does the pump prime initially when you turn on the key?

you can change the drive ratio to alter the *flow* :P

clearances and pressure relief valves set pressure, pumps just flow the oil,

sorry, I'm being an arse,

yes you can over and under drive...

45psi on just cranking a rebuilt engine is more than enough,

I would be watching the gauge like a hawk upon first start up, you dont want to end up blowing a filter or line, and monitor it...

Not sad matey, I'm assuming you have access to a CMM that'll measure all the way down a bore of a block, best I've got is a bore mic that'll do 0.0005" but like I said, for an engine thats for a...

I used, and would use again the RB25DET gearbox, its not made of cheese like the SR box,

Use the R33 front cross member, it bolts straight in and your steering rack will bolt to it, you can...

You're being too fussy matey, it's only an engine!

i was gonna say, those caps are on the wrong way. Nick to nick on the shells,

yes, the caps on backward will have made the engine difficult, if not impossible to turn, you're lucky they are...

ACL bearings are made using nominal journal and housing sizes, if you read an aftermarket ( ACL, Glyco, AE etc ) tech spec book you'll find that you have grinding/size limits, normally around...

I have machined blocks with and without torque plates, I have even machined a block that had a torque plate and was actually at operating temperature,

at the VERY minimum, I would have the piston out, the damage to the top of the block definately isnt ideal, it may however lie within the fire ring of the gasket, offer it up and check,

pistons...

er yeah, thats had/has a DET issue,

rebuild time I'm afraid matey

the main differences are the metals that make the shells up, the only time you will experience a clearance differential is if you buy a set of ACL Race with an " X " in the part number, these shells...

nothing wrong with making up brake likes/components, but when you can buy a set of pre-made guaranteed to fit parts for so cheap its not worth messing around really

just got a set off of dan, spot on,

i tried the cutting down the banjo fitting, it did work, but due to coming out of the calliper at 90 degrees, the hose fouled the wheel,

buy the right...

size is a good start, but having ALL the cam bores running parallel is another kettle of fish

as above, you cannot just swap caps from one head to another, as an engineer you will understand the line boring process,

as a fellow engineer, i have blued in " spare " caps from another head...

nice one, i'll drop dan@DB a message, see if he can help me out :)

Currently in the finishing stages of a z32 rear brake conversion on my s14, but the company that I bought the conversion off forgot to ship me the conversion hoses, and currently have none in stock, ...

As above, new cams require running in to bed them into each other and work hardens them to an extent,

It is a difficult shout when using new cams in a rebuilt engine, as holding a rebuilt engine...

google images, printer, scalpol/stanley blade...?
