Hey Peter,

Looking very good, you'll be happy with the DPR crank and wedgeports ...
Don't let that equaliser pulley anywhere near water... they rust like hell Undecided

guys,
the sump i got is the wrong type...
it s a 1 1/2 quart, instead a 3 1/2 sump
would this effect the oil cooling a lot if i keep it?

thanks

 Sumps aren't the most expensive parts. If you're not in a hurry, put this one up for sale and buy a 3,5qt...
 I don't know whether it's really necessary...

 Just curious, but what size crank is it that you use? And which lifters?

 Yeah.. but what size? 82mm ? Can't find any clues for the size of your engine... Wink
 And lifters? Do you use Lube-a-lobes or cb lightweight?

its an 82 Cool
engine will be 2276
lifters i dont have yet;
but i think i will buy udo's, so i dont have to worry about break in;
my engine will be megasquirt fed, so i can tune it right after the first startup
i ll have to start from scratch when tuning, so they will hopefully give me a peace of mind Smiley

cheers, Peter

Hi Peter,

I'm shure your EFi will give you all the things you are looking for: wide powerband and lots of torque...

I'm also working on a Megeasquirt engine, but just an 1835cc for now. What types of TBs are you going for? I will be using one centrally placed plenum.

Good luck.

 There are!!

 Jenvey's and Redline Weber have IDA TB's... and some others too...
 (but someone advised me to look for other TBs than Jenvey's)

Hey Peter,

they do exist, those TB that look like 48 IDA's. I found them on the web and are produced by Jenvey Performance in the UK. Just check out http://www.jenvey.co.uk/.
These TB fit IDA intake manifolds, have almost the same dimensions and are obtainable up to 50mm...
A belgium company called AK Sport which is based in Brussels can deliver these nice TB's. They are not cheap, I allready ask price for IDF style TB in 48mm and cost 625 euro/pair.

What's the price for your current TB's?

my tb's alone were about 400, without injectors and filters
i paid 250 for the injectors
i think the ida bodies almost look the same as idf bodies;  and they cost alot more!
nobody has some junk ida's that i can use as tb's?  Grin
