so, as some of you know i smoked the last motor... i mis-shifted and spun it free-revving to 11,495 rpm. not good. still, after that, i ran 3 more 10 sec passes and then i popped a window in the block when i pushed 3rd gear to 9200 out the back door for 10.7 @ 138. at least that run counted for one of my 9 second 1/4 mile license passes LOL.
Pete and Dave really helped out with this to get parts, get them here in quick time, so we can build this motor. all of these parts arrived today, we would have had them earlier if we had our minds made up on what we wanted to do this time around. so this is just a little thread to document what it takes to put an Integrated Engineering 1.8T 20v 2.0L Stroker Kit (06A) together.
we started off with a standard 06A block. it is at the machine shop getting fitted with the Billet mains i had in the last motor, hoping to be able to salvage those and the girdle. if not savable, no big deal.
parts we got from IE include;
FSI crank, 92.8mm stroke, with the oil pump gear.
JE pistons, coated on tops, 83mm bore, 8.5 : 1 compression.
JE Tool Steel pin option, internally tapered and thicker walled.
Integrated Engineerings' own rods, with ARP 625 bolt upgrade and rifle-drilled option as well.
coated bearing set.
the Integrated Engineering large bore headgasket.
other bits and pieces we got for the build include a custom two-hole drilled crank gear (available if you call and ask i am sure), some Supertech valves, and the shims for the solid lifter head will be coming too once we know what we need beside some more time. we WILL be using the FW dowel pin kit if it is available in time, BTW.
i am going with an off-the-shelf, always available kit this time because i have no time to get this together. i may have went something else if i had all winter to do it, then again maybe not. plus, i tend to push things a little i guess, and i tend to be hard on parts. so lets see where we get with this.
Joey Marstall, owner of Double J Motorwerks in Portland OR is doing all of the assembly, and is managing all of the parts acquisition and facilitating the machine work. Joey is also considered my Pit Crew chief, if i had a crew haha.
so here are some parts to look at, because we all like pictures. even though you guys here are mainly I-5 guys, just add one set in your mind
the crank;
the rods;
the pistons;
headgasket;
and stuff all layed out;
