  1. yeah i was planning on keeping the box in the same position, just cutting away the chassis leg.

    No point in making custom driveshafts, as i need easy to find spares.

    Ive gotta keep 1600cc, anyone ever fitted a 20v into a RHD? or is the master cylinder in the way?

  2. piston rings, like bearings, wear out.

    You can get a honing tool from machine mart, cheap and easy to use, Piston rings are £50 the set from general traffic,

    Its cost effective to do it all at once, honing the bores piston rings and lapping the valves makes a big difference to the power and smooth running of your motor. It will be like a new engine.
    Plus removing the coke from the piston tops will lower the temp a huge amount, allowing you to run extra boost without detonation.

  3. the ranger is 1999, I took the body off and restored the chassis, alltho thats a UK truck, they do have rangers in the US but LHD. 2WD rangers drift for fun!

    and the S10 is 1993, Same with that, took the body off, painted chassis and body :) The 20's are a bit too gangsta, so i got some early 90's Boyd coddington 17x10 3 spokes for that OG look. engine is 170bhp 300lb+, so awesome for towing the rally car and loaded with spares.

    You can pick up S10's from around £3K, not too bad for getting parts, get them shipped over from USAutomotive or ebay.

  4. if its spun the bearing, the crank will defo be scored, so need a regrind, and oversize bearings.

    if your doing all thatn work, you might as well take the head off, and clean all the pistons, hone the bores and stick new rings in, Lap the valves in and new stem seals, then you will have an engine that will really last and be back to origional power.

  5. ford ranger single cab 2wd 2.5 n/a diesel. most reliable car i have ever owned! ran on cooking oil too!
    Slammed it, so it was easy to put stuff in the back :)

    I sold it and got a Chevy S10 4.3L, great for towing, burnouts, and pretty quick for a truck

  7. ive used brake caliper paint, works really well, if your doing a real nice engine, then single pack and 2k laquer.

    All depends on the prep, how much dirt/oil is left on the block.
