This is some pictures of a Solidworks drawing I made for a pulley for a supercharger application. It will retain the stock crankshaft pulley and will be bolted onto it by using the big crankshaft pulley bolt + secured by using the 2 bolts that is used to remove the crankshaft pulley. It is 180...

V8Datto: If you only need the alternator why do you bother with the original tensioner ? Retain the upper mount for the alternator and make the lower one adjustable, this way the fanbelt only runs between the crank pulley and the alternator and the alternator is used to adjust the tension. If...

I'm waiting for a clutch setup from South Bend Clutch, it will be interesting to see how this will work.

Lex: Isn't the hose diameter a bit small ? Remember all the oil from the engine will be going thru those hoses, and a small diameter hose will make a severe restriction.

Hi Rod. Man, It's beautiful ! I want one ! I'm just curious about a couple of things as I'm in a fix regarding the Norwegian MOT at the moment, they changed the rules on me, long story won't bother you all with it. Does the the snout of the opticon have any kind of support ? I'm wondering as...

Yup, it tastes bloody awful.

I have bought both of my engines + a 1JZGTE from Australia. There are lots of breakers that have these down under, and the prices start under AUS$ 1000 for the engine. With A/C, power steering pump and alternator expect to pay AUS$ 1300 to $ 1800 depending of condition exc. Shipping is not a...

LondonBenji: When it comes to building powerfull engines I'd suggest you get hold of Ahmed Bayjoo, he is well known in the UK for powerfull engines. An example, a friend of mine have my old Cosworth and he have a 511 BHP/ 543 Nm engine built by Bayjoo. The engine is flexible, it has over 500 Nm...

turboteener: Seems to me that the top of the stock valve covers have been chopped off and a new billet top have been made with space for the plugs and the cam gears, then they have velded the billet top to the remaining valve cover. Check out the block too, a nice hole in it.....

Yes, if you can do this I'd appreciate it.

Dave: Can you do me a big favor ? Can you measure a couple of things on the supercharger intake: - Outside length and width where the supercharger sits ? - Inside length and width where the supercharger sits ? The reason I'm asking I'm looking into fitting an chargecooler to this intake...

Turbo placement is finally settled. It will be slightly different on the left side, compromises....

Still doing the Sierra, that is not much has happened for the last 5 months. That said I have just started on the twin turbo exhaust manifolds and they will be a pain. Not enough space to get the turbos aligned like I want, so I'm trying to get it to look ok, not good, but ok. Still lots of...

storm_rider_ Welcome to the forum. This sounds like an interesting project, the old Fiat 124's is getting rare here in Europe. Before you start chopping I'd recomend you measure up the engine bay to see if it's possible to fit the 1UZFE engine, the Fiat 1600/1750/2000 engines are short so...

Shuey: It will fit if you are stubborn enought about it. I had to do a lot of, ehhh "massaging (cutting&welding)" to get my 4x4 combo into my Sierra. I also had to use a RWD ABS master unit from an English Sierra and adapt it to fit into my LHD Sierra to get the engine in. Even then I had to...

rydning: Sounds like an interesting project, this will be similar to another mid engine project from another member here ( maajola ), look for his project in this post: maajola's Ultima He's using a Porsche G64 transaxle from a 993 turbo and that is reported to take 1000Nm, try to get in...

Shuey: Nice work mate ! The only thing I'd be concerned about is the overall height of the engine/sump combo. Where is the centerline of the 1UZFE crankshaft compared to the RB26 crankshaft ? Do they line up, or is the deep skirt on the 1UZFE block moving it upwards alot ? If it...

Will be using a Autronic SM4.

Thanks Peewee.
