Project Freeze My engine Off (SAAB B207R Supercharged)

vocky

is there supposed to be sealant on the oil track from the pump ?

nope, looks wrong at first, but they are all like it

vocky

you also need another oil way blanking plug as the saab turbo unit gets it's oil feed from there and obviously we don't need that.

oil way = 90537378

water pump drain / cylinder head temp sensor plug = 90537623

cool will order a water pump plug 🙂
i got the oil feed blocked already have a scrap head with a load of them plugs in 🙂

yeah i was thinking about the sealant thought it would be better with it sealed shut
i also think im going to get some copper plate and weld up the extra holes in the trigger wheel if i can't find a good z22se crank

did you ever find any info about wedging the waterways ? or closed deck as they would call it in the usa

pottsey

so whats the deal with the trigger wheel then carl ,whys it not liked

evocarlos

its a 60+2 and the z22se ecu only reads 6+1 🙁
you think i can find a 6+1 external trigger wheel anywhere
it is easier to just fit a 2.2 crank at this point just to stop the messing with the trigger wheel
i also see the B207R pistons and rods fit the z22se crank 🙂 that would make my engine support over 300hp lol

Ive been looking at ways of getting cranks in from the US without incurring so much tax if any! 😉

evocarlos

cut balancer shafts ahh why not 🙂

think im going to use the one out my 2.2 unless i can sort this trigger wheel then i will just stick with the 2.0L 🙂

keep your engine complete and sell it to pay for the new one.

vocky

If you want to fit a z22se crank then you also have to use the z22se rods and pistons, well probably better to use Eagle steel rods and wiseco pistons - but you could use some z22se pistons as they are good for upto 300bhp.

The Saab 2.0 rods are too short for the longer throw of the z22se crank and the Saab pistons use a thicker gudgen pin (23mm) than the z22se rods (20mm), so cannot be used.

yeah thought as much 🙁 @[deleted] so whats the difference in rod length z22se vs b207R thought the crank gave the stroke ? had saw the pins are different in the above chart
will have to wait to get a rod and piston combo

head wash time

degreaser and a jet wash 🙂

all clean now no more swarf

decided to grind all the valves in again just incase the seats were different from the polishing step

each valve got a lubed up

nice clean rim

inlet side done

the exhaust side looked better from a grind in

started to refit the valve springs

the ports should how help with flow

corsaZ22se

clean! 🙂
you didn't use the dishwasher then?

next time do it wile shes out,(y)(y)

what you should do with your old engine is polish and port the head then I could come and visit(you know to say thanks for fitting the chains) then you fit it to my engine just for practice.(y)(y)

after

sump side

the trigger wheel!

from what i can work out this one is a 60-2

the 2.2 uses a 7-1 trigger wheel (vockys pic from some time ago)

and it works like this ?

i dont like it!

Dave_Gilbert

nice 1 carl, iv been looking for a head but no luck so far.
so is it gunna be a mash up of an engine part z22se part SAAB?

Dave_Gilbert

just reading through that trigger wheel part(iv never had owt to do with owt like that) so is that like the distributor? in a way.
