I know Fiid was doing one of these, anyone else in progress or complete?
After doing the contortionist trick of adjusting valves with the exhausts in place a couple of times, I'm in the middle of pulling the HEs off my 1.7 to replace a pair of exhaust studs, and reminding myself how much easier the job would be if the exhausts were off, but thanks to the stock heater system how big a hassle that is. I hate exhaust studs pulling out (No. 3 cylinder, as usual). And all this trouble for only 80hp. 140hp or so from a water-cooled engine with hydraulic lifters (or 20K mile valve adjustment intervals) is starting to sound pretty good right now. If it were any easier to run water lines, I'd be all over this already. |

with Jon and Fiids engine, the turbos are right up front, so unless major work was done to the plumbing, that style mount would not work...... is there any way to have the mount(s) attach to the top of the engine near the front of it?? |
