My engine has been overbored, i think the numbers are 82.65mm to 83.00mm, so I calculate and 2015cc engine (before was 1998cc).
What would the effects of over boring be?
I have heard peak power will be lower.
Not a bad effort, if not quite silly. :clown:
Entertaining though.

Forged pistons for turbo engines plus other bits n bobs.

i have reserved one. Can't go wrong for under £2.
Could anyone point me in the right direction please? I have never used a server before and never used windows server edition thingy program.
I basically bought it so that I could set up a secure storage for my most important documents.
It currently has two 10GB and two 40GB i think they are...
I am pretty sure the paint I have used is not good enough. Only rated to 150degC.
Will have to change to Hot paint if the rocker cover gets hotter than this.

A PC polisher kit and anthracite alloy to be added plus various other car parts.
what do people use to paint the rocker cover? I use hammerite smooth on the plenum, but have seen crackle effect paint used on gdi's car.
Any idea what paint it was?
What other jobs should i get done while it's out for a rebuild?:dapprove:
I'm thinking clutch, aux belt, cam belt water pump.
Extras if I have enough cash could be lightened flywheel, conrods.
what about boring out to 2.2 litres?
And told the insurance....I can't take the risk of not telling them anything, but how much you reckon it will affect my insurance premium?
I bent the rear axle on a fiesta hire car just before my insurance renewal and the bill came to around £600. I paid a £500 excess :dapprove: so it's...
Never tracked down what this could be. I have a clifford alarm, was wondering if it was linked to this?
It's just one wire trailing from the coil pack connector to somewhere behind the bulkhead heatshielding near bonnet release cable grommet area.
Another long shot, anyone ever tried removing these without dropping subframe?
I am hoping as they can be broken down into seperate bits that they will come out top of engine bay. Wish me luck!
Thinking about adding some ramps to my kit. I would feel safer under the car with these. Plus i think I can safely get more working space compared to stands.
Anyone had experience using ramps vs trolley jack and axle stands?
I'm after some titanium M10 studs for fitting turbo to manifold as the ones I have keep shearing. Been searching for a few days, anyone got any ideas please?
I know the jap lot like to use these...
Thanks.
Well I got back in today and I must be getting old, or its the crappy weather, but it was boring.:o
On the plus side I'm getting fitter riding my bike, I think I could live quite happily without my car now.
What's the longest anyone has gone without their car for and could you live without...
