Re: beaterX project thread

Haha, no crazy turbos just yet sorry guys Just gonna see what this standard BBX will do on a full setup for pump gas! Down the road, who knows

So I stopped by MAP over lunch today; they were concerned that the stock sleeeves would get too thin with boring....I can't remember anyone else running into problems with a simple .020" overbore but I saw the 4b11t in a whole new way today. Look at this pic. The block is aluminum. The sleeves are steel/iron/magic......tell me where one ends and the other begins:

(also, enjoy this awesome pic of turbotalon1g)


Crazy eh? From the bottom there is a very small lip that looks like part of the sleve, not like a huge sleeve that got inserted from the bottom.

More pics? I love pics. Only thing that keeps me going some days. torque plate is in, crank and everything else look happy as a clam.





I get all sorts of crazy ideas in my head when I go and visit MAP or DB or RS....I'm glad I just made simple decisions and am pushing forward with a nice basic 2.0 build. The block is decked, and boring comes next to fit in these puppies:





Sooo light. Standard JE's, .5mm/.020" over, the block will get bored today/tomorrow and the pistons fit this week. The fancy rods are on their way. I am impressed with the progress.
