Trev Posted January 30, 2011 Report Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) Looks very nice, where did you get the hose kit for the radiator, I can only ever find them for the 86. Edited January 30, 2011 by Trev Quote
dinosaur Posted February 2, 2011 Author Report Posted February 2, 2011 Looks very nice, where did you get the hose kit for the radiator, I can only ever find them for the 86. thanks man ,this project is planning out better than i expected, still there have been lots of parts i bought that i'm not able to get fitted like for example the supertech valves are 2mm oversize , too much clearence issues so now its taken a new direction, and drop in cost so thats always good. I found those lime green hoses on ebay,made by SAMCO.they make them in any colour ,there is one person selling a set at the momment the buyer is called jwracing777 based in the UK just look up 4Age parts or ebay motors and you should find it!

dinosaur Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Posted February 3, 2011 Sprayed my gearbox now just have to finish off all the other parts! next week the engine will be coming home! Quote
Trev Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 This is going to be one hot 92 sedan. Quote
dinosaur Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Posted February 3, 2011 This is going to be one hot 92 sedan. Thanks man, one day when i have money again ,i'm going to finish off the body with a respray and i don't know but was thinking about a subaru liberty 99 wing! i went to check on my engine today and they can't use the h-beam conrods in the smallport because of clearence issues.thats cool though i found out they are really not necessary as the standard ones are strong enough , so i can now make moneyback on all the parts that did'nt fit! Monday or tuesday is going to be exciting but not for my wallet. Quote
dinosaur Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Posted February 11, 2011 Finally got my engine back and so far so good i've got the engine back in and now i have to fix a thread in the gearbox, most of the parts i intended on using never got used due to clearence issues, so as it stands its had a full rebuild and few mods here are some pics at the moment!

fullygreek Posted February 12, 2011 Report Posted February 12, 2011 a set of cams in the small port really help those motors scream nice build Quote
dinosaur Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Posted February 13, 2011 a set of cams in the small port really help those motors scream nice build Thanks man , i was going for the cams ,but my pocket ran dry haha. Maybe one day soon...was thinking of 264 or 254's ! Quote
