Some more cool drawings from cold winter days

This ugly ironic old crap has to give its ID

then compare to the block

few misalignements are noticed

Hi  I went to emarket & filled my mailbag with lots of goodyz [ Attachment Invalid Or Does Not Exist ]

Flanges are doing very well , with a bit of cut & a bit of hammer it's building fast

Thank you Mr Omidyar     

That is some serious work. Love the effort. Can't wait to see it done

Sent from my SM-G930P using SoCal Jet Boats mobile app

 then the serious problemo is coming how do I start the engine ?
 Stock ECU is a strong job to make it fully work
 immo , gearbox , all security , index , parameters  a nightmare I hate that
& if by chance I hear a caugh & then after it's having issues it will be a lifemare
Jaguar diag is limited & I wt have one at all ..
there are lots of offers in the ECU aftermarket & it's cheap
It will be fun to connect & to see the computer make the engine living
We have serious duds around here that build race cars with modules such as Sybele , Sodemo , DTA , Haltech , omex etc
could be done in a day !
The Jag is an all sequantial management v8 & need a big ECU , lots are for 4cyl
 & then it needs a rare motor bench dyno when drum dynos are allover   

well can't wait to see it done !!

 

 some news because I won't quit
 Engine Management is a big file on my desk , this is a hard subject for me , I'm posting everywhere to get infos
 Hopfully with all the knowledges owning by some duds that are totally into it on some amazing website I should get throu it
 Basically the process is to copy the Jag/Denso eprom and paste it into a Race ECU box , way more eazy to say.
 I hate to have to wait for something or somebody to keep going , I'm use to make or find watever I need quite easyly
 Like the exhaust manifold I just starded

 I'm concerned about the quality of the header's , specially those weldings around the 4 to 1 area
 Bought these 100$ on ebay.us , wonder if they ever seen america , it must come from China
 I don't want any leaks now & in the future , with all the dilation / expansion it must works on the weak point
 Seems well welded in fact but maybe to prevent craking if I deep the middle center octopussy mouth with high temp silicone & over the weldings & let it inside the double skin ?
 It may work as vibes absorbtion..but It should not separate & mash with water causing a plug somewhere after..
