i'll start enquiring about the machining next week. do you have any idea how much it is going to be? the waterjackets and the headstuds (i don't need anything else do i?) http://vwnettet.dk/topic/120372#post-213341 Fri, 17 Jun 2005 00:03:00 +0000 Duus 213341@http://vwnettet.dk/ You can get them at: http://www.aircooled.net/new-bin/viewproductdetail.php?keyword2=ECV0015&cartid=0616200562626893

I dont think that the T4 slr and w120 combo would require machining.

any idea where to get them online?

cheers! http://vwnettet.dk/topic/120372#post-213339 Thu, 16 Jun 2005 21:06:59 +0000 Duus 213339@http://vwnettet.dk/ I use scat T1 slr lube a lobe lifters 8O

You can also get T4 lifters which have been slr coated, but I dont have the knowledge to tell you which cams they would work with.
Farmer once told me that if i wanted good power and still keep the T4 lifters, a good choice would be slr T4 lifters with a web 163(between w110 and w120) - I would go with that combo if I had kept the T4 lifters.

Because of the higher lift(web 86b) and the thickness of the "lifterhead" I machine the case to the right cam/lifter clearences.

what are you doing with the lifters in your topic?? you are machining them from the inside of the case?? http://vwnettet.dk/topic/120372#post-213337 Thu, 16 Jun 2005 14:59:47 +0000 Duus 213337@http://vwnettet.dk/ [quote:7f192f1725="Anonymous"]unfortunately i live in the Netherlands...

do you see anything wrong about the specs? or the lifters? please tell me over the forum or email me at died_zeel@hotmail.com

Duus, since i need to get those headstuds done professionally, perhaps i also get those lifter things bushed or something. i guess type 1 racing lifters are safer in the end, right?

p.s. please answer the question about the cleaning as well :roll:[/quote:7f192f1725]

I think that the w120 with 1:1,25 rockers would be too hard for the std. T4 lifters to handle - but you really should get somebody with more knowledge to answer this... http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=84075

About the cleaning just buy some engine/carb cleaner liquid. The diesel may also work, but I havent tried it. http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=77948&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=cleaning&start=15 http://vwnettet.dk/topic/120372#post-213336 Thu, 16 Jun 2005 13:21:48 +0000 Anonym 213336@http://vwnettet.dk/ unfortunately i live in the Netherlands...

76mm reground WBX crankshaft with I beam 5.4 rods
standard WBX bearings (??) and stock 215mm type 4 flywheel
Mahle 94mm pistons and cylinders (gotta get them machined somehow :roll: )
Engle 120 cam with standard T4 lifters and SCAT aluminium push rods
044 heads with 40mm and 37.5mm valves (i'll do the porting following Morten's guide
009 distributor
40 mm Dell'orto carbs
type 1 fanshroud (what kind to make it fit??)
what exhaust?? 1 1/2 or 1 5/8?
and everything i forget (tell me if i forgot vital elements :o

this leaves me with the following machining on the case:
- removing waterjackets (using a handheld grinder)
- relocating headstuds (how much does this cost??)

Duus, how did you machine the last part of the waterjackets cos it looks great?!
Do i need to clean the case after grinding because a lot of metal goes into the case right? how do i do this? or should i use tape before grinding?

cheers!!!! 8)[/quote:875cea1757]

you can try to call me i can help you with questions

Dennis_rol :wink: 20647505 http://vwnettet.dk/topic/120372#post-213334 Thu, 16 Jun 2005 10:03:30 +0000 Anonym 213334@http://vwnettet.dk/ all right, so what do you clean with and what do i wash the chips of with? i once heard diesel can be used for cleaning 8O

how do i get farmer to answer the question? :wink:

so, the rest of the setup was good Duus? i only forget the SCAT 1:1.25 ratio rockers... http://vwnettet.dk/topic/120372#post-213333 Wed, 15 Jun 2005 21:09:11 +0000 Duus 213333@http://vwnettet.dk/ [quote:ad14bd8c98="Anonymous"]how about:

Before cutting the waterjackets you should clean the two parts of the case perfectly... when you're done with the machining you'll just wash all chips off. Be sure that you dont get chips in the oil channels to lifters and cam/crank bearings.
I did the machining on a milling machine - If you have acces to one it is rather easy.

I would use a 1 5/8" merged header.
I dont know if a w120 would work with solid T4 lifters. You could ask Farmer(or wait for him to answer)...
