So it all started with a track day gone wrong, flatbed tow home. Spun bearing #6.
Now it's back on the road after a complete rebuild. And it's running great again.
List of major parts:
Found a short block to use crank & rods. Sent block for bore & nickasil plating. Heads rebuilt. New chains, guides, ramp, everything involved with oil flow. all new hoses, oil cooler flushed. I'm sure there is more.
Upgrades: 95mm JE pistons, now a 3.3 engine. EBS baffle, 160 temp thermo, UD pulley, catless mid pipes, and 987 air box. And of course an LN IMS bearing.
After driving it several times and around 200+ miles, it pulls hard, runs smooth and sounds great. Much stronger than before, and more to come. I think it is still in a learning mode, though that's just a guess. I live at over 4600 feet, and it now pulls as good as it did at sea level before, or better. The elevation loss is around 15% here. Overall very happy.
now I just need to find my vacuum leak...
