This analogy in not very valid. The "signal" (pressure) that is being created, is not created until the fuel pressure regulator creates a restriction to cause the fuel FLOW from the pump to back up. More/bigger pumps create more flow and have higher flow capabilities at higher pressures.

Brian, do you have any pictures of your installation of this kit?

Most of you guys seem to be perfect candidates for adding a Bosch 044 external, and upgrading the feed lines as well. The Bosch is louder than a Walbro, but no where near an Aeromotive, and the Weldons are even worse (and expensive too). The Bosch is OEM quality and designed for continuous use...

Hmm, how is it possibly that a larger radiator causes delayed warm up? Please give us mre information on this.

There are some faults in your post. First, the steam holes are actually the coolant passages between the block and the head, they should line up with the head gasket you are using. Only on a 7 bolt 4G64 would you be blocking off holes in the deck, I am pretty sure we are talking about 6 bolts...

Pics?

More room for turbo, piping, exhaust, one of these... :sneaky:Jay

Well......there just isn't much room back there.

Leon, It is great to hear your comments on this. Also, I have revised my post above. You are correct, most of these applications are for "limited use vehicles. The picture in the first post is the prototype on my truck project. I will do some official testing on it when I get the next...

It works fine. We recommend making two extra holes in the gasket though. There needs to be *no* coolant holes in the front and two in the back. Depending on your setup, you may need to drill the gasket or *epoxy the holes in the block*. Not really much science to it. Let us know if you need...

Yeah, for now, Buschur is the only place to go to, but be prepared to pay a pretty penny for an alternator relocation kit.

Too aggressive timing advance?

I have measured my rod bearing clearance to be .003" (out of spec') with Clevite bearings and .002" (within spec') with Mitsubishi bearings.Jay White

Nice.Here is a comparison pic of Rota Attacks in bronze 17 x 7.5 +45mm offset, with Kumho 712s in 235 40 17.

Why not buy the spring & retainer kit from FP then? You know it is a capable combination. Rather than finding out down the road that you're floating valves.Jay White

The 4G64 block in my 1990 Might Max (5 speed, SE model) has a knock sensor hole. It might be a "wide block" though, I don't even know.

Cometic recommends installing this gasket on a clean, dry, smooth, flat surface.

In case it is not too late for some of us, this is the email reply I got back from them after inquiring about a revised model Mustang throttle body, "WE'LL EXCHANGE IT, HOWEVER, IT MUST BE RECEIVED BY ACCUFAB IN PERFECT CONDITION/UNUSED/NEVER BOLTED ON, NO BOLT MARKS! IF YOUR PRODUCT MEETS THIS...

Yeah, I am having a difficult time getting my point across. In this picture, http://students.washington.edu/jlhobbs/car/excamgear.jpg, if you line the dowel hole locations up, both gears will have their timing mark at the same spot, but the gear teeth will be offset 1/2 tooth.So remarking...

I've been there too. That's how you learn right? In my case I just flipped it the right way and reassembled it. Everything was fine. As long as there are no cracks, you should be okay. The surface under the driven 5th is just clearance anyways. the gear seats on the shaft.Jay

Yes, we are agreeing. I just wanted to reiterate that since you cannot move the belt 1/2 tooth, you will need to buy the 2.4L DOHC cam gears for valve timing to be correct. Remarking the 2.0L gears doesn't correct this either.Jay White

Torque spec's?25 foot-pounds, and be careful, any more than that will break those bolts off.Jay

This makes my head hurt. It is NOT possible for valve timing to be correct on a 2.4L 4G63/4G64 "hybrid" without the use of the $20ea Galant cam gears (buy 2 exhaust gears) or aftermarket adjustable gears. The DSM cam gears have the dowel position in an incorrect location for this setup. This...

Block - tank, resurface, bore, & hone with torque plate $230.00 Crank - polish $32.00 Crank - balance $100.00 Rods & pistons - hone & fit pins $40.00Some place in the boonies, but they have a 4G63 torque plate. I double checked all clearances before assembly. I hope to start it next...

What is a bushing? Are you talking about the synchronizers & hub/sleeve assembies? Also, so it's clear for others, those are stock aluminum shift forks in that picture.Jay White

Awesome information. Do you have distances from the bracket you made to the caliper surface & from your bracket to the knuckle? I would like to make a 1 piece set of these without using washers. Again, thatnks for this information.Jay White

I believe most use 2.3L to signify a "stroker" and 2.4L to signify a 4G64.Jay

Remarking them to check ignition timing would be fine. But the cams will still be off location unless you get the Galant cam gears, as I understand it.Jay

Yes, I used pin 109 for the tach. You cannot use and stock wires for boost input. I hate to have to expalin this but the stock ECU "calculates" boost by airflow and volumetric effeciency assumptions. There is no stock MAP sensor or anything and if there was, there is little change the ZT-2...

I have a 1g, with my WBO2 sensor in the stock O2 sensor position as well, since July. No problems as of yet, it was a 45 minute install. BTW, I am runnign a Zeitronix so a new sensor is $30 from a VW dealer.Jay

I have a DIY-WBO2 kit minus the board. I ended up getting a Zeitronix unit since I couldn't get a board. If anyone want the kit email me an offer, [email protected]

This is incorrect. The smaller cylinder head volume increases the compression ratio. Wiseco makes shelf pistons that will correct this for ~$400. You can use stock rods, since they are the same part (& part number) as turbo DSM rods, which have gone 500+ hp.Jay

Ehh, I actually think they are tapered BPT (British Pipe Thread) which is common on JIC (Japanese) fittings. As far as I know though, NPT will go in, and probably seal, only the pitch is different by 1 thread per inch. More or less an FYI.Jay

Do you have any pic's of this? Specifically the main hoop fitment. I am lloking for somethign as low profile as possible.Thanks, Jay

The FRH Manifold was *designed* to use this spacer. That is why the spacre comes with the manifold when you buy it new.Jay

Brian, Per the NHRA, 68.8cc, http://nhra.com/tech_specs/engine/blueprints/MITS-91T.rtf If I get bored I'll try to verify this with a head I have. It is definitely larger than a 4G63 head, hence the super high CR I got when I put a 4G63 head on a stock 4G64 engine. Looks like I'll...

I used the thick black moly lube, like the ARP stuff on the bearings and pre-lubed the pistons/rings/bores with ATF, Dextron III :) Per my machinist.Jay

That is backwards. The fitting on the water pipe is the turbo return, feed is on the T-stat housing.Jay

Nice to see projects like these, a little outside the box. I finally completed my 1990 Dodge D50 4G63 head swap, turbo install, LSD rear end, and ECU & associated wiring. Here are a few pic's of the final product. I've found out recently the stock truck clutch was not designed for boost, so...

I was told by probably the most knowledgable/reputable DSM "turbo" shop, that the SBR manifold has ports that are too large and actually hurt performance. Any thoughts on this?Jay

Since this thread is in the "Advanced Tech" area, do you mind telling us a little about the FP3&4 cams? Not so much spec's and numbers, but more like who these cams are intended for, what cams they are comparable to, engine/turbo setup requirements, etc.Thanks, Jay P.S. If you need...

I put a 6-bolt DSM DOHC 4G63 head on a '90 SOHC 4G64 Mighty Max block. Bolting it up was the easy part...Any specific questions?Jay

Are they still in business?

Would a manual tensioner also keep ignition timing more precise? I would think it would.Jay

It's a coolant line for the water-cooler oil cooler. It connects to a barb fitting on the thermostat housing, I would assume and of the fittings pointing toward the radiator would work, but one above the thermostat would let the oil warm up faster in the winter time.The wires should go...

Okay what about this, an FP3575 vs. the FP T67?Both use the same cold side, T04S 0.70 A/R compressor housing, 67mm 75lb/min. GT40 compressor wheel. Only the FP3575 uses a GT37 turbine wheel in the cast FP 0.70 A/R turbine housing, and the FP T67 used a T4 P-trim turbine wheel in a T31...

Call them. They won't bite.Jay
