I was put off by the whole "shifts like a truck" thing only to drop 4.5K on the TKO that shifted like a Tractor... :(

Pissed me off as it was the new improved TKO with the better design synchros as well....:nono: the older style must have been a total pileOpoo

Squirters are fine but you do have to relieve the block to clear them, I also had to machine down the Oil Pump Drive shaft as above 8000 the rods were brushing it leaving chatter marks on the bearings.

Never seen JE's with that big notch in the skirt before....

Plugs by themselves won't increase performance/ give a bigger spark... Usually when you increase the "Zap" going in, plugs will wear out very quickly so a more durable material is needed, hence platinum and irridium plugs. I don't know anything about "silver plugs" but I'd listen to...

Yep Driver error for sure each time... I was beating the Synchro's..

Never even driven one SC ;)

T56's are a little on the weak side (keep in mind I broke a brand new TKO a couple of times) I had a T56 here at one stage but ditched the install after taking some measurements and finding it was going to require tunnel surgery between the seats. Pretty sure not all of them are created...

More than happy to help out if I know the answer to something :) I don't really get the whole "It's a secret" Clique at times.....

From memory it was something stupid like 9 Qt's.

Just pops off the ball Ed.

I use 4 thou per inch of bore for top rings and 5 thou per inch for the 2nd ring, if it's going to be a 500RWHP build I'll add 4 thou to each total to stop it nipping up a ring when pushed hard. As long as the ends are squarish and not 40/10 thou gap it should be ok, remember to dress up the...

6qt's is nowhere near the crank, the crankcase isn't pressurised so overfilling has 0 effect as long as the crank isn't dipping into the Oil and whipping it up.

Ahhhh (damn alzhiemers.. ;) ) LOL yeah it was a wakeup call for sure! I asked the guys here if they wanted me to hang around since I didn't have a Supera and no one said "go away" so here I am! Shuddering at your mention of "Wiring"

Shouldn't read my stuff it'll suck the smart right out of ya Ed ;) Weren't you moving to the USA?

Same same, mine would try to drive away doing this with the stock convertor, I played around with Launch Control in the MoTeC with the HighStall and there was no way in hell I could hold it on the brakes as the vaccum in the boosted bled off the car just drove away.

Thinking the book is talking about a "flash stall" and not a hard stall on the brakes Nick, ie: Stab the throttle and it'll go to 2500 for a split second but does pull back to 1900ish when fully loaded, flashing my 2800's give me closer to 3500 but it takes a good set of tires to hook up this...

Just waiting for a Japanese ship to sail by and Harpoon it ;) Man you guys have some bizarre laws over there watching this show, if some fat ugly slag grabbed me on my own property like that she'd end up with a steelcap boot hysterectomy...

Saw the 1st episode of this here..... Ohhh my it's even uglier when it's moving/talking.. :nono:

Just seems a really odd way to prioritise your life....
