I haveth ordered my roller door, garage is plastered so the car will be moving from the container shortly. New short block is done, still doing the head, only been 9 months but you can't rush freebies. Will get onto my uncle and see where my inlet manifold is too I'm so keen to get a fire in the old kerosene burner

Hey guys im losing my s*#t with this setup. I have about 20 different opinions of how to run it. (Had issues with original sc blow through) im going inlet -> turbo -> throttle -> supercharger -> intercooler -> inlet manifold plenum. If anyone has any light to shed as i dont want to be doing this again. Some people are saying the throttle response will be s*#t but its really unavoidable to do it any other way im also installing a bypass valve and a bov after the turbo. I hope it works. I watched a video of a lotus setup this way and the sound made me moist

Right have made the manifold, reported the head on the car (dodge with rag in the port and a vacuum close to the burr) because I ported the manifold out. Made the fuel rail for the 98 injectors, made the rail and mounts for the meth injectors. made up the pipe from ic to plenum chamber, mounted all the coil packs, started wiring it up. Put the msd under the passenger seat (autronic assures me the computer wont be effected by it being close unlike the wolf). I have put the methanol cell in the boot, Started running another larger steel fuel line from the boot. Making brackets for the fuel pressure regs. I cant post up the pics because photobucket wont let me into my account so I have sent to johnno and he is going to post them up for me. Also bought some stainless steel door sill trims and I drilled and tapped the bleed hole in the head where the inlet manifold is for a barb and I have fitted a hose to bleed back the the cooling system somewhere when I nut it out. Have purchased a bypass valve for the blower and im fitting a gilmer kit because I don't have to worry about stalling the blower this time. I have gone pod filter into turbocharger into throttle body which is on the front of the blower, blower has a bypass valve circuit around it now, which feeds the fmic then straight into the plenum with 2x water/meth injectors in the charge pipe. If johnno posts the pic of the inlet you can see some of what is going on and I will get some more as I progress.
Put a rocket up the boys with the new engine, we did the sums and with the pistons I have (very high pin height and high ring land heights) I need to go 4z rods, standard 149.8mm c to c is too long but we have managed to come across a place who makes 148mm rods for 4ze1s I assume for turbos going flat top pistons. So the block is bored and ready to fit up the crank which hasn't been balanced or ground yet. All the gear is there to do the head got the biggest valves I can get in it, custom springs and retainers, swivel feet and a custom grind kelford cam. The double row kits and the hi volume oil pump will be going on and I can think what else. End Rant
