How about the videos??? I want to see and hear this thing. It will give me inspiration to work on mine again. Help a fellow Veedubber out.
I know brother....I gotta empty my drive on my camera....so I can make a vid for you...I been saying I would for like 4 months...
Mark,
I think I may have a 9mm pump at home if you want to try a smaller one..
for the love of god!! WE NEED UPDATES!
for the love of god!! WE NEED UPDATES!
update...my front cooling flange is old and pitted....it's keeps causing coolant leaks...I'm afraid if I go any tighter with the hose clamp it's gonna cut right through the hose...probably gonna have to pick up some new one's...
also noticed I have a small trans leak...about the size of a soda can after sitting for a day or so....
there you go....I do have a feeling thats not the kinda update you wanted...?
***! haha....
do you plan on hitting the dyno? do we need to gather a pool together? lol
we will have to compare dynos this summer as our builds will be very similar. ive been looking hard into using either the GT2554 or the GT2560(28r) so our snails will be similar in size. I found a guy that can make me a passenger performance style intake manifold locally, and of course there will be the beefy giles pump.
can i ask you where you got your cometic gasket made? i think i will do the same

yeah I will be on the dyno this spring....and the 1/4 strip with it....still need to get my nitrous kit hooked up but I been to busy with other projects...
I dont expect much on dyno numbers...? my altitude is gonna kill it I got a feeling??
150-200hp would be cool
...hopefully it does not take drugs to get that number?? maybe pop another 10-15hp with a small shot??
we will see.....I'm kinda thinking i'm gonna need some water injection to make a full 1/4 pass with out hitting 1500*!!!!!
my MLS gasket came from the only place I could find that would make one for a VW diesel...
gasketstogo.com they are in Thailand!!
if you search the blog with "vw" you can read about the gasket.....
what size do you need??
what were the specs on yours? im sorry if it was gone over already...
is it compression dropping?

is it compression dropping?
mine is a 2 hole....and no on the oversized gasket...my piston protrusion called for a 2 hole so that what I did.
I got a spare 3 hole I might sell you...I think I should have just got a spare two hole instead.... so if I sell it I wold just order a new 2hole....
did you consider dropping the compression at all? or no because you live in a cold high elevation climate?

yeah you guessed it....to cold in the winter and too much elevation.
i might pick that gasket up from you, i found a rebuilt shortblock i want to get that requires a 2hole. ill let you know if i decide to purchase it.
