Sandeep - happy to have a chat off this board on any ideas/help or just to chew the fat....
You can PM me and we'll exchange emails. Pico is the way to go - I'll be updating my board at some point in the future I think SSDs are the way forward. |

Time to update this thread after about 15 months away from the project
![]() I've started building up the 2413cc T4 Turbo (80mm x 98mm) and have it completed to the shortblock. 80mm Raby / DPR ion nitrated crank ![]() Crank assembly completed with Magnum straight cut gear and Scat 5.325" H beam rods with ARP 2000 bolts ![]() Crank assembly installed in case, along with cam assembly clearanced for TP DS billet pump. Green lube is Joe Gibbs Driven assembly grease ![]() Case halves prepped with Curil K2 and ready to close up ![]() ![]() Shortblock together with ARP throughbolts and starting to add some external bits. Curil T under all case washers and through bolts to prevent oil leakage ![]() ![]() 10mmx1.0 to -3AN adapter for turbo feed line in place of oil pressure sender. I will add a new oil pressure sender somewhere else in the system, possibly in the oil cooler block off plate somewhere, to clean up the exposed wiring around the engine. The oil cooler block off has had a new oil path drilled in to it to permit passage of oil. ![]() Block as it sits right now

Clutch solution based on pinched ideas from other members on this board (Wally) and the internet
![]() VW type 4 automatic flex plate with original flex plate rivets drilled out to reveal this finely machined factory peice (right). Pre-86 Chevy V8 button flywheel made by Tilton (left) ![]() Some fine machining / TIG welding by Robert Gross to mate these two peices. They were pressed together with 10 tons of force with an interference fit before welding. Lets hope this assembly holds together ![]() ![]() Rebuilt Tilton 7.25" dual disc clutch with 620 ft/lbs of clamping pressure (Ebay Nascar find) along with Porsche G50 ring gear ![]() Now need to machine this peice out of aluminim to connect the ring gear to the flywheel assembly ![]() Final unit should look like this once completed ![]() More updates as they happen ... need to keep the momentumn as the goal is to be ready for the Berlin Klassik in September

Looking great Sandeep! I really like your idea on the flywheel and clutch set up!

The issue right now will be the final weight once completed as the whole assembly including clutch and discs should come in at about 8.5 lbs. It may be a biotch to drive in traffic, but that is not the goal of the project ![]() Sandeep |

Oh la la!
What pistons cylinders are you using? Looking for a large set of plugs/jugs. Suggestions for 102/103's?

Depends on what the goal is for the motor ... you can go LN Engineering or common 103mm jugs. Sandeep |

Some minor updates .....
![]() ![]() ![]() Stainless steel hidden crank trigger using Hall sensor from http://thedubshop.net/. This setup is really clean, thanks to Mario for working with me to produce an awesome product ..... just waiting for a dry sump pulley and the long block can be considered together. Next have to work on the valve train geometry and then figure out the spark plug wire routing for the twin plug set up. Getting there ..... but its 35c where I live so that means BBQ's and beer will be taking up most of my time ![]() Sandeep |
