Hence why I’m not spending any more money on analog. Aftermarket is the logical next step. I’ll see how it drives with the regraph, fresh fuel and one less vacuum leak. The last time I bought petrol it was $1.50/L for 98...
Hi.Yes, sorry they are chromecoatedplated.
I did warn you not to do finish off the valve clearances until the head was torqued down. They move around a lot. The inlets are ok, but when it gets hot you'll probably ride an exhaust valve (or two). They need to be 0.012" minimum. I know the book says 0.013".From cylinder 1, with the lobe pointed up I'm getting
Now the head guy set the clearances as 8-10 thou for the intake and 10-12 thou for the exhaust (cold). He doesn't have exact figures as that was 6 months ago.

I've used Hastings rings many times, both moly-filled and chromeAt the time I could only source a Hastings kit which has chrome-moly compression rings and I understand these take a long time to seat.
flock, your setup there looks a bit offI can’t figure out how best to mount the reservoir. The Si bracket and fusebox makes it foul the battery. For now it just looks like this:
2. You will need a dual channel amp, eg as fitted to an XU10J4 etc. or similar. The PS1000 can't ground the coil(s) directly.2. Ditch dizzy, run 2 ignition wires to an SI coil. I think if it has a 4-pin plug, it must have external 12V and GND, and the PS1000 should be able to drive it without an amplifier. Motronic flywheel and sensor already on the car.
4. Keep a narrowband sensor but also wire up an input for wideband from the cabin. Can I just borrow a CAN/analog wideband controller to aid in tuning and then run the car with narrowband from then on? I don't see the need for the extra complexity of a permanent WBC and repositioning the exhaust bung for longevity of the sensor, if the engine protection function can still work with a NB voltage target and the car is tuned open loop. Without speaking to a tuner, it looks like you can program closed loop O2 within a set of limits (idle, cruising conditions).
5. Tee off External MAP from fuel regulator, or tap a hole more centrally in the manifold since the fuel vacuum line is pretty much on the 4th cylinder runner.

I've got a spare pwr steer fluid reservoir bracket with the M10 nuts if you need it free
2. You will need a dual channel amp, eg as fitted to an XU10J4 etc. or similar. The PS1000 can't ground the coil(s) directly.
4. Just buy a new wideband (and controller) which has a 0-5V output. I'm not sure if the PS1000 can do CAN wideband. You only need the one bung & sensor. It can do all.
5. Use the internal map sensor in the PS1000. Tee off to fuel regulator.
