Bwahahahahahahaha!
Snow rules!
And sucks.
But it's $$$ to me, soo it rules even more! Big Grin

And yes, CNY has the WEIRDEST weather I've heard of.
Up north a few years back, one side of the road had roofs ripped off and enough rain to choke a horse, the other side didn't see more than a sprinkle... Freak microburst or something.

So, how's RI treating ya? Find a job and hunker down?

What snow? It was 65* here all this week when we should have a foot of snow on the ground. Bass Pro shops even had an ice fishing competition scheduled for the 12th but all they had was a warm pool full of fish!

Got the flywheel finished except for some doweling yesterday,

[Image: IMG_20110222_213741.jpg]

Also turned the starter down to 110mm from 114mm to help clear the oil pan.

I'm trying to find my M8 bottoming tap to get the pressure plate on there...

Yeah, there is VERY little clearance in the design. If I did it again, I'd scooch the starter ~ 2 degrees up along it's arc.

Oh, the starter clearance was in addition to the cutout in the oil pan. If I removed any more material from the pan, I would have broke through into the crank relief areas for #4 and #5.

Put the flywheel on for a test fit with the spacer, put the starter nose in, she's golden!

Turns over with ease, engages properly... this is very very good sign.

No pics, touchscreen + grime = never.

I put snap-ring groves in the crank spacer last week, so it's now finished.

Started in on another wild goose chase, because I can, and I'm bored.

Today I threw the water pump housing on the CMM, and pulled all the feature data I could with it, mostly hole centers, the outer profile, etc.

Now I'm using the good old protractor and calipers to get what I couldn't easily get on the CMM, and completing a solid model.

Yep, I'm making a custom water pump housing, because I can.

The stock water pump will be used with the housing, and the neck will be brought out to a convenient fitting instead of the mess it is now.
The thermostat will get it's own remote housing, and an adapter flange will direct the head flow in a more manageable direction as well.

I hope to have the pump housing finished by the end of tomorrow... Hurrah for insane expectations!

~ 28IPM for most of it, carbide and 12K rpm.
Chiploads were a little over a thou a tooth for the ball stuff.
Same for the 5/16" and 1/8" flat's.

Slowest operation was the 3/4" 3 flute HSS flat endmill...

It's not the spindle speed, it's what you do with it.
I could have been running 3 thou per tooth no problem at 12K, and had a feedrate up in the mid 70's, but I don't like doing that unless I've proven a part out.
I'm a bit conservative on my chiploads, I like my tooling to last a while. Wink

It's official, radiator is going on the pass side of the engine bay, with electric fans.
Won't be able to fit one anyplace else.

I've got 30"x16"x4-6" to work with guys, so it's looking like either dual hondon'ts, or a couple scoobyroo rads stacked on top of each other, maybe the benz rad will fit.

Still need to get motor mounts made up, it's sitting on a 1x4 on the front frame rail right now, inch from the frame. I'll be using Mitsubishi motor mount rubber, the Mercedes mounts on the engine, and some welded up brackets on the frame.

I'll have to pull everything again to do the rear main seal, but it feels good to have it in there.

Fun fun fun stuff!

Eh, honda's aren't bad, it's mostly the stereotype, and the few who killed it in our eyes.
A stock 4-banger civic actually will rank a pretty good butt dyno pull, and get good mileage.

I just have no interest driving one.

I do like Mazda though, anything without pistons makes me randier than Austin Powers.

And of course, Mitsubishi is awesome. They need to cross-license Mazda's wankle engine and throw a quad rotor in something small and cramped for me...

I'm partial to the Del Sol, if it were RWD it would be a vehicle worth considering.

But on that note, the Toyota MR2 is basically a mid-engine Del Sol design..... and they were made in turbo and supercharged versions....

Well I dunno how much those cost but I had a $1600 3/4" carbide tool in the machine, Looked kinda like this     pocketing out a 6" tall block of 6061.... Was using air to blow the chips out... Well you see after I walked away the air nozzle moved and the chips collected, thus buiding up on the inside of the walls as the cutter was trying to pocket. Enough chips built up and it snapped the shank in a loud smokey destructive kinda way.

Ouch

Well I dunno how much those cost but I had a $1600 3/4" carbide tool in the machine, Looked kinda like this     pocketing out a 6" tall block of 6061.... Was using air to blow the chips out... Well you see after I walked away the air nozzle moved and the chips collected, thus buiding up on the inside of the walls as the cutter was trying to pocket. Enough chips built up and it snapped the shank in a loud smokey destructive kinda way.

Ouch

New (to me) parts on the way!

[Image: 2011-04-02_16_18_36.jpg]
Clickie for larger.
  • We've got:
  • turbo oil pump
  • turbo crank
  • turbo rods and turbo pistons
  • oil squirters
  • the baggie of bolts
  • turbo cam and rockers, and the sprocket
Not shown is the harmonic balancer/front counterweight.

Got a great deal on all of it, should be very fun to install! Big Grin

Whoa there pardner, sleeves aren't being replaced unless they absolutely need to be! No need to spend $204.85 if the hone is still left... Remember, my engine only has 106K...

Rings come out to $249.15 for the set... I'll likely clean and inspect the used ones, and get them only if needed.
All the bearings come out to $283.35... I think I'll need them since I'm going from NA to turbo crank...
Would have been cheaper to buy a used engine... Sad

My local parts guy can get Mahle Sleeves for 20 bucks a piece. Don't know how much is the added machining cost, because you'll need to deck and bore them out.
