So Ive read books about porting cylindehead and test results are showing that gas flow is better when exhaust ports are very smooth. Like polished exhaust port surfaces are most flowing. But in intake it doesnt go like that, usually polishing intake port doesnt improve flow. So I dont smooth...

https://youtu.be/CxhDjkeWSbw Took her to little test drive;) Feels pretty powerfull, cant wait to get this to dyno and get right tunes out of it ;D

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNP80bS3kH8 Final setup is: Block: Ford ohc 205 (2l) with std pistons. new bearings everywhere. Cylinder head: from Ford ohc 1.6l, lowered few mm so compression ratio is 12.5:1. - Larger valves, new valve guides -Cam duration 294°, lift inlet valve 12.5mm...

So engine assembled now and its running! Here is link to video where I run engine briefly. Now it is in better tunes so its not spitting or backfiring anymore. 8)

Next weekend task: Assembly the cylinder head and put all together 8)

Me too 8) I said earlier about velocity stacks and upholstery. But forgot to put pics.

Some more pics

Time flies :o Ive done something recently. Engine is not running yet, ive to plain few millimeters from the cylinderhead to raise compression rations. Now i ve ported whole cylinder head though. In picture there is orginal and reshaped port. I started upholstering front seats. Old ones were...

My friend brought the reworked cylinder head yesterday! It was awesome. It has new bigger valve seats and valves. Also new bronze valve guides 8) I need to grind end of ports bigger and plane the gasket surface and then its ready. I hope the D-Day is within month! :D

Some more trunk things. The trunk looked messy to me so I thought to do cover sheet. I used some junk piece of plywood and cutted it to right shape. Then I glued upholstery felt on the sheet. When the car is ready I will put some videos I promise 8)

Relocated battery. Old battery place was in the engine room. It was rusted and bad condition. I like clean and roomy engine room so I decided to put battery to trunk.

Process. Its waiting paint :)

I got front bushesh installed. I assembled front collectivelys and lifted engine back 8) I wanted to see what the engine will look like so I put my spare cylinderhead on, put carbs and exhaust manifold to the head. Everything fits good and there is space to exhaustmanifold and carbs. Looks...

It would be fun to print stacks but with 100% fill it would take 4x 9 hours to print :o So Im going to save my time and just buy stacks.

I thought ill try if i can 3D- print those velocity stacks. I calculated length and diameter of intake runner and did some 3d modeling. I did some research about stack shapes and chose optimal shape. With 2" (10cm) long stack, it gives most power to about 5500rpm with runner diameters I have. I...

Here is are the carbs ill use. Missing velocity stacks but im going to get them.

Yes. Std 2l pinto has one Weber DGAV, upright, double throat carburetor. Im going to put two Dellorto DHLA, side draft, double throat. So fuel intake is going to be much bigger and better. The Standard intake manifold of this engine is like the std exhaust manifold. Too heavy, too small...

Yes I hope so! ;) Yesterday I worked on exhaust manifold. I got a "new" exhaust manifold, with bigger diameter pipes. Stock manifolds are usually pretty bad, heavy cast iron and too small. The manifold is used in other car so it didn't fit right. a Collector pipe's angle was too steep so it...

Project is going on, this weekend I worked on car gauges. Heat indicator and oil pressure warning light doesnt work. Well, there wasnt very much anything. Heat indicator gauge was stuck. I connected the gauge's pos wire to car batterys neg pin and neg wire to pos pin and after that connected it...
