    Did you ever come up with a tilton throw out bearing that works on the R154 for the tilton 7.25" triple plate clutch? I am working on a very similar clutch setup and also need to find a suitable throw out.

    Dry sumping the 1GZ

    Just bought a used but nice 3 stage pump. It looks to be made by stock car products or weaver or race line. It can tricky to tell some of there pumps appart from just a few pictures. I would have loved to have the cash to spend on a new pump but a used one in good shape pulled from a running...

    Dry sumping the 1GZ

    I probably could but the factory 1GZ oil pump is mounted on the bottom of the block and sits in the front sump, so no mater what I have to remove the stock oil pump. Getting oil to the engine from a external pump is not a problem as the oil leaves the stock pump and runs out the side of the...

    Dry sumping the 1GZ

    I have looked at his systems before and they are absolutely amazing but the price is just two high for me at this time. At between $4,000 and $6,000 I just can't afford to spend that much on a dry sump. I can get a very nice 3 to 5 stage pump for around $500 and a cleen butler built tank for...

    Dry sumping the 1GZ

    I will have to convert my 1GZ to a dry sump system to swap it into a MK3 supra. I have a plan for the pan but I am not sure how many stage pump to get. I am thinking that a 3 stage would work but a 4 stage would pull more vacuum. I have been having trouble finding any one local to me who has...

    Machining Cams from scratch

    I dident know that kelford could or has made cams for the 1GZ. They don't list all there applications on there site and I would rather deal with some one in the usa to save on shipping. Do you know if they would need my cams to weld and regrind or do they just make them to order?

    Any supercharger manifold cnc files out there?

    If you have both the skill and a welder that can weld aluminum then you can do all the machineing on a bridgeport manual mill with a 3 axis DRO. When I made my supercharger manifold I used a bridgeport with a 2 axis CNC conversion to save some time but if you are good at math then a manual...

    Machining Cams from scratch

    I would agree that they would need to be ground. I am thinking that I should probbly leave .003 to .004 per side so .006 to .008 diametricly total on all surfaces for grinding. Would 4140 cromoly be the metal to use and should I have them case hardened before grinding? If any one has a real...

    headers and strait pipe.. kinda

    Thats very close to the setup that I have. Ported factory SC400 headers to 26" glass-packs with downward facing turn downs. Sounds really nice but kinda loud. I have started my engine with the glass packs off before and it was VERY loud. If you even used a pair of 12" long 3" diameter glass...
