I have repaired pistons that look worse and reused them with new rings, but they did not last very long. If it was my motor, I would just get new pistons. You will lose a bit of skirt to repair those and may have a bit of slap after. Repairing and then coating them may make up a tiny bit, but...

264 or 272 means nothing, this not how you measure the size of a cam. Every motor will react to the same cam differently. Depends on the whole combination of mods.

Crap, I guess I need to return the 3 cases of redline 5w30 I just purchased. No good according to the PO of Whenmunkysfly's mk4

Yes, all headgaskets i sell get shipped between two sheets of 1/2 inch plywood. The only way to mail them.

Best way is to take a little from the head too, not just all from the cap. Of course you will need to re-shim the cam.

No need to weld them. You just mill .003 from the head and the cap surfaces and then line bore the head, assembled and torqued, back to the oil clearence you want. Of course, i assume you head is still straight.

you should add, "only the second person who has prepped the block and head correctly and still blew a MHG" Lots of MHG have been blown due to poor prep work.

Beating a dead horse with that subject. I remeber a long thread about this not long ago. More trouble than its worth.

Very very good times with that set up, upgraded ct or stock ct?

this is the sensor I was refuring to, the VPC pressure sensor. Not the Apexi sensor.

Greddy/Trust mk3 turbo specific kit here. Had to relocate the oil cooler.

I agree, 1 range colder, .025 to .027 gap. Run nothing but the best gas you can find. Do not run more than a 75 wet shot with pump gas.

what position is the pressure sensor mounted? vac line needs to be pointed straight down.

Hey! Stayed the night at the track and drowned my sorrows in beer. Car ran really slow. Only ran a 14.55 at 93 mph. No powerat all and the wastegate was open the entire run down the track. Boost would flutter in 3rd gear. Came home with no video. Why bother? Took the wastegate apart to see what...

Still plenty of time everyone, get your name on the list in the group buy section. We need some more names to get a deal on the rods!

Tomarrow is the day to test out the new turbo on the car. got my pt61 installed, tial wastegate, and new downpipe. Keeping my fingers crossed and fresh batteries in the video recorder!

Video hell, I was there in person.

that bead roller is not the same as the one in the store near me. The one I was talking about is much heavier, has a slip roll and a bending brake. Unit is about 28 or 30 inches wide and 24" tall. About 120 or so lbs.

Ian - Full power feed Bridgeport 3 or 5 hp model with digital readouts in good working used condition can be had for about 3500 to 4500.00 us dollars. Freight would kill you though. I sold my Bridgeport and rotophase when I moved. Need to pick up another here soon.
