also only gonna stick the vtr engine in as i want to be different, everyone these days just drops a s lump in, but i personally think the vtr is better  |
ive just brought a vtr lump for my quiksilver as they have the same engine as the furio.
im just getting it fitted as i have 1 months warrenty on the engine so want get it in see if it is a dencet one whilst its still in warenty.
im keeping my 1.4 gearbox (should be quicker accelaration that vtr aswell
)
new quicksilver clutch
timing belt kit including rollers and tensioner
water pump
engine oil+oil filter
sparkplugs
gearbox oil
fuel filter
new coolant and power steering fluid
get the valve clearancies adjusted and set up.
if ur rebuilding the enigine i would change all the parts in the above list plus, headgasket,camsaft seals,valve seals,rocker cover gakset,sump gasket,head bolts (as they are strech fit).
then undo the 2 bolts on the big eads and check the big ends and push the piston up from underneith and check all the piston rings, if any cracks or scoring then these will neede changing. if not then i would just refit.
if you do want to cam the engine then this is the best time to do it as the cam goes into the head from the bottom up so means the head needs to come off the block so new headgasket ect.
if you do cam the engine then remember your going to need a veriner pully unless you find a cam that will run on standard timing but u want a veriner puly so u can get it set up on a rolling road and get the timing adjusted to make the most bhp.
if i was you i would clean the engine up get it fitted and do a compesion test on the engine to check the headgasket.
if it passes then just keep abit aside for if it does go on you.
give it a good service including getting the valves set up right.
then add a decent exhaust manifold and airfilter and jobs a good one.
you might be able to run the vtr engine on your furio ecu if you have the vtr injectors i will soon be able to tell you 100% as im hopefully having mine put in next weekend
