kzr750r1 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) If you buy a new ring compressor from HF, do yourself a favor. De Burr the inner flap of the coil. Pistons in before midnight Pacific. So It's a short block by 2014... Wrapped for 2015. Edited January 1, 2015 by kzr750r1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBT Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 SubenWagen also sees tow-duty, which means longer duration boost periods, especially on the hills, so planning accordingly when the time comes. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 Good point. Think I have a decent compromise in play. All remains to be seen if they were good choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fahr_side Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 You'll be fine at 3 thou. I think Manley are pretty generous with the clearances.

CloudSeed777 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Yes, I have the standard ARP head kit. What I need to find are the alignment dowels... First things first though. Install Pistons, Rear main seal and covers, chuck it in the motor stand.... Today. I tore mine up pretty good getting them out so i had to replace them. You can pick these up at Subaru. Order them online it's cheaper. I picked mine up from the dealer and they were $3.46 a piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted January 7, 2015 Author Share Posted January 7, 2015 These came out clean... No idea how the machine shop did it. Just need to track them down. By nature I'm a horder so no way I've thrown them out. Still a couple of Items I'm not finding a source for other than the stealership. For sure going to replace all the screws for the backing plates. These were a little munged getting out with an impact driver. I don't want to have hicksta traces in my build if I can help it.

kzr750r1 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Starting to pile up. Still need some small bits. Gonna make a trip to the stealership this week for an order on the rest. Have company 23 stickers to burn as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FJuan Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 O.I.C., I might be mistaking, because I've seen several stamps on them and seen 23 advertised on one of them. My wife's balls are delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kzr750r1 Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Mid to early February is likely unless I run into some other stupid roadblock. I should have all my parts next week. Slow for sure, I should beat Rootbeer and Boxkita at this pace though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kzr750r1 Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 Subaru parts ordered, should be the last of it. Transmission seal Screws for the back plates Head to case dowels, cause I can't find them for some reason. Not a huge deal if I do. Will look more this weekend. Will have to check and confirm. I think this is the last of the order from Infamous. Snout! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kzr750r1 Posted February 7, 2015 Author Share Posted February 7, 2015 Almost a month. Yeah, that and life in general... Cleaning parts right now to button up the SB and get it on the stand this weekend. Need to clean the plugs that cover the wrist pin access. All of them had residual blow by oil/carbon crud on them. I'll be putting some fuji bond on the threads when they go it in addition to the crush washers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 Strange the plugs have a call out for sealant in the FSM and a crush washer yet show no signs of residual sealant was installed... Hence the oil leaks. Granted they were not bad leaks but leaks none the less that turned the oil into carbon crudness. Going back in now with fuji bond coated threads.
