dj-madman 146 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Dudes and dudettesWhat tool is needed to remove the crank out the block? I have the aux pulley removed and the plate is out also. Just need to undo all the bolts holding the crank in. Now a torx bit or allan key just don't feel right.If anyone knows please post up Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
bennyk 1,238 Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Hi mate, I think the tool you need is an m10 multispline, if you're talking about what I think you are, sealey do complete sets of them for about £15-£20. VR6CABBS 1 Link to post Share on other sites

dj-madman 146 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I will create a build thread but just wanted to share my crank and block pics. For a motor who's done 120k I don't think she looks too sadPistons need a good clean alsoSent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Bealieboy 1 Link to post Share on other sites

dj-madman 146 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Telling me mate. Car being picked up at 10 to be brought down here. Then just need to drop the block and head into the shop to get cleaned and tested. Then paint and put back together. Although some little 'bits' dropped out as I Turned the block upright I think they came from the oil feed holes for the crank. Squeals feel free to come down anytime.My main concern is getting the air con into the k reg now. Am hoping I have the hole in the bulk head for the pollen filterSent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk VR6CABBS 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Mk3highline 287 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Wow my 24v conversion cost lot less than that before I sold the left overs I'd suggest imo if your going all out is to get the block decked and Pistons slightly skimmed to bump up compression as well as using the steel head gasket to get close to 11-1 c/r You will get more torque everywhere and slightly better mpg cruising And in future if you get some cams the gains will be lot betterJust my 2p Link to post Share on other sites

Mk3highline 287 Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I wanted to rebuild my 12v but after looking at cost I thought a 24v will be cheaper and more powerful Link to post Share on other sites
