Its getting close to Christmas so i have to hurry up a bit on the Maxi Micra project.
Have more projects waiting to work on...
Here is more cylinderhead stuff.
Now the job with machining the cylinderhead starts and they will give me my desired dimensions on the different ports and...
@alexaki
Thanks,,,,,buy the way , when i saw your snow pictures i feel lucky as hell here in Norway.
NO SNOW AT ALL :)
And i can drive around as a mad man probably some weeks more before it hits us,,,i hope.
Here is more of the cylinder head build :
Lay down some machinist blue around the combustion chamber and put the head gasket that i am going to use on top of it.
Then i scribe the area to get an idea of how the actual chamber where the combustion will find place will look like...
@shaun
Thank you for looking :)
Here is more on the Evo head build :
This cylinderhead will have some differences from a OEM one after i am finished.
All will be done in full DIY style.
Bewfore i start some heavy work i will need to log some valve heights to ease my work later on...
Thanks for your enthusiasm guys :)
A special THANKS to Frank that got involved and got the Maxi Micra a new instrument cluster with a rev counter !
There will be more , more and even more to come soon...:laugh:
As i want this cylinderhead to be spotless before commencing works on it I will remove the end-plugs in the oil-gallery.
That’s very important as sludge and other stuff is easily left in there and will collect grinding dust etc as I machine the head.
Drilling out the oem oil gallery...
@Baguete
Of course i will keep you posted :)
TO ALL :
THE MAXI MICRA IS STILL IN THE NEED FOR A INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WITH RPM COUNTER;;;;;ANYONE THAT CAN GET ME ONE OR HAVE ONE FOR SALE ????
@Frank
The biggest botleneck is not in the head but in the inlet manifold.
That is why i did the inlet manifold first to get the flow numbers out of that before i started working with the head.
OEM cylinderhead can support quite a punch , even in stock form but i would say that it is as...
On my list over DIY modifications i have done, with this level in the Maxi Micra set up, the inlet manifold and high-compression pistons can be checked out.
Inlet manifold =
more capacity DIY FINISHED
Pistons =
Higher compression / lighter. DIY FINISHED
Camshafts = DIY FINISHED...
@baguete
Thank you agian :)
The " system " is in testing mode and will be presented a bit later.
ANYONE :
THE MAXI MICRA NEED A SET OF INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WITH RPM COUNTER , DOES ANYONE HAVE ONE FOR SALE ?
@liio
Thank you for looking into the Maxi Micra project :)
Hope i can even in the future show interesting stuff....
@Frank
Nope :)
Not cunning and absolute not any top-hat buttons....
Think oem Frank :)
@Frank
i think you will be suprised later on to see the results of the torque curve :)
@Noddie
i think you will be even more surprised to see that i did not increase any shims or something like that:glare:
It will all be revealed a bit later on.....
@Low rider
Some things you just...
Kicking off some more work with the camshafts and i will show you my superduper high-tech tools that i will do the work with :
First tool is this one :
A regular metal lathe
Supertool number 2 is this one
A regular bench grinder with one coarse and one fine grit stone
And last...
