 80$ a hour

[Rustina 510]

I've been looking fr a stroker crank for the single cam, I'm really interested in a ka26e-r, only a few have ever been built as far as I can find...

[Draker]

I wouldn't waste your time on it. For that kind of cash you can do a turbo SR.

[Rustina 510]

But that's just it draker. I don't want a sr, I want a single slammer Ka with some major balls
