1983 244 D24TIC repower

Well I finally decided that my engine in my car has had enough..
Little history; the engine that is currently installed in my car came from a rusted out POS 740 with 243,xxx miles on it. I did a quick re-ring, gasket match and porting job on the cylinder head. I recorded all clearances when put together, amazingly enough the rotating assembly was all in new spec. Cylinder head was far from being in spec though.. Should of been rebuilt 100,000 ago... So there is now 70,xxx miles on this engine that was quickly put together, so it has a total of 313,xxx miles with no machine work. During those 70,xxx miles it has seen 30 psi of boost, 20 psi on a daily basis and the injection pump has been maxed the whole time. I'm very curious to see what it looks like on the inside. Here is the car that's getting the transplant. |

The beautiful engine that is going in.
85 D24T with matched rods, 1mm oversize KS pistons, Clevite Bearings, ARP head studs, Erling 1 notch fiber head gasket, early 11mm cylinder head that has been modified for 12mm studs, it's been ported and gasket matched, it also received a nice set of TRW valves.. To top it off I got some brand new old stock made in France Bosch injectors and a injection pump. |
Is that Pontiac blue?

Slow on the progress.. It will be ready for the Swedish car show though. Another picture of the engine with cleaned up exhaust manifold and oil filter bracket with temp sensor.
