1.6 ZM going forged

wow, geting 2 resurfaces... nice... lol

that 1.6l will scream when you get it backand running.. will it turn into a 1.7l with all that shaving and porting?

engine displacement from the bigger pistons goes from 1597cc to 1618cc and I'm sure with the p&p mpg will be a bit less.
 
but seriously if the mpg went up keeping off the boost that would be sick, even if it stayed the same I'd be happier than s***.

for anyone who cares this is kooldino's first 1.6 head being worked on, he's taking flow bench numbers before and after the machining. correct me if I'm wrong dino but the FS/2.0 stage 2 head flows 71% more than stock.

head gasket - will be stock, cometic needs a large order for them to fabricate a ZM head gasket.

autometer cobalt EGT gauge is in :)
 
my injectors came back from Witch Hunter Performance (injector cleaning company). great experience. I'll post their flow sheet when I access a scanner.

saw the block today, bored and honed. crank half put together, rods and pistons look pimp together. the belfab H-beam rods checked out ok (thank you mr bell :D)

At certain lifts, yes. Overall, no.
 
block did not need to be decked, crank was in good condition too :D

I went to the sheet metal shop today, heat shield was made to cover exhaust mani and turbo, material was 16 gauge 304 stainless steel. gonna catch up with the art design place that did my trunk design to come up with something for the heat shield. right now I'm leaning towards fancy etched out lettering "for a good time call dino"
 
haha, thats gonna be sweet.... cant wait to see this beast... we gonna have to race man..... lol.. 1.6lT vs 2.3lT
 
Looking good, looking good :).... I can't wait to see the final product.
