Turbo Propellor
 

Looking at my turbo i noticed that the propellor is damaged on the outside, would this still be ok to use??

no! thats fuked:?

Thats not just fuked, it's proper fuked :sadnod:

Didnt you feel it?when the squirrel passed throught it lol

Must of smashed it on his nuts!!! They eat lots I hear...

LOL, cheers guys.......

hows the build getting on mate?

Very slowly LOL, went to cheam motors the other day to order the left side rocker cover gasket, inlet manifold gaskets and the rubber o-ring seals for in the middle of the block. The conrods are also on the crank so thats ready to go. I also measured the gaps between the cam lobes and tappets and hopefully figure out correct sizes, it does get a little confusing. Are these the correct gaps 0.20 for the Inlet and 0.25 for the exhaust... Because i noticed that on the info i have it says that upto 98 they are self adjusting (hydrolic) and they don't look like they are...

Its all scary stuff, i just hope it works at the end.... :-|

LOL at turbo, hmm...... how did the engine fail in the end..... could it of ingested bits of turbo ??

What boost where you running to cause that damage ?

will check valve clearances in the morning, would be worth checking the clearances once the heads are torqued down. what heads are you using?

also would be worth checking/cleaning out the I.C and pipe work just incase theres any crap from the turbo in them.

Would over boosting do that to the impeller???

I am using the standard heads and i have torqued up the cam caps, changed the valve stem oil seals and lapped in the valves. Most of the I.C pipes are already off but i will check them and clean the again.

Cheers for that Jaffa
