  4. QUOTE(Plan_B @ Apr 10 2007, 12:30 PM) ←Hey, if you are gonna use that term, use the spelling "ghey" wrong interpretation of the word Grant..
  5. Yes I know CHARGER69O1, I was simply replying to his specific post.
  6. Suspended Rob for 7 days because of attitude and language.
  7. they dropped the 850R in 97 because they dropped the 850... They had the V70R and the S70R in 1998...
  8. Don't encourage him Mike..
  9. Ford is too busy paying their new super CEO 28million dollars every quarter to worry about volvos racing.

  11. yeah, it's ready for weld. :)
  12. Just wanted to give it a shot. I've got all the springs to tune it with. So basically, for fun.
  13. Actually, I made it here at home w/ some tools borrowed from work! Work was the complete opposite of slow today. :(
  14. finished the wastegate rod today.
  15. again w/ the lurking!

  16. it will bolt up right to a 16T after you drill out the holes for the wastegate tomount to bracket. You have to use a different rod to mount it to the 19T. The rods on the wastegate are interchangeable. It's a Forge FMAC048 wastegate actuator for a T3/T4/T35 and it's adjustable. also, on the 19T, the wastegate will hit the CBV housing if you don't file some material out, it's an easy fix w/ a round and flat bastard file.
  17. i see you lurking!

  18. Yeah, it really does. I just tallyed everything up, I'm in at about 2100 bucks right now w/ me doing all the work sans machining.. :(
  19. Because I honeslty don't have the money for it right now. It's no big deal to pull the head.
  20. nope. Just got back from the machine shop. Feel much better w/ these guys.. The shop foreman took one look at one of the pistons and saw it had a cracked ring land.. Also discussed tolerances and which pistons to go and we all decided that the OS1 is the best way to go.
  21. I'd stick w/ 8.5:1, NM, you have a LPT.
