Thread: Motor almost finished

Got the motor back last Monday from Tischler. Everything is new besides the pistons (which were cleaned and re-coated) and the ZZP S3 heads. Balanced, blueprinted and flowtested. Also painted the engine bay and had some parts polished too over the winter break.









From Tischler:





















Flowtest:







Polished Parts: (no pic of alternator)





PAINTED ENGINE BAY:





RE-PAINTED HEADS:

nice

I would guess balls to the wall turbo build, but it looks like a stock tb and maf which wouldn't work so good. . . so I'm not sure

Thanks, we are taking our time and making sure that everything is re-done before we put it in. Yes they are forged diamonds. To paint we use regular spray gun with an air compressor...tons of sanding and prep X100...then we did 2 coats of paint and 3 coats of clear.....turned out excellent.

Wow dude, looks great, all of it. That block is VERY clean and the cylinders look awesome! Props to the machine shop who did the work on that.

Cant wait to see it all finished and running. Going to look sweet, as well as run and sound awesome I bet.

Got to love all those polished parts too, that front engine cover came out good didn't it?

~F~

THANKS Farns!!! Tischler Performance built the motor (obviously) and some guy named GR8racingfool did an ok job on polishing The front engine cover is fuking sick!!! I took it into advanced to match up the star bolts to change the oil gears and I had like 3 guys + 2 of the workers almost wacking over it.....Thanks again....
