Re: troy's 91, 90 sw20 and 86, 86 s/c, 89 s/c aw
pulled the motor apart on the 4agze with blown head. dose this look blown to any one? do i need to get new head gaskit or is there more to it than replacing head gaskit?
first time doing this . was really surprised with how clean the motor was compared to other motors iv seen. also really need to buy a engine stand to make rebuilding it easyer while putting new cams and head on it.

Can be hard to tell if they are blown when there pulled but I would say between 2and 3 was leaking form the pic's. Take head and get it checked it should not cost more than 70 for crack test and a skim. If you want to run more boost or twincharge as you had spoken about then consider getting head studs instead of bolts. You would be better off replacing the bolts anyway so studs are worth the extra few dollars. Cambelt water pump and cam seals should be done even if you dont do the bottom end. You could also take the motor from the white one you are selling as it has all that already doesn't it?
4AGZTE AW11 in progress, there is paint and I have lots of bits but still need allot more. Probably end up retired before this ever sees the road.

Re: troy's 90 sw20 and 89 s/c aw
finally got the aw11 back on its wheels in the weekend. really pleased how its turned out. track day on the 6th of december will be a good test for them.
also finny got around to putting the rear strut brace on and a fan for the intercooler. as well as starting to create a exit point out of the boot. will see how it works and go from there.
also put in the bucket seat on the old rails. a bit tall for me but will see if the new rails from techno toy truning will help once they arive. plus other goodies from them.
also put in the old steering wheel from other aw in so my knees arnt squshed against the door. started to wire up some of the gauges that will be in the car. still got to figure a few bits out like were to conect the vacume up for the boost gauge to see what boost the sc14 is pushing. and a fiting some were to put temp sencor on to see what temp the intercooler is at. so i can figure out if my ideas are working for the boot intercooler.

Re: troy's 90 sw20 and 89 s/c aw
Maybe I miss understood? Any vacuum port after the supercharger and before the bypass/wastegate. If you meant the line for the gauge then along the shift cablea

Re: troy's 90 sw20 and 89 s/c aw
Sorry I just realised I said the wrong thing. I should have said after any valve that would reduce manifold pressure. I can't see why not to tee there. Is there really only one vacuum port on the manifold?

Re: troy's 90 sw20 and 89 s/c aw
Looking real good man as you only want to know what boost you are getting to the inlet then you could just go off the pipe that runs into the intake manifold. The temp sensors I would put one just past the filter and one in the same place as the boost port that should give you the numbers you want.

well that didnt last long at track day. was quick wile it lasted though. really impressed with it was really stable and very quick out of the corners.. oil every were in engine bay via head breather and number 1 cylinder spark plug constantly clogged with oil.. so ither the rings are gone or something else. oh well thought of expected something to happen with it being an unknown condition motor. just have to build up the new one better and stronger.
