cool nice one pal a bit more here lol
had a bit of spare time so finshed the oil return off ,
first shaped the pipe
then knocked a hole in the sump
grineded dowty washers to fit flush
fits a treat
deciede to chop into the block slighty reason is , i know the driveshafts runs close , so had to make sure
poped a run of weld around it
made sure the sump was free of fileing and dirt , (thinners sorts the job out)
job sorted ,,
she will soon be spooling again ,guys
,
and ive also droped on a 3.2 r332 head and block so ill turbo that as well , will come in for a spare ,,
well i thought might as check the gearbox as i was hearing a horrible free play noise and excess play between gears (like a engine mount had gone , so here we are the insides of a 6speed 02m gearbox lol
looks nice and clean ,
diff looks beefy
beefy gears , so thought rip the lot out , and check all the bearings
everything looks realy nice and all bearings look in decent shape too with no rough or pittered bearings ,or damaged teeth
i only found some very slight wear on the input shaft
so im happy to the problem is the dam horried dual mass flywheel , as i grabbed it and there must be 3inch of side to side play and 4mm of bearing movemenet , so
waiting on new single mass flywheel, so decided to re build the gearbox ,, miht as well reuse it ...

this after more gearbox ratios and dif changeing as iwant taller gears
first to 2 6speed 02m gearboxs one is the 4motion 4wd the other 2wd
notice the differce in bellhouseings
then riped both gearboxs apart and removed the difs from both gearboxs
and removed the studs (nice little job lol)
which then looks like this
and split the ring gear of the 4motion dif
then split the other gearbox
remove diff ull see the lengh differnce as one has a spline for the transfor box
had to drill these as i dint want to damage the ring gear
30mins later
little tip when tapping these pins out , drill a piolet hole and insurt a punch , as if u try to hammer these out they cruch and go really tight in the holes
rivots removed (orderd new bolts to refit )
youll see the size differnce
then re fit and bolt it back together ,, done done lol

again mate, loving your hard work and creativity to create your own parts and make sure everything is in perfect working order. Have to admit that sometimes I (as a dutch guy) have a little difficulty understanding what you're actually writing with spelling/text talk, but still my hat goes down to you!
I love this build thread...hat off to you sir!! cant wait for you to finish it and get some videos up
cheers andy , just a idea ,,, mind my ideas sometimes seems endless , cars/engines/house hold/and evern keeping kids and animals happy lmao ,,
yep thats right phil simple, as i only aim to use 1,2,3,4 as short shifts arnt really only good for quarter mile sprints , as ull lose a second each time u change
well still no dam flywheel yet , so i thought id kill a bit of free time and split this r32 engine see how bad it is ,has a mint dual mass flywheel
removed head and my first thought was right , meaning basicly the engines crank is shot , as u can se were the piston has been tapping at the head,
removed pistonds and rod and tbh they dont look that bad , considering some ive seen in the past and the bores look good in the block
then found the problem (ive never seen mains this bad )
so tested the clyinder head and removed the 4 valves and lucky they fine , so i have my r32 head i wanted ,,,which ill build another moter up when ive more time , regards the rest of the r32 i dont think ill be bothering with it

was gonna say must have sounded like the navvies digging the mersey tunnel with all that hammering going on, whoever shovelled that one got his money's worth
lol yearh ive basicly no idea how the engine was still driving and idioled perfect with no noise until the gu was driveing it around for over a week like this lol ,least clyinder head/pistons/rods and block is good ,,
very lol yep the little gold mine head is all good to good as this will flow boost better the the 2.8 24v head lol , ill just have to make another short runner,differnert plugs,and modify the head studs , othe then that it will fit lolthose are in a bad state....
at least the head is ok though!
