Re: [FINALIZED] Forged engine block

By using my rods and crankshaft I thought that was obvious. You use my rev2 block.

Next time a pm would be polite.

Re: [FINALIZED] Forged engine block

Just a quick bump before I invest in having the block rebuilt or parts split ready for sale.

Re: Rev3 engine loom, ecu, injectors etc

Yes the stock ct15 manifold will bolt directly to the rev3 head without modification but you will need to modify the downpipe to fit. The gen4 conversion is really popular in the states if you Google im sure you'll find out exactly what needs to be done. I never planned on using the ct15 so it wasn'...

Re: [FINALIZED] Forged engine block

Yes eventually if I kept using boost. That would then lead to an airlock and the water temperature shooting up and steam filling my rear view.

CT15 Caldina Turbo

From the engine going in my car but im using my hybrid ct20. The CT15 and manifold are a single cast to improve exhaust gas flow and give a faster spool than a CT20. Apparently this is a great turbo for the street as it spools up almost instantly and comes on boost strong from around 2500rpm. Produc...

Re: [FINALIZED] Forged engine block

It's a Rev3 block mate I don't know where the crack is but the head passed the pressure test and the head gasket was fine. The engine was pressurising the coolant eventually leading to overheating when on boost so the classic sign of a cracked block. Could drive around normally all day long with no ...

I used some silicone hose with the end of a broomstick shoved inside. Secured with some jubilee clips and it works perfectly.
