make shore to use a good manifold like 6boost with external wast gate for good boost control and 3in exh will make that hp no problem
I was thinking of a GAS manifold (Garvice Auto Shop
)
I was faced with the same problem if I was to use the Getrag 6 speed in my conversion. The 5 speed ZF fits exactly in the same position as the original crossmember and is a nicer shifting box so that made the decision for me.
I know what it is like to put off jobs, I bought this gearbox about 2 years ago to put behind my L28. Even had an adapter and had machined up the bellhousing. Just didn't get around to building the transmission mount until now.
Back on topic.....great work on the new mount setup. I too would have thought the engine would lean more to the exhaust side like a factory RB install.
Thanks. I thought about leaning it like normal, but then thought, no, it will look much better standing up. Also gives me more room to work around the turbo (the gtr I pulled it out of was far to cramped around the turbos, would hate to work on one). But mainly it just looks cool.
the only reason i run rb on the angle is so you dont upset the sump pick up .but im sure you will mod the sump to fix the problem
Yeah another job to do. I have an rd28 sump to modify or a r200 sump to modify. Or might even make my own. (Already given into the fact that this is a long term project, hopefully I have it done before my 7month old gets his license.
