let the plenum work begin! wbx upgrade...

Now i have the parts, thanks to, Sarlin race team, KKD, Marko Paajanen,

 Kotten...and soon Mr. welder M. Lindgren.

Christmas's came early. ok, there's a lot to do, but at least the parts are here. :-)

BTW the manifold is just for mock-up. the real ones are at the garage.

 

the race trans is here!

 it took long, but its finally here, rhino case, liberty gears, super diff, karpiola race axles, etc... still needs brakes. have to search what i have. maybe the porsche 4-pots would be great.  but im ok, with new drums too. more later on...

wbx bug works again!

 i went to somero, with some new battery cables etc to fix that pesky little bug, nutlike i earlier thought, that the problem is with the ground, so i dismantled the battery cable and put wire back in the cable shoe, and the extra wires very tight, and suddenly there was power in the battery. and now it even starts, and runs, and i drove it. i also made it to the cottage, and it was the best day, in a month. yesterday, i picked up a turn signal switch, but looks like it isn't like the original part. but have to check youtube for some help. 

if i got it working again - that might be the biggest issue for that bug, one brake bulb needs to be changed too, and the exhaust needs some welding but then its inspection time. and the turbo kit is getting better all the time. but that's another story. 

more parts for the wbx

 ...and the oxygen got a new part also. for the oiling...much better!

little wash for the wasserboxer...

these came today, brackets, gaskets...

oxyboxer update 2

some parts that i already had, now in need...

45 idf throttle body

a spare wbx-longblock is good for the try-outs

oil feed-line for the turbo. 

for the oiling, i just need a 90 degree part and that is ready then.

had to remove the oil filler tube from the wasser block

type 1 hide-a-way header

here you can see the difference of the 

wbx and the typ1

exhaust flange for the 3 & 4 cylinder

there's gonna be the oil drain location

here i have to get a 90 degree an-fitting from the turbo

a tight bend, but might be good this week

have to have a welder to make correct parts in here.

and a thermal sock for the hose too.

hot place, but i will fix some thermotec or similar

have to check the angle to the block too, so that its always descending

had to change the throttle bore 

to the oxyboxer too, looks promising, but needs some gaskets...

stay tuned...
