Hey Kelly, Originally built be SFR ( machining by Motor Werks ) 106mm JE pistons/rings, Chromolly dry sleeves, Pauter rods. There were a handful of these engines built around the same time, to my knowledge mine is the only one still running and I had plenty of teething problems, once sorted it has been great.

If I were starting a new build like you, I would be doing something like "Sid's" stroker setup he has working on and keep the bore around 104mm, follow his and "refresh" builds, some great cost effective alternative options I did not have 10 years ago.

David

hey David, would you mind telling me a little about your engine setup with the 106mm pistons? I have my motor apart and am about to sleeve/rebuild... I remember when you did yours years ago but cant recall much about how.
Thx,
kelly

The Dynomax did eliminate drone for me, I have no experience with SFR resonator

Dave did the dynomax eliminate the drone completely and do you know if SFR resonator is as good?
Thanks

Hope this helps

Hey man can you tell me how you set up your MBC. I have a tial 38 and I think I have a LR MBC. I had it set up the way LR has it but I switch the lines at the wastegate like LR says and I can't build boost. Is that because I have the bleeder type MBC?
