The Long-Awaited (by me at least) NA build thread
My engine is in one piece again!! Trans is even bolted up. Here's a list of some of the specs:
Top to bottom.
Gutted 200sx intake- emissions removed, 60mm T/B
Ported lower intake.
Isky 280deg .485" cams. Morgan's (or knock-offs) cam gears set at 0* now
Ported 85e heads, SS valves JWT springs.
260cc injectors, 7300rpm rev limit. Stock NA tune at present.
10.8:1 BRC pistons. Lightened to 380g (they were 395 and could be lightened another 20g or so but I dont have an end mill) All balanced to within 1g by machinist. OEM rings.
Eagle rods 585g
Entire rotating assy balanced
Nissan OE graded bearings
87 turbo A/T oil pump. ported. Radiused corners of entire oiling system.
5qt gated oil pan and moded p/u
Fidanza flywheel and Centerforce dual-friction clutch
Hand-made, tig-welded equal-length, step-up headers. By Jeff at Teamthump $$$
Hybrid 71B/71C close-ratio transmission. 3.0, 1.8, 1.3, 1.0 .77
Thats about all I can think of at the moment. Now the pics:
edit: a link to a few head pictures. I forgot I started a build thread a while back. Its been that long!

j/k I like the contrast between the valve covers and headers.
thanks, I had to take pics of the headers now since its ceramic PAINT. $8.00 and 10 minutes of glory, or at least untill it burns off. -

now all you need is butter's flocked z31 dash in your 510 and your valve covers will match your dash board. LOL.
looks great. low key and nice :-)
dont expect that ceramikote paint to stay on long. it's not that tolerable to weathering. -

Ignoring the nice NA buildup for a second to say, I absolutely love Mercedes Benz workshops.The bullshit stops, when the GREEN light drops.

Interesting choice on the 10.8:1 pistons, keeping the compression low-ish for reliable daily driving as well or?
