Doing some stupid shit to an old datsun head

TK, did you ever get the springs tightened up and a re-tune for 8KRPM+?

Sonic test, find a good block, grout fill to support thin bores & you don't have a problem.
Sleeves take too much rigidity out of the block, best to avoid more than 1 sleeve in a 4 banger block if possible.

With a 1/2 grout fill you can go down to around 3mm wall thickness on the bores with no problem, even 2.5mm in small sections is ok - better than sleeving.

Sorry but TK even if using JB weld? some cunt in the alfabb forums went on the cheap instead of using monosleeve setup that costs the earth. Using stock sleeves these alfa lumps usually have severe wobblyness but he seems to have solved it using Jb weld on base of sleeves, between sleeves to keep them together and instead of grout. Makes around 400hp with boost.

Well you been smashing on wheel weights for how long now ? are you pretty good at it or .....................

this made be chortle.

Some things you can learn, some you can't - I can't draw - not for shit, i could read books, i could practice, i could spend thousands of hours on it - and I would be good, but I'd never be great, never at any kind of artist level - i would probably struggle to attain a level of competency that some have in high school - but I can understand computers - always have been able to - I can 100% understand how an ecu senses and calculates crank position and how it triggers the spark to fire - but fucking points - what the fuck is going on there...

So if I ported constantly for 3 years at work I would be pretty good......

That would imply that you are half cluey.
Oh, and massive insult to TK!

Tony,

What does the header look like?

[Terribleone]

My favorite TK thread is still the isuzu bellet head 'reco', however this one comes close.

Cant wait to see what mini head is capable of when I eventually feed tony some money, and grab a number and wait in line

Link?
