And B32 pump has dual pickups, you need that too. Hell yeah that's what I need!! I might put my welder to the test... a b32 pump requires a b32 sump ? I can get the pump but not the sump....

Yeah not so much, all the parts have arrived to complete the build but I'm somehow lost a few little items to install the timing guides, everything was bagged and tagged but a couple of little bushes and c clips so I'm waiting for them to come in that have gone back order dam it.. in the mean time got myself a shitter of a boat in need of repair to keep me busy, got it all planned out it will be epic dont worry I hope to have some good updates soon...

Garett 103 Report post Posted March 25, 2017 So finally the parts arrived to finish the timing chains, I installed new oil squirters then proceeded to install the timing chains, when I removed all the guides from the old engine stripping it down I could have swore the guides were alloy with plastic coatings, turns out they are all rubber and just gone very hard and turned to plastic along with the two bushes holding the plastic guide on the right of pic two... Moving along, the head gasket rings sat pretty close to the bore in places i had to file some of the gasket off at the locators on top of the block to get it to sit just right as the pistons come just above deck and didnt want any interference. I still can't get over how big the ports are on these heads, it's making me think about the exhaust mani that I've got, I'm going to have to do some serious die grinding to match ports Cylinder head torqued 35nm 70nm then 105nm Rolled the engine over then went to look at the oil pump then remembered that the pump I is probably in a bad way, I pulled it apart and found very bad scoring and pitting all through it, so went though our stock and found a m52 pump that had a pump wheel, I then found to mount it I had to slot the rear bolt hole about 4mm inwards, also swapped the spring and sleeve from the m3 pump into the m52 so the insides remain the same sort of, I swapped the sprockets over and tig welded the nut to the sprocket and to the shaft, job done On the top part of the cylinder head applyed some lock tight red sealant replacing the o-rings in between then proceeded to install the cams then I remembered someone saying I have to run a cam trigger wheel on one cam and didn't get any trigger wheels from vac motorsports, they are really expensive so figured I try make one, as there is a 2mm spacer with spline that goes on the end of the cam shafts between the sprocket plates I figure that seens as there is 2mm I can reduce the spacer to 1mm and then cut one of the trigger wheels 1mm from the mating face then I get my 2mm and everything will line up apart from my cam sensor, the trigger will sit 1mm closer inwards to the head as it used to sit after the spacer, I may be able to space out the sensor with a washer time will tell. Last photo I just sat the covers on, sh*t these engines are cool ? 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garett 103 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Ordered oil restrictor, should be here end of this week and all going well my triggers will be done, in the mean time I'm going to match my intake ports as the B32 head has 1mm bigger ports than the B30 head so there is a slight step up coming out of the itb's which I will die grind the spacers in between the two do this.
