most impresive...

 

AJa so I finished the IM:

This photo is for you guys to compare the right coated side to the left uncoated.





This is the IM coated on the bottom part ONLY





My baking chicken getting stronger hehe (IM already cured in the oven)





PAinted in the same red of the valve cover but I wont use Clear coat










Cost of the manifold= 125 shipped
Porting the IM=60
Paint= 10
Compressor rental +paint gun = 25
Ceramics= almost 20 for materials
THE LOOK OF EVERYBODYS FACE ONCE I OPEN MY HOOD = PRICELESS

 

looking good so far keep it up....

 

lol, looking too damn sexy there migue!

I like it!!

 

Thanks M@te thinks are going to be VERY interesting in this upcoming days ....

 

just out of curiosity, how hard did you have to twist the junkyard guy's arm to make him part out the ralliart engine? Every time I find a junker, they want to sell the whole engine for around $900. Thats a bit out of my range for a DIY =(

Will you consider selling your cores when your done?

 

Well the guy only had the IM (weird ha) , I will have a spare cyl head and IM once I do the install but I think I will keep them .....

 

Finished the valve springs and retainers
The purpose of the gray Dry film lubricant coating is to help the springs release heat into the oil therefore keeping them cool and ALWAYS LUBRICATED. This way they wont yield and last longer @ higher RPMS
Heres the whole deal, notice the gray colored ones are already coated ...

BEFORE


AFTER


VALVE REATAINERS BEFOR AND AFTER


Soo what is left ...
1-Camshaft to arrive
2- WRX injectors to arrive SHIPPED TOMORROW
3- EVO 8 fuel rail to arrive SHIPPED TOMORROW
4- Valve stem seals (the seller sent the wrong ones now the new ones are BLUE VITON seals)
5- INSTALL THE VALVETRAIN
6- SHIP cyl head and IM to PR for prototype testing hhehehe


I will modify the evo 8 fuel rail to work with a return less system so that I can use the wrx injectors I dont wanna mess with fuel pressure for now...
Already installed the EGR block off plate and the DREW modification for the EGR valve. The valve is installed on top of the block off plate and the stock lenght of the bolt worked. I will try to post some more pics later on....

 

Too good brother, too damn good! lol

 

migueralliart, ive been following your thread with keen interest, very nicely done so far.

i was hoping at the end (or edited in the first post) would you mind doing up a table/chart as to where you got everything, how much everything cost, and total prices for everything? it'll give me a good idea as to what ill be up against.

Thanks!

 

following, but not reading? he is planning on doing just that for us

This mods explained in this thread are not too hard to just it just require you to find a local machine shop able to do the porting and to compare prices.... If you are located in Florida California or Chicago this might be easier ....
