Re: AAN cranks

Yeah, Issam is my go-to guy for used parts (and many new). He's a tremendous asset to the community. You can find him on MG and S2forum as wizard-of-od, or on his website/Facebook/Instagram through his company, iAbed Industries.
Would this be the correct page?

Re: anyone here have experience with holset turbos on the AA

You are looking at a .8x A/R for the 16cm. Maybe a low .9x.

Re: New guy, old car

I am serious. According to our wonderful government, I need to tow the car to the border to have the border patrol inspect it and get a stamp of approval. No other way around it. I am NOT lugging this thing 600 miles north.
Is it a registration/title thing? If so feel free to shoot me a PM I can ...

Re: New guy, old car

Even if I get a short block, I'm getting H-beam rods. So might as well get just the crank.

Ooof. Yuck. People are awesome. Dad has several engines, but I don't remember where you're located.
I'm near Chicago IL.

Seeing how the head is messed up from the valve cover bolt boss, might as well get a long block or head/crank.

Re: New guy, old car

Long time update...

Got the engine pulled. No bearing for #4... Unlike what I was told, which was it started knocking and he parked it, it was ran a long time without a bearing. To test my theory, I took off #1 cap. That bearing fell right on the crank with a couple thousands gap... So either a new ...

Sorry for the late reply. My Tapatalk seemed to have locked me out.

I'm thinking of transplanting the engine into a 4 door 72 Valiant.

What does it take to have the engine running in another car? VEMs? Megasquirt? Or is there a way to use the stock ECU?

Nothing to report. I have been busy with house work, work itself, and trying to decide if I want to unload the car and get back into diesel trucks or go forward.

I am going forward but with a much more realistic and less costly upgrade path. I plan on just throwing in whats needed ...

Re: Julian's '91 200 20vt

MWE grooves most certainly help performance. Its short for "Map Width Enhancement". Truck pullers and tractor pullers are limited to .200" or all the way down to smooth bore (no MWE groove) because of the power potential you can realize.

It was intended to fatten the map on the turbo. Mainly move ...

WH1C left, H1C right. They both have the "antisurge" housing but only the WH1C has a MWE.

Re: Julian's '91 200 20vt

So. As far as holsets go.

Baby H1C is a 54mm compressor with a slip on compressor outlet. Nothing cast for a MWE groove. Available on non-IC Cummins from 89-91. Only had 18cm exhaust housings.

Big H1C is 56mm. 91.5-93 Cummins had them. Available with either a 18cm or 21cm exhaust housing. Has a ...
