you aren't using the ALH now?

the aaz head breathes 10% better than the 1.6td head so i don't think i have to worry about odd turbulance with the bigger manifold right? ( polished the head too)

Oh man, i hate that the sides are fibre glass!!! tig'ing your own sides would be hellish too. I'm not sure what im gonna do. I don't want to go above 25psi... i don't think. How much does a 4 door jetter weigh compared to that 4000lb 4runner you had? if your build makes that thing rocket will i have interesting results with mine on my 4dr?

I really have no idea what kind of improvement the engine work i've done(doing) will have/make compared to the stock 1.6td it was before i pulled it all apart. I'm just assuming im going to run into huge issues because i haven't spent very much money on it. I may end up just having to be really conservative on the pedal because i have a completely stock bottom end (Except for new rod bearings). The only thing i have going for me is that it's an MF block... (true TD block made for more boost and load i think? and oil squirter thingies. possibly a bigger oil pump too)

Am i digging my own grave with this?
I think i have a 9mm head and LDA? my plunger is a 9mm.

If youve got a aaz head the manifold will  work for you,as the 1.6 has round intake ports.Im gonna run the cooler anyways,Im sure ill settle down for smileage!

stock fueling(plug wastegate) will get you maybe 60-70 ponies,but a little on the full load screw and youll be over 100 i bet!Just watch the smoke eddy!The intercooler will help cool it.This intercooler of ours is decent.I was laying a cloud down with 25psi,winding the gears out and i couldnt  break 1400f(with a 10mm plunger).Its not gonna last though.ill abuse it so i can upgrade to a ebay 75$ special.About the intake.The aaz has "d"shaped ports, like a tdi does therefore it will bolt right on,without removing material from the head.The 1.6 has roound ports which will sit inside of the "d"shape,but there will be a ridge ,the air will hit(creating turbulence)when entering the combustion chamber.I like your enthusiasm eddy!! :)

I think i need a metal HG though.I was floggin it to set the rings.It seem theres some coolant seeping out of the front by the oil drain for the hyd. lifters.I already went an extra 1/4"turn after warm up.Is it safe to go another 1/4?

Looks good, is your cooling system pressurizing?

I dont see bubbles (in the  bottle)but i did have a leak that showed up unexpectedly(after a run).I tightened the hose clamp and it stopped.What about the coolant seepage?

Hmm, well are you positive it isn't/ wasn't just left over from a seeping hose?

Aside from retorquing the head I say just keep an eye on it to see if it continues.

Can ya get a pic of the leak?

positive.the hose in question is the oil cooler hose,below the head.you can see it bubbling out and smell is strong.so you say1/4 torque, dan?I purchased a 1.9 metal hg.Should i torque the stock bolts again?

What are the torqued to now?

When you did the first warm up/ torque was the cooling system presureized?

As in was the cap on?

Your suppose to  leave the pressure cap off then torque, start and run to temp, shut it down, retorque (I think after cool down).

Any luck getting a pic of the offending area?

fiber gasket install=
1. torque to spec

2. with coolant tank cap OFF, start engine and allow to come up to operating temp.

3. turn engine off and allow it to FULLY cool down

4. retorque





I HATE fiber HG's on these engines!! they are JUNK :evil: (if you want over stock boost numbers)

Did you warm up the first time w/o the cap and then torque ? If not, I'll bet you'll be taking that head off again for a new HG.
