[evocarlos]

decided to to take the original engine apart for inspection and for somthing to do
the clutch after 64200 miles looked real good


removed the main chain to get the head off


im going to throw my phone in the bin roll on june when i can get a new one lol

fuel keeps the pistons clean in the middle




64200 miles and its still got the honing marks from the factory

Just goes to show that regular oil changes and just abit of looking after and no matter how hard you drive it the engine is good it really bugs me when people say these engines are unreliable.

Really does. Same for most cars though, a lot of people will let the serving slip as they get older as well.

 

[evocarlos]

it really is in good condition i think that may have helped with the 270hp figures when it was rolling roaded
going to strip the block and thinking of changing the rods then porting the head
send the crank off and get the knife edging and balancing done once ive checked the journal size

 

[evocarlos]

pictures will be a bit better now lol just ordered a new phone with a silly MP cam on it

I can uprade mine now, but wating a bit till I get the new galaxy s5 as dodgy patch going round.

 

[Dave Gilbert]

you should polish n port the head, thats a good idea, then you should fit it on mine, and you can have my head, mines only done 73000 miles and i keep service up so should be good.

02 refresh new tarrif is the same as the old one but £7 cheaper per month and went with the lumina 1020 had the 900 for the last 2 years and apart from the broken screen cant fault it

thats the idea mate
then there will be a supercharger bottom end for sale to

 

[Dave Gilbert]

but thats no good for me (the bottom end that is). well you have your old charger aswell dont you? so u could polish n port the head n do a proper decoration job on the bottom end again n sell it complete, should fetch good money, if you got another ecu to map the new engine on you could sell the old ecu with the full plug and play engine/ecu kit.

bit more done
balancer chain removed


box of bits piling up


lower girdle bolts undone one got the head rounded off with a slip so had to hammer on a 14mm socket to remove it


main bearings showing normal wear




crank journal at the chain end looking good


the middle journal had a few marks but not detrimental

 

[evocarlos]

as im off work all week had a play with the old engine again
rods and pistons out


crank out need to measure up the journals then send it of to trevor


the difference of the b207 rods over the z22se rods so wish the z22se's had a 23mm pin




bilberry wheel cleaner and tfr on the block


chain end clean


still needs another wash


front side came out quite clean


honing tool and brake fluid


10 passes with the honing tool to each bore


need to clean the inside more

 

[evocarlos]

went back out and washed the block more
then scrubbed it with a toothbrush






it came out so clean hehe i did actually use alloy paint

the bores got honed again with a scotch pad wrapped round the honing tool for a finner finish


new head gasket to


need to buy some parts now
