Trev Posted August 27, 2007 Author Report Posted August 27, 2007 The carbies and manifold ended up costing $420 (AUD) which is a bargain, Hopefully they wont take too long to arrive, Someone sell me a T50 :P
beerhead Posted August 29, 2007 Report Posted August 29, 2007 Guess what I found for you second hand. Matt and I picked up a bigport engine last night and the fella said his mate has twin s/d RWD manifold for sale. I'll let you know when he gets back to me, I'll forward you the details. :D

Jordan Posted August 29, 2007 Report Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) Hey Trev, looking sharp. I'm doing a bigport NA swap into my RT40 corona, using twin solex PPH40's (bought a part finished project off MAtt (RKE_11)) I'm keeping a diary and will post up everything I've done once it's in and finished. also using Wiseco 12:1 pistons :D This is the head as it currently stands (Linkages by Rodger, though ones for webers are different. Pitty you weren't looking when these came up for auction. use "kneadIT, Auto Fix" to fill the injector ports, Look here to see how I've done it. You'll need to buy a low pressure high volume electric fuel pump, cost ~$80 or value can be found on ebay. I'm using one of those 'megajolt' built it yourself ignition computers running wasted spark, I'll let you know how it flys. Word is a 4K dizzy with some love works?

Cheers jordan I think i seen them on ebay, Thanks for the link on the injector hole filling as i was only thinking about that the other day.
Taz_Rx Posted August 30, 2007 Report Posted August 30, 2007 Kneed it is the shit!!!! I love it. High temp resistance, so you can use it nearly anywhere but an exhuast (although I haven't tried it yet!! :D ) and isn't effected by fuel.
NoPsi Posted August 30, 2007 Report Posted August 30, 2007 That stuff is gold. I used it to fix a fuel tank leak on the 4runner.
Jordan Posted August 30, 2007 Report Posted August 30, 2007 that's why I used it, petrol safe. A mante I have attempted to fix an exhaust with it. was a little too close to the engine (in the manifold) worked brillinetly for minutes, then started o smell funny. Eventually we were back to square1 no suprise really. Cheers Jordan
Trev Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Posted September 5, 2007 I have had word that the carbies should be arriving next week and i also have a T50 to pick up, Found it for 200 bucks without a shifter.
NoPsi Posted September 5, 2007 Report Posted September 5, 2007 I used to have a shifter somewhere. If it turns up I'll let you know.
Trev Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Posted September 5, 2007 I used to have a shifter somewhere. If it turns up I'll let you know. Thanks mate.
Des Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Thanks mate. I have a T50 starter motor you can have ?
beerhead Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Best part is T50's have the same shifter as a KE70 K50, not really hard to find.
Des Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Best part is T50's have the same shifter as a KE70 K50, not really hard to find. I can get my hands on one of those Twevor if ya want, Can bring it around next time I'm over ?
Trev Posted September 6, 2007 Author Report Posted September 6, 2007 I have a T50 starter motor you can have ? I was lookin at that lastnight, So i can't use the 16v starter motor? Best part is T50's have the same shifter as a KE70 K50, not really hard to find. Yeah Matt was saying lastnight, I was just looking to get a short shifter but i would settle for a stocko. I can get my hands on one of those Twevor if ya want, Can bring it around next time I'm over ? Nice, Bring the pillow and blanket and we will have a slumber party :party:
