Well It was a normal night on Dec 30. Just got off of work, I was nearly two miles away from home, I was turning Left onto the service road. Gave it a little boost around 15-18 then it went kaboom smoke came out of the hood stuff flew out hitting the windshield like gravel. I was like really this can not be happening, pull over then saw a disaster oil was all over the engine and a big puddle on the floor. I was OK, I must a threw a rod but get better starting to look closer. Pull the timing cover off belt snap in half one gear is tdc and the other one is facing down.I wish it was a dreaming but then I called the wife and ask her if this was in a dream, but she couldn't play along. The only thin I see is a crack block that vertical from cycl#1-2 half way in the center of the block and pretty sure my valves are bent to he*l. So that how my year ended. Happy New Years

Evo8
FP hta white turbo
Hks 264/272 with spring's
880cc & 255 pump
Greddy ti-c 3'' to turbo
ACT hdss with act fly
E-85 @ 28psi 422hp dual map for pump @ 24psi 364hp
Injen full piping
Stock block w/ 201k
Timing belt done every 30k.
So any idea where to get a cheap block and my goal is to be close to 600hp on e-85 & 500 on pump. Just need some ideas on engine build and turbo set up.
(LONG LIVE THE EVO)

 

Wow, sorry to hear....

You do the belt every 30K???

I actually have 3 extra engines I'm in the process of building, LOL

RED/Green/BBK.....
Wiseco HD and TT rods would be my guess unless you want to spend more...

 

Sorry to hear

 

Yea, I always did it cause it was simple to do and cheap. That how I got 200k + on the setup for 3 years never had and issue only regular maintenance.

 

Sorry to hear that... But, 200k isn't bad at all man. I'd keep an eye on craigslist for a block and piece it together yourself if you're on a budget... Just depends on how fast you need to get it back up and running though.

 

I figured 6 month or more to do a budget build.

 

damn 201k miles, pretty impressed actually what kinda oil do you run if you dont mind me asking??

 

Valvo10-40

 

201k and 422 whp, thats awesome. Sorry to hear about the motor.

 

geez im sorry to hear that bro. check here on the classiefied section and also check some local evo shops around your area. good luck with everything keep us updated.

 

I sure will, gotta start doing some homework on my build. I will be limited to e85. I had it made since the station was a block away. So I need a set up for pump with 475+hp

 

Going to a stroker with a 4G64 block will be cheaper than buying and rebuilding a 4G63 block honestly.

 

One question, What kind of Timing belt were you using every 30K Change?

 

hello I would like to ask for 4g63 stock valve max hp
