Pro tip: you know those interchangeable tip screwdrivers? If you take the bit out they fit the hex on a standard hose clamp. Much easier to do up than with a flat head screwdriver.

Great video. Like the step by step explaination... But you should thinking about dry decking your engine for better cooling.....

Cole, you completely explained how a blow-off valve works (and why) in a perfectly clear and simple way that I was able to fully understand! 😊 Nice job, well done and thank you very much.

Compliments on the new bigger garage. The lighting in there is nice and bright. Camera focus also good and the audio was excellent. Explanation of the various SU needle profiles was useful. Overall a really nice subscriber experience! 👍

Thank you for the kind words and feedback! The new garage has been such a great to work in. I think I still need just a bit more sound proofing on the ceiling as I get some revurb in the space still.
@lilpinkiy2 жыл бұрын
A slight adjustment to the explanation, or it could be just how it was said but i found it a little bit confusing for me anyhow. Technically if you don't run a blow off valve when you take your foot of the throttle all the vacuum explaining that was said was correct but the pressure/boost in the plenum does not go into the engine. As the carb butterfly is shut there is nowhere for it to escape but back the way it come in, thus you get compressor surge. This is where the blow off valve comes in, vacuum as explained and release of pressure/boost through the valve. Now is a blow off valve necessary, depends on boost i would say. I ran 10 psi in my last engine with no blow off valve and ran a treat and the flutter sound is awesome. Turbo is still in good nick too, that said the more boost you run i would highly recommend it.

Hello, love the build but i noticed at around 7:55 there is not an engine to bulkhead stabiliser, what have you done to stop the engine movement back and forward?
@classicminidiy Жыл бұрын
Due to the turbo and the exhaust manifold I had to move the upper steady to the other side off the thermostat. DSN makes a thermostat that has a steady built in.

Great to see the engine running! From my experience with the DTA ECU the sensor position value needs checked with a timing light. I had to adjust mine quite a bit.
@classicminidiy2 жыл бұрын
Yup there is a little caveat under the approx sensor position that said to verify with a light. Mine ended up being on point from the software but it’s always worth triple checking.
@euancollin2 жыл бұрын
Sensor angle set at 268 ( curious as 360 - 268 = 92 which is where the sensor is physically) timing light used to set this value which gives 8 deg advance static timing at idle ~ 950 RPM

Why did you turbo a 998 when you could of put a 1275 rebore to 1293 to 1380? I have a 998 and Iwo mind whether to turbo it or put 1275 rebore in the car. Just your personal thought please..
@classicminidiy2 жыл бұрын
Sounds like you may have mis-heard my video. I turbocharged my 1293 a-series. The engine was previously rebored from 1275 and was wonderful NA. But I wanted more power than an NA engine could produce so I turbocharged the same engine. The turbo conversion provided me about 170hp vs the 75-80hp I had on the NA version.
@IsraelitesUnited2 жыл бұрын
@@classicminidiy Thanks for the reply. Should i turbo a 1275 if I can get one cheap rather than a 998. Someone is selling a 1293 for cheap so I am in two minds what to do. Would I need to modify the head like bigger valves etc or could I just refurbish the head. New valves, valve guide, double spring , 3 angle, etc.

Great job on engine 1st firing. It must be very satisfying after tons of building and preparing. I am very much looking forward to seeing a video about AFR measurements. I am planning to install AFR with my 1275 HIF44 engine. Did you need to prime oil pump before 1st crank?
@Dagowly832 жыл бұрын
Yes, you should always prime it prior to first start. If its a new cam/followers, remember to follow the correct 'knock in' procedure.
@classicminidiy2 жыл бұрын
Yup definetly always want to prime the pump. I actually verified oil pressure in the last video which is why I didnt mention it in this one but the AFR topic seems to be one that a lot of people wanna hear more about so I am hoping to cover it in more detail during the driving.

Hi what inlet manifold are you using on that. I see you said it was modified but was it a MG metro one?
@classicminidiy10 ай бұрын
The inlet manifold is actually just a standard minispares one that has had some sensor take offs drilled and tapped and the coolant line removed.

@classicminidiy cheers I have a bagsport one on one of my engines but I'm thinking of using a alloy one on my turbo build.i can't see there being much difference but could be wrong.
