The R in GT40R means you need to use a ballast resistor

Did you comp test it properly, ie all plugs out and wide open throttle?

Is this not the same guy with a 3t in his ksev?.... with the Smokey catch can? And fyi ta22 t50's have the same output shaft size as a k40/50.

Welcome to rollaclub! We're always happy to help. .... but might be worthwhile helping yourself first by using this. ... https://www.rollaclub.com/board/search/

Was in a group buy out of nz years ago

Genuine head gaskets are definitely the way to. I always use them, and along with a set of arp's never had any issue holding in over 20 psi. Crow do k series double valve springs.... and by using the search function you could probably even find a part number!

Backfiring through the carby sounds like a timing issue. If you took the leads off the dizzy cap you sure you haven't mixed up the firing order?

Is that the payment sitting on the bonnet? Lol

Just polish the rocker cover. They're pretty easy to do as they're pretty smooth to start with. It doesn't need any type of ceramic heat coating.

Gotta take it on the chin when you've got away with for years hey

Those pics would actually be hosted here somewhere. Look for a projects thread for a user named jamesrolla iirc

That'd be it. Don't forget to port match your weber manifold to the 3kbp size too

Get yourself a permaseal em30 manifold gasket. 1 piece and have inlets the size of a 3k big port. I did a group buy of copper em30 replicas a few years ago. They're friggen awesome. Don't know if you'd be able to find one still kicking around though.

Tommy's made close enough to 130....

I went 40 thou over on my last rebuild. Can't remember if they we're acl or not though. Ask at a local machine shop

Pull the pump off the block, the lever is on the back side and runs off the camshaft

You need to also double check weather it's a coil to be used with our without a resistor

I have 'over-run fuel cut' activated on my wolf. Cuts fuel completely with 0 throttle above 2900. I tried it lower but will stall as the recovery doesn't have time to catch it. Makes a nice little pop when it kicks back in sometimes. I'm sure it saves me a little bit in fuel as you spend more time at 0 throttle than you ever do at w.o.t.

Is this in a 4k block? A 4k is essentially a stroked 3k.

lol love it

I've been meaning to do this update for about a month now..... Finally got around to making new brackets for the 15" thermo fan I've had in the shed for about a year. The twin 10"s worked, but the new 15" drops temps a heap quicker. The brackets I originally made for the commonwhore radiator worked... but weren't pretty, so I combined the fan and top rad mounting bracket, made from 3mm alloy sheet. Bending it was fun in a home shed! While I had it off the road I pulled the manifolds off for the first time in a couple of years.... The copper manifold gaskets I did the group buy of were the best investment ever!!!..... and gave everything a good clean up and re-polish. In other news the clutch has started slipping again, but only when you flick the boost switch Grrr. When I changed it last time I did change the front main seal of the T50. Think maybe I've got a leaking rear main on the engine itself though. I work for 'Ten Days on the Island' now and festival is about to start, so when its all over at the end of the month I'll get the box out again in April and sort the slippage again.

You're quoting me why? Since that was 10 years ago I can now say I'm 100% sure of that fact! Lol
