  1. Have a look at this...... http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?s...0208&st=540 :) Can it be hired by rollaclub members? I want to make one for whenever I may get around to doing "Mud". Would need a little jacking up though. However, that would give me enough room to mount an old alternator off the diff (to be driven off the pinion flange of the diff) so the trailer can have its own self sustaning power supply!!!
  2. Then I'd have to sell a box without one! Sorry Evan. You could just buy a whole box off me!
  3. He said what it is...... W56 from a KR42R townace. :) Biggest gearbox you can put behind a K. Bigger than both my K-T and K-W(50).
  4. Shame I don't have more time tonight, in Hobart at the mo. Would have popped around and given her a quick tune up for you. I've got a couple of KE55 K50's I may be selling shortly. I'll let you know when I do if you haven't found one already.
  5. So you've had a TD04-L on a 4k have you? I'm not in the greatest of moods tonight, so you can just go play with your mis-information. Don't expect help for me again. I'm sure somebody else here will tell you that you just shot yourself in the foot. BTW, your graph is for a TD04H. :)
  6. No. As long as you don't put it in 180* out. :)
  7. Hanging off the bottom of the motor in the sump.
  8. If you do, find yourself a Permaseal EM30. Thats the part number for the extractor gaskets Cam is talking about,..... just not ACL. :) They cost like $8 too! :)
  9. No not the same. Yes it will fit. :)
  10. I only boxed my carb as an easy solution. I definately would have lost some power just through the swirl effect that would happen in "Ned's Helmet". If the gaskets are all new and tight just a top hat would be better flowing. You're right felix, some..... well actually most have some sort of vent to the float bowl. However Tom is also right because I was once helpinga guy with a ktc setup with a Falcon weber, which as far as we could find didn't have a float bowl vent in the carby top. We ended up running a boost ref line to the float bowl as Tom described. To be honest though I don't know if it really helped because that car had other issues and never ran boost properly. The guy ended up giving up on it, and hence I ended up with My TD04-L! :)
  11. Woh, talk about some mis-information. :) No offence man but you're sooo wrong with a lot of that stuff. Sorry you might have to wait until tomoz for me to correct you on it. While you're waiting.... click "Tar" in my sig like I told you to. I trying to help you, not show off. For what you want to do there is a lot of info (basically all you need to know) in there that would explain why I'm saying you're wrong. :) One last thing...... 4k, carby, TD04-L..... http://www.youtube.com/user/TheoriginalTaz...u/0/nR2e0qmsELY Do you think thats laggy!?
  12. Over heads and looking for a new way to cheat now!? :)
  13. Yeah I'll get you a pic in the next couple of days Tom, in Hobart at the moment. The other 2x I've broken snapped were the spline has twisted on that one. This one twisted there, then continue to twist further down the axle in a spiral break, wait till you see it! :) I can you imagine the trouble I had trying to get the centre out of the housing with that much axle sticking back up the axle tube!! :) Tuppawear is banned from my shed...... unless its containing tastey moresels or nut/bolts. :bash: The boxes are just handy for storing stuff.
  14. Torque to yeild bolts.
  15. Being hydro lifters you don't even have to adjust.... or re-check the tappets either. :)
  16. Piccies: KE55 (broken) axle is on the left, and Zenki on the right..... ....yes I did an awesome job of snapping that axle. :) So I've had a bit more of a think about weather to use the Zenki or not. :) I've snapped 3x '55 axles in my rolla life...... and all of them have been while using a welded diff. And only one of them was broken while giving it a hard time (snapped when I rolled off the burnout pad at the drags and hooked up), the other 2x broke while just casually driving around town (one was when I casually pulled into a car park at a bottle shop). What does this say - Weldys put A LOT of strain on axles. So, if I were to run and LSD instead of a weldy this strain would be minimal. For this reason I'm thinking I might actually stick with the Zenki since I have it. I would like to hear some opinions from others though?
  17. Nah its deffinately smaller. The fact that the Zenki axles could freely turn inside the '55 centre is proof of this. Splines look much the same. I think you might be right. I've never had to do this so have never really researched it, but what you'd said would make sense - You'd use jap spec (Banjo) axles in the Jap spec KE20 diff.... with 5mm trimmed off. Can anybody confirm this? Pics up in a sec.
  18. Ooh, custom K goodies?
  19. Remember K-T's were a standard fitment item in some cars so K-T clutch kits are actually a normal off-the-shelf item. You might find in some clutch catalogues you see for example "KE30/55/70 some 5 speeds" This is the K-T kit. If you go through the above exedy link I posted (its a new catalogue) and put in details for a KE55, theres a tab at the top "OEM equivalent clutch kit" hover your curser over it and it brings up a box with "Some 5 speed transmission". :) If these kits didn't exist the easiest way to go about it would be to use a stock K series flywheel AND PRESSURE PLATE, and then just a custom clutch plate with the T50 spline in it. I only tried the above mentioned T18 kit because I already had the 200mm liteace flywheel and thought the bigger clutch contact area would be nice. As I said, it all worked on paper, it was just the fact the PP didn't fit in the bellhousing that screwed me. If it had of been a hydo K-T I reckon it would have fitted.
  20. Fair enough Styler. :) I actually bought a 3tc (T18) clutch kit to use with my K-T with a liteace 200mm flywheel. All worked on paper. Went to bolt the gearbox to the motor and something wasn't right. :bash: Bloody pressure plate wouldn't fit inside the bell housing! :) Ended up selling that clutch kit to a guy with a 2T/T50 and we tracking him down a 3tc flywheel to use with it...... which obviously wasn't neccessary then!
  21. :) :) :bash: :huh: Great minds think alike mate!!! Read my last comment in my last post in this thread.... http://tasrotary.6.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=918
  22. I don't think you can do that! You'd have to drill and tap new holes for the pressure plate and re-dowl it too as the 200mm one would have a bigger pressure plate. Much easier to just swap flywheels and use the appropiate clutch kit.
  23. You just need to think for 3 seconds longer weather the post your making is really helpful or informative, or wheather it will just be classed as spam or trolling. :)
  24. All of the key mechanism was wrecked, and hence the fuel tank that partially covers it was too. They also dropped it and dented one fo the radiators. He only just got it back on the road last week some time after fixing it........ ....... Now can you believe it's been stolen again from Devines Road in Glenorchy over the weekend. :) :bash: Was talking to Mum last night and she said He thinks he knows who stole it. Thats why he left home with a cricket bat the other night and got brought home via a cop car! I'm sure I'll get the ful story later in the week. On another note about getting it back last time. My bro and one of his mates decided to go for a drive to try and find it the day after it was stolen. Drove into guagebrook and found a crowd of guy in the backyard of the FIRST house, in the FIRST street they looked in. Drove around the back of said house and noticed the crown was gathered around his stolen bike!!!! He then called the cops, and jump the fence, yelled a bit and told them he was taking his bike. None of them really stopped him at all. Hung around in guagebrook for half an hour wating for the cops to rock up..... but then decided to leave when somebody came out of the house it was at with a sword!! :huh:
  25. Good to see you got it back mate. Clunking diff is better than a BBQ'd car!! :)
