He did, I went back and checked. I just want verification that this is motor #2 and just not more pictures of motor #1.

^ this ^

From when I blow the engine till today I never pull it out of the car.

inb4 no more stock rods

Holy cracked block, ouch.

My vote goes for using the crank that comes with the donor short block you will be buying, being that everything from that motor is pretty useless (coffee table maybe?) and it will be nice to have the crank that is original to the block/rods.

Even the bearings are to be take std :dealwithit:

two minutes ago I ordered:

8.6:1 supertechs +1mm overbore (with rings)
hondata heatshield intake gasket (will it really increase hp??)
supertech valve seals
acl race main + rods bearings
acl thrust washers

now I can build bottom end :vash2:

what conrods are you going to use?

try to weightmatch them with the pistons

well, all that knock was definitely legitimate, not false :party:

and I must say, my hat is off to you sir for a very creative destruction of that BP

that is some serious carnage. I dont think I've seen a main bearing galley cracked through like that

I'm gonna change my knock sensor btw, I've got a better one

He finally answers to one of the millions of """"free energy"""" videos on youtube. I love this guy

The clutch is arrived today:

stage 2 pressure plate, stage 3 disc

even the stiffer engine mounts are arrived.. even the engine gaskets, water pump, seals, head gasket, valve seals.....

but the pistons and bearings are not even on the way :vash:

I HAVE to wait and stay calm, I don't need anything else, I have to stop buying other parts :x:

First I thought that it was from a '94 because it has the cas and a secondary water temp sensor next to the rear cover

When I tried to fit both intake and exhaust manifolds I noticed that are bolt-on

I don't know which particular version of mx5 comes with cas and secondary coolant temp sensor, but all the Nb 99/00 in Italy comes with only one sensor and no cas

That IS a 94-97 head, the casting number is BP05 on the head. THe VICS manifold will physically bolt on but the ports wont even be close to matching up.

Fuck
I didn't noticed when I tried to fit

Did anyone have a BP05 manifold that fit on my 1.8 throttle body? :party:
