correct! I used a 35mm holesaw to drill it, applying force to it and slow drilling makes this to large/long cutbits.. after opening i vacumed them ut. I basicly used a knife like this, taped to a long stick and carefully cut out a large square all way to the bottom. Then pulling it out 😉
the sensor i used on this tank is 225mm long. That gives you about 0.2mm down to the bottomfloor
Nice to find this in old oil pickup.. must have been from before my time🤣
putting it together with 1/2" main bolts, CP carillo rods and turbo pistons, think it was 9.5:1 or 9.8:1 not sure now. 2x gen 2 exhaust cams. , adjustable camwheels, 1mm oversize valves.. not ported or modified in any way.
stock rod and crank bearings (not re enforced ones) have bad experience when they start scraping. They damage the crank
@lunatic, If you found that in your engine I would change the oil cooler and make sure all of the lines have been flushed very well. For me it just wouldn’t be worth the risk that some more of that could break loose and work it’s way through the engine.
with that said, you have to realize that I come from an aerospace ‘ aircraft background so I tend to be very conservative and risk averse. 😉
At the beginning of this year I had my engine rebuilt (a lot of headwork) by a local Hayabusa expert and thinking that Covid wouldn't last long I was just going to throw it back in and get back on track.
However Covid has been around all year so after fitting the engine back in I've sent the whole car back to him to have completely new custom wiring harness + sensors + Motec M150 + Motec PDM15 + Motec C127 installed. It is an '06 chassis with original engine + ecu so im hoping with modern electronics and a modern tune it will pickup some HP yet still be reliable (last build lasted about 200hrs before doing a head gasket).
Kinda wish I had got it turbo'd now (he suggested to ditch the 1500cc and get an oem standard 1340cc bottom end and use my new head). Wanted about 300-320hp.
