Porks bike carbs and boost project

[Belly93]

[pork]

Literally had it balancing on few mm off sill either side, luckily it survived the trip

 

[h701micra]

Cg13 powered mini

 

[padraicR]

True , but remember all these favours can come back to help you when you need it thats the way i always look at it

 

[l_jonez]

Cg13 powered mini

Agreed!

 

[pork]

Gunna start on engine this week, jus been going thru bits n bobs, and realised there's numbers on the cam holders, is there a certain plane for each of them? Or can I bolt anything anywhere?

Yes I know I should of made a note of what went where

,line bored neil inlet 123 etc exh123 etc, arrows pointing at the chain

 

[l_jonez]

should be marked with a I or E followed by a number, I - inlet E exhaust starts with No.2 nearest the cam gears

[ edit- frank got in there first]

 

[pork]

You the man frank, thanks.

Rebuild gunna have to be done later (for obvious reasons)

Jus gunna either use 2 gaskets, or get decomp plate, bolt it all up and have a go, see how it holds up.

Now I've popped an engine and know how easy it is to take out, it doesn't bother me, so ginna move on as quick as possible

 

[pork]

Here's me dizzy, how do I lock in the advance? Do i take off all vac mechanism,

 

[frank]

there,ll be some bobweight springs underneath neil (centrifugal thingy)

 

[pork]

So shall I rip out vac stuff, take out weights and weld it in place with it fully advanced?

 

[h701micra]

What management system you going for neil?

 

[frank]

So shall I rip out vac stuff, take out weights and weld it in place with it fully advanced?

does the vac mech push and pull neil ? if it extends when you blow into the diaphram then you will get boost retard eh.
and you only need to lock the centrifugal bit underneath eh (strong springs or use wire or a tack of weld ?)

 

[MicrAde]

Leave the vac mech so you still have full vac advance at low revs/no boost. Rather than locking the centrifugal advance you're better of limiting its movement as per link I posted.

 

[pork]

Still unsure what I'm gunna use, jus getting low down on what's involved.

Finished the mods to the intake manifold today

As you can see, had to file it a bit to fit, luckily there's quite a bit of metal left on the pipes

Couple of questions, what are each of these tubes for? The white plastic with 2 pipes, the pipe to the right of that and the grey plastic plug?

 

[Skinner_87]

Two plastic tubes are for the carbon canistor evap system mate (no use to you just pull the hose off)

Pipe on the right of that is the return for the TB waxstat coolant pipe... you will need to bridge this with the pipe coming from the large metal coolant pipe that joins the water pump on the cylinder block.

Grey plug i think is the engine temp / coolant sensor.

PS i had to file some metal from the BoggBro manifold as well as id asked them to move the carbs over to clear / keep the brake servo.. never had a problem from it just a little fiddly.

 

[pork]

Thanks mate !!

Glad the mani fits, saved a lot of money

 

[pork]

Finished sump

Only had blue paint left lol

 

[h701micra]

Looks good. Dont suppose you could get me a couple of those fittings

 

[pork]

Cheers

Here's link to my eBay shop, tell me what your after

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Air-technique

 

[h701micra]

I'll get you a list put together tonight I'm on the turbo build too. And the plenum build. So similar fittings to you so far really

 

[pork]

Just remembered something important.

I'm missing the plate that goes between the engine and gearbox bell housing, anyone know what I'm on about? If so anyone got one?

I'm using the cg13 with the k10 g/box for now, but will get a k11 box in future, so would this plate fit if I got from a k11?

 

[h701micra]

Ive got a k10 plate?
"Bellhousing cover plate" iirc

 

[pork]

Cool, should match up, how much you want for it?

 

[h701micra]

Not really thought about that bit.... a few fittings

 

[Noddie]

you can leave the plate off if you like pork, frank and I have run without one for years. more cooling for the clutch eh

 

[pork]

Haha, sure

Doesn't dirt and **** get in?

 

[h701micra]

Doesn't dirt and #### get in?

I'd say so
Remember frank isn't normal

 

[frank]

Doesn't dirt and #### get in?

nah, mine,s got extra ventilation too neil

 

[Stani1029]

Doesn't dirt and #### get in?

Im also running without. With removing gearboxes lots in situe that plate has caused some misery so its dumped every time

Never seen anything get in

 

[pork]

Haha cool!

 

[pork]

Which brand is best for a clutch? (Cg10)

 

[h701micra]

Personal opinion really what type?

 

[pork]

Dunno, never even fitted a clutch before !!

 

[Stani1029]

LUK FTW as i always hear frank say iirc......

 

[pork]

Il be on it tomorrow then

Also need a cg10 flywheel if anyone has one

 

[h701micra]

Well you've got a few to choose from its been a long day technical bits another time. Personally the cheaper clutches have always served me well but we use cc clutches 'competition clutch' on our evo

 

[Stani1029]

Theres a stock clutch i had fitted to my turbo engine which done unbelievably well. You want me to find the brand and let you know, maybe you could source a 1.0ltr one....

 

[pork]

Yes please, if you don't mind

 

[Stani1029]

The clutch is national, yellow box, blue triangle with national across it

Cheers mate, il look out for it

 

[h701micra]

Like this

 

[Stani1029]

Exactly that one yes

 

[pork]

Nice one, thanks

 

[pork]

I need a cg10 flywheel! Can't move on without it

Anyone?

Also, what are each off these hoses, and which ones can I do without?

I've also gotta get a belt for water pump, there seems to be a tensioner missing, but think I remember frank not using his, what size?

 

[h701micra]

Frank runs a loose belt to reduce parasitic loss iirc.
They all look like water pipes to me. If they're facing backwards I'd say heater matrix. Forward radiator the rest ive no idea

 

[pork]

I know which ones are radiators, but no clue on the others, think the heater hoses come from the thermostat on the head, correct me if I'm wrong

 

[h701micra]

Wouldn't know... but frank will. My heater pipes come from the block then again my engine is "special"
