I don't think the standard Maf will work, however I am soon at the end of my knowledge and need it remapping Link to post Share on other sites
ky_uk 304 Posted August 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Upon further inspection I know the bearings in the supercharger pulley has gone also I think the the other sound is a failed head gasket, the previous owner said he put double head gasket on the block but I am starting to not believe a thing he said.So new pulleys, new spacer plate, new gaskets all round and new bearings on the charger if anyone has anymore input I would really appreciate it not long before the remap.

Airone 16 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) Engine mount... For the centre of gravity if nowt else.... Edited August 21, 2015 by Airone Link to post Share on other sites
ky_uk 304 Posted August 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) gearbox...For the centre of gravity if nowt else.... That is what I am doing I researched it today and it can stress he block mounting from the side, so your right Airone only problem is now I need a clutch removal tool I love all the new things I am learning Edited August 21, 2015 by ky_uk Airone 1 Link to post Share on other sites

c00k 435 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) I mounted my engine on the stand, from the rear engine mount holes. You don't need the black extension arms.And you need to make a spacer, I used some uni-strut. To level the side of engine. It will give you easier access to the clutch and timing chains. This was mine... Edited August 22, 2015 by c00k Link to post Share on other sites

This was mine... I saw people doing that but was worried about stressing the engine, I guess that's not the case because yours is fine and more to the point you make a good point about access to chains.
