Okay, I provided my piston to wall clearance specs to my machinist and he is asking where on the piston they want that measurement taken. I remember reading that somewhere about the probe pistons but I cant find it. He told me that the pistons are tapered and that it will make a difference...
I think im going to do it that way too since I have a ffi. So what size is your port in the intake manifold providing the vacuum? The stock system does not incorporate a pcv valve, instead it has a metered hole in the TB for a vacuum source, correct? And if I understand correctly, your PCV...
So if you wired it like in this diagram:
You would have your IG input to your alternator going directly to battery voltage at all times. In the caption it says "alternator with internal regulator" which is what we have, but our field input (IG) is ignition powered. We cant wire it this way...
Simply running two power wires may seem like something thats self explanitory but with as many fire stories that there have been around here lately its proof that there is no two ways to do electrical wiring.
I'm glad this topic popped back up because Ive been frying my brain over it for a while now. I know this whole subject has been thoroughly beat to death on this forum but ever since this thread got locked up I have been trying to figure out this riddle:
The problem was trying to figure out...
No, you will not need a speed cut defencer. Although not advised, you can cap the Hz output of the MAFT-pro to the ECM. This is in effect a built in fuel cut defencer. With large enough injectors you can run in the high 20's of PSI before hitting fuel cut running the MAFT pro.
Oh man, that is terrible. I dont know if it would be any good to you since your non turbo but I have a turbo upper intake manifold and throttle body you can have for free if it will work.
What is the reasoning behind running your clearances a little loose, if you dont mind my asking Doward? The factory standard is 0.0008 to 0.0021 on the rods and 0.0012 to 0.0019 on the mains, and I have heard people suggest building to the tighter end of the toyota specs.
You are right, that engine stand is very tipsy, I came close to pulling the motor over a couple of times trying to bust the main bolts loose. It needs two legs. I am liking that garage set up you have got going there. Mine is cramped for now until I can convince my wife to let me knock down a...
They are Ruff Racing 279's 18".
Thanks!
By the way I like how everyone has the harbor freight cheap engine stand like I do!
