:D


/i know such kinda Filter for air from our fire departments respiratory equipment... it uses a kind of brassfoam... so i could think of this clogs very fast?
 
my intentention here was to use it right before the rail... ? does this minimize the flow?` i dont know.. it looks cool.. and if it protects the injectors from beeing clogged by stuff from the filter itself `?

Ah i dont know :D
 
As I am slowly amassing my parts for a similar build, I read through this thread so thanks for the info/display of photos. Nice build btw and good on you!

Quick question though; on your first page of the thread regarding the block used for the build you write that it's a block w/o (without) oil squirters? However looking through the photos of the right side of the block, pls correct me if I'm wrong but, it seems to me that it physically looks like this block has the oil bosses for the squirters... or am I seeing a mirage?

Good build and good work...

you know that normal A2-70 stainless steel hardware is at best about as strong as class 8.8? Volvo studs are 10.9 or 12.9, much stronger. Would be a shame to rip the threads out of the cylinder head or just snap a bolt because the bolts stretch too much.
 
those arent ss-bolts

its chromized 10.9 i think... but it holds good so y not?


btw... sneak preview..
