Keep it STD unless your refinishing the cranks bearing journals. All the clearances should be STD unless your machining the bearing journals.

 

so std since told not to touch the crank on our car?

 

Yeah... If there's no major scoring or grooves in the crank just polish that baby up and use STD size bearings. You can use plastigage to measure the clearances. Once you start putting it together. You should be good though no need to measure crush clearance if the journals are in good shape.

 

thinking use my old motor which while old was fine

 

The motor i rebuilt had 191k on it. The head over heated. All the bearings and journals looked mint when I tore it down. Your is probably in better shape since the coolant didnt mix with the oil and break down the oil.

 

if i get the pistons .025 over do i need the bearings to be as well? Just thinking if getting block machined might be nice to be in fresh meat vs just cleaning it basiclly.

 

yes machine it 20 over so that fresh crosshatch lines can be made into the cylinders and the new rings can seat good. oh my car almost passed smog today! damn idle air control valve code came up for high idle. Turns out my throttle cable was tweaked. had to reset the ECU and didnt have enough time to drive the car to update the monitors. Will give it another go on monday.

 

Since we know you guys love carnage here is the video. I'm not sure why i didn't record it but 03lances camera did...this was first e85 pull. Not sure what tune looks like but guessing its close to same as pump gas tune. Running SD with 4bar MAP.

 

I take that back i did record it...cutting it down and ill post in a few..

 

 

Does anyone remember Robert from Speedcorps customer cars page EvoM name or build thread?

 

so what was the final numbers before the 'pop' (bent rod im guessing)

looked like 230hp/270trq... thats nasty high power for a stock motor..

 

Wasn't stock....that was zulus motor that was broken before went in from sounds of it...03lances has my car right now and might pull pan tonight to see if can tell what failed. K1 Rods Wes pistons but been making a tap noise since put it in, thought it was higher up since we first started it but looks like i was wrong. Do u recall roberts thread demon ?

 

I guess zulu built a new block because he knew the one he sold steven had a problemo. no bueno. Did 03lance get the pan off it yet?
