Nice. Finaly some more 2.2 turbo's!
Have to do this build some time in my life.

On the other hand... drivin only 1500 miles a year keeps you happy with only 250bhp

 

[vocky]

exhaust ports look a little better

 

[vocky]

crankshaft, Dbilas valve springs and the coolant fitting for the Saab head all arrived today

What head u using?

 

[vocky]

donor engine was a brand new Saab B207, so the new saab head

 

[Dave Gilbert]

Just wondering with the z22se plastic rocker cover the cam end bit interested in how you will deal with that I had to weld the net rocker end up to suit the z22se head but I'm sure you will have thought of that and have a great plan to make it work

you blank the end , vocky made one for me so I could use the z22yh cam cover,,,

 

[vocky]
