    Leecheater's rebuild, getting there

    Fairly safe to 10 thou under, beyond that the Induction hardening Toyota use just doesn't go deep enough so they need to be niterided which adds a good deal of time/expense as there's a heat treating/straightening process involved as well. (went through all this with my 7M cranks)

    Bernoulli Principle and Turbos

    No probs Chris, 3" works for your turbo right up to 28psi from memory.

    Bernoulli Principle and Turbos

    You need a flow map for your Turbo to work out the CFM @ a given pressure ratio then I have the data for up to 3" pipes below. 2" piping 1.57 x 2 = 3.14 sq in 300 cfm = 156 mph = 0.20 mach 400 cfm = 208 mph = 0.27 mach 500 cfm = 261 mph = 0.34 mach 585 cfm max = 304 mph = 0.40 mach...

    Bernoulli Principle and Turbos

    Pressure should remain constant, the smaller orifice will change the speed that any change in pressure is shown on the gauge.

    That's the one! :) (I had a plain cast iron 427 as a kid)

    Twin turbo 302 v8 swap

    Yeah it was but these days "LS" denotes the LS1 and later all aluminium series of engines, even back in the day "L" was the more common varient, there was an LS34,1,3 and 6 from memory, the more desirable engines were the ZL's ;)

    7m a340e (auto tranny) compatible with a 2jz swap?

    I ran a 343 full electronic valve body in mine after I went DBW throttle.

    7m a340e (auto tranny) compatible with a 2jz swap?

    It's NOT a kickdown cable... :nono: It's for line pressure and yes it would need to be set up but it's not all that difficult to do, Yes the Jz Bellhousing bolts to the 7M trans, Yes the TC will bolt to a Jz Bellhousing but as I said you have to use the 7M TC as the input splines are...

    Bernoulli Principle and Turbos

    You need to size the IC piping to keep the air under mach .4 (304mph) above this friction becomes a factor heating the charge air. re the original question, there's no "flow" through the nipple being closed at it's end by the sensor/gauge so no speed.

    7m a340e (auto tranny) compatible with a 2jz swap?

    Will work with a Bellhousing change and retain the 7M Converter.

    Bernoulli Principle and Turbos

    Air is a fluid.... Better tell all the Aviation guys the Bernoulli Principle doesn't apply to aerofoils before their planes fall from the sky... :nono:

    BHG? can you confirm this?

    Sounds like someone swapped in another timing case onto a machined block or they weren't machined together.
