I'm back to the topic subject. Does anyone know where the desired oil full line would be in reference to the crank? I gotta weld a dipstick pipe in my pan and wondered how close to oil the crank runs

No. I used the same hv gears that were in in. I just noticed they were longer than stock and there was no extension plate which must mean this is a hv cover. I put the right gears in it. Since I have successfully primed the pump. The problem was the gasket didn't have the hole cut for the suction

where do you feed the block with oil from your ta plate? Maybe I should take this thing to a reputable turbo buick engine builder, I always heard good things about Conley but now I'm starting to wonder

Ok I took the timing cover off and found the problem. The hole was not cut out of the gasket for the suction. I'll pick up a new gasket set tomorrow and make sure the hole gets cut. The passages look to be in good shape nothing crossed up. Do you see any reason why I can't just use the stock...

I didn't really inspect anything because I got it like this. Intersecting passages you mean suction/pressure joining in the block behind the timing cover where those 2 holes are? Are those holes there from the factory or did someone machine them? When I had the filter adapter off I blew through...

Ok I'm posting a pic of what I have. The pan is steel and th oil pickup is a bung welded in the bottom pass side. Had a hose going to a threaded hole in the block behind the timing cover which I just determined to be on the pressure side. I took the suction line off of it and poured oil into...

I don't know what happened to the rest of this thread. You guys that were helping me remember my last question about the oil issues?

Cast iron. Casting # 25500153

I bought a stage 2 4.1 that I been piecing together for a while now. Finally poured oil in it to prime the pump (which I've had zero success at). I noticed there's no revision on either side of the block for a dipstick tube. My car with a 109 factory engine has been off to paint for too long so...

At least you got tv back in time to see the falcons get hammered?

I been watching these threads for 3 years with a car running on about 5 cylinders trying to pick up scraps to scab something together. Finally caught a break. Thanks rob. Ill let you know how she runs when I get it together.

You ever get this motor sold?

You still have that ta motor?

Any possible way of freighting it to texas?

How much for that double pumper?

On or off center?

On or off center?

I think as long as its a floating caliper (which these are) the whole caliper should shift rather than compress the piston. It should be no different than warped rotors on your front

Which disc setup did you go with? any dislikes?

I looked at the flynbye kits. Looks like they're using the 3rd gen f-body calipers but they get $885 for essentially the same thing. I will need to clear 15" wheels and want the bling factor slotted/drilled. Are those calipers any better than the eldo ones? Other than aluminum vs cast?
