BenH_Ke70

what ignition did you use exactly? if you don't mind me asking. Did you use a crank angle sensor for timing?, i don't understand why you would have to program the map positions seperately, did you run a vaccum line from the manifold with a resivoir (spelling) to equalize the vaccum reading?

Was checking out wheels online and saw this My link so i tried to do this... this is original size dish but my center doesn't fit the other way around!! :bash: I measured it, its about 2-3mm narrower diameter on the opposite side of the rim What's the chances/price/isitevenworthit of getting either center cap or rim tickled down a little bit?? for CRAZY AWSOME DEESHH!! :D like 1mm off the centre all the way round would probably do it

yes a 4age head would make a fair bit more power, the advantage of using the 4ac head is its cheaper and also less mucking around with electrics as you would be able to run it all with standard loom. although 4age head and carbs just running on dizzy with locked out timing wouldn't be too much of a hassle. I've been reading up on megajolt junior ignition system, seems to be the go for running carbs without a dizzy. Not too expensive, and you can fully program ignition curve, vaccumm advance and some other stuff. makes it a bit easier to tune

stock standard 4k ke70, did 555km's to full 40L tank and literally ran it dry. luckily made it up the last hill before the servo.. this included a couple hours of cultivating a particular vacant space of land in an industrial area, some offroading, towing an eb falcon for a few blocks and few other shinanigans

just read all the responses to this thread and wondering what the original method was lol, do you remove the front guards to do them or just the wheels? and wooden dolly and hammer, work out the rest..

hmm, well if i managed to get a hold of an ae71 wreck.. no idea how hard they are to find... I reckon it would be worth it, it's one step up from a 4k and its easier/cheaper than a 7age and then its halfway there anyway, thrash it around for a while and save up for 7age build :)

yeh seems fairly straight forward.. soo for ke70 would need ae71/ae86 crossmember and engine mounts? t50 gearbox, 7afe or 4k flywheel and clutch, tailshaft shortened? and wouldn't have to touch the loom, bolt on the webers, laughin

hahah don't all ke70's with modified/cut off exhausts sound fast :P this is another option :P My link

hmm, might end up spending more on the 4k than i planned.. to be honest i want a 4age lol, but i want more out of my 4k in the meantime. thus my reasoning for carbies, but if i have to build up the 4k to use them then i will just save m oney for 4age haha.. Thanks altezza, put it simply the car will drown with all that extra fuel of the webers.

so what does it look like now?

my 38 dcoe sideraft carbs :) would it be worth putting them on a stock 4k with a set of extractors? better throttle response or power increase? I am pretty sure they were set up for a ford Kent motor 1600cc specs: 30mm venturis F11 Emulsion Tubes 180 air correction jets 140 main jets 45 f23 idle jets Just looking for a little feedback, maybe someone who has a similiar setup could shed some light, I'm kinda thinking that unless I modify my engine i probably wont gain much at all.. might just save these for another project..

thanks mate, only got a 6 point socket, and couldn't find imperial one to fit, that makes sense tho, the bolts looks as though its designed for a 12 point socket.. conclusion, need better tools haha

ok forget that hahaha i found them, but the have a weird head, not like a regular bolt head they almost look like a spline from something, 10mm is too small and 11mm socket is slipping on the bolt, strangeee... would they be imperial size? this is a 2001 model engine wtf

First of all I have never pulled an engine apart before. closest i've come is pulling a carby off a moto and what not. I took off the cam cover, pulled off the fuel system and the headers, got the cams out... where do i go from here? what holds the head to the block? is it just the headgasket sealing it on or is there other bolts somewhere.. haha I know how nooby this must sound, but hey gotta learn somehow

being young(er) trying to start my paddock keto with a 2Lt coke bottle shoved down the carb, rewrewrewrewrrew BAANNGG!! oh that sounded cool rewrewrewrwew WTF FLAMESS AAGHHHH!! jump out and start running around like headless chicken, not sure wether to run back and pull the fuel bottle off and save the ke70 from inferno or bail and dive just in time for massive holiwood style explosion :no2:
