854TGA+ Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Looks awesome Bud! My block is still waiting in line at machine shop for sleeve install. Can you put a straight edge on your block and measure how high the shop left your sleeves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulvaS40T4 Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Sleeves are 0.08mm high from rest of the block from my order. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Riker Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 How available are the diesel blocks? What generally is different about them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulvaS40T4 Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Diesel block stronger = more material and higher and not bolt on.You need to modify lots of things but its do able.Here scandinavia lots off available but because its not easy mod not so many have been made.

VulvaS40T4 Posted December 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) Dual breather, first one on stock location 1.5liters and blows to extra breather 1.5liters also and from extra breather air goes to under engine. Both breathers have return to oil pan over oil level and splash shield on those returns inside oilpan. :) Edited December 17, 2015 by VulvaS40T4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Nice work! I found having dual baffled cans worked the best in order to preserve as much oil returning to the block as possible under high rpm / load situations. Yours is much more compact :) My secondary can was equal to engine displacement = 2.3l Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamdrives Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 How much of an issue is blowby at your power level? Does the blowby at your power level totally overwhelm the stock setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulvaS40T4 Posted December 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 E85 is the reason why so much blow by on standing mile and only in 5.gear over 280km/h. Under that blow by is no problem. Stock setup works okay in 4cyl whiteblock to 500hp after that you need bigger ones. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sute Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) With respect of blowby, I highly recommend a quality belt driven vacuum pump to take care of it. Zero issues and a solid performance in my case. I have this one: http://www.gzmotorsports.com/VP104-vacuum-pump.html http://www.gzmotorsports.com/why-use-vacuum-pump.html Edited December 20, 2015 by Sute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulvaS40T4 Posted January 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) Modded dual plenum intake manifold. Earlier i had 45mm OD / 39mm ID S-shape runners and now i have 50mm OD / 44mm ID 30degree angle runners. Flow results soon. :) Edited January 1, 2016 by VulvaS40T4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Nice diffuser plenum! :) Why not open up the flange & intake ports like the RN heads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulvaS40T4 Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Restriction point of the flow was not in cylinder head port or intake manifold flange so no need to do anything to those. :) My cylinder head flows with 11mm lift 204hp (4cyl) / 255hp (5cyl) so its plenty. ;) I will now flow test my modified intake manifold with cylinderhead and also stock volvo intake manifold with cylinder head. Its hole package flow what counts. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What difference do you anticipate from the design change, or was it mostly to increase ID? 18 minutes ago, Martijn_B said: How long do your runners measure? Looks close 6" from flange to plenum to me... lets see what he says :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulvaS40T4 Posted January 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Runners are total 10" from intake valve to plenium. Just runners from intake manifold flange are 6.5". Optimum length would be 12" from intake valve on my engine but space wont allow it. Runner size is now optimal and also shape is okay now so im hoping to get 190hp flow with intake manifold on cylinder head. Cylinder head alone flows 204hp. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
