Tom's B6 Build Thread
Well I'm starting a thread for TominMO, so he can keep track of his build. I figured this was a good way for him (and everybody) to watch his B6+RT build. So many of you already know, but for those who don't...I'm trading Tom for Casper. I'm supplying parts/labor/and a thread :lol: Tom did help alot by cleaning parts. Here's the start. I'll keep taking and posting pics.
I asked Tom if it was ok to run/dyno the car before and after, and he said "yes" so this will be interesting. Sad thing is that I've never done a build thread. I'll practice here.
Here's the specs.
Current: B3 (161k miles) running timing advanced a little and '93 octane. I'll try to run and dyno the stock setup.
Installing: A B6 Sohc (unknown miles, but clean) and a custom RT package. This motor came out of xanthinic12's car. It was at one time fotm.
Rear turbo.
E-series trans.
Spec stage1 clutch.
New timing belt, water pump, front/rear main seals, vc/op gaskets. I'm sure it will end up with more as I go
Meet Tom (TominMO) He likes kerosene
His motor runs good but is not quite "strong" enough...............:lol:
And his new motor before any work has begun..................................
So Let's take that valve cover off and see what we see................................
Oooops forgot to get a pic of the header..................................
After a couple hours of cleaning and disassembly this is what we have.......also installed a new front seal and WP..................
Updates coming soon.............................................. ..
