I did a standard rebuild on a RB30 motor for this wanker years ago. 3 months later he is whinging about it being fucked. Strip it apart and find all the ring lands for the second compression ring broken. How much boost mate? Nah nah just standard he says. Over hear a few months later after I foot the bill to fix it, drunk talk going on about fully sick skids, oh how bout that 300m power burnout old mate did before he blew that new motor, 22 pounds of boost! It was an animal! Blah blah.... Fucken asshats. No more engine builds for this loser 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Chrysler 2.2, Ford 2.3, just about every maker had one with normal hypereutectic (so much silicon they were basically 20% glass, hard as fuck but brittle) pistons. Boost was usually 7-8 PSI and they lived forever. 1 Quote Link to comment
a.d._510_n_ok Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I've been needing to haul off a washing machine and planned on doing just that this morning. As I went to load it the two stamped sides of the case kept catching my eyes. Hmmmmm.....the door panels on my '64 Fairlane are pretty rough. I just wonder...... Three hours later....... The metal panel is a couple inches too narrow but I'll make that up with some plastic push-on windlace. Kind of reminds of the all metal door panels Ford trucks had in the early 1960s. I'll have to insulate the backs or it'll be a rattle trap. BTW, you sharp-eyed military vets might recognize that red blemish on the lower left corner of the new door panel. It's a sticker the movers slap on your goods when they move you for Uncle Sam. This is the old door panel. She's seen better days. I was going to at least slice up the other washer side panel but my pure Chinisieum cutting wheel started spit chunks at me and I wasn't all about swapping it out so I put tools up and started watching Youtube videos about guys working on old cars - "And remember! Sittin' on yer @ss ain't gonna get yer project done!" I'll eventually have to scrounge up another washer (or dryer) when I go to build the rear door panels because I want those panels to have stampings as well and ya only get two stamped panels per unit. 6 Quote Link to comment
