Lizzord30 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Awsome work on this!! Have any more Pictures of the Engine like the Exhaust Manifolds/Headers I am very much considering a 6G74 Swap SOHC 24v 3.5L for the Montero (some swap issues will be removed because of it being RWD configuration to begin with I hope)\ PS engine looks awsome! too bad they dont make turbos that spin the other direction so it would be more symmetrical lol Maybe can get some Aussie turbos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFBMX88 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 Just curious what you're using for a master cylinder. It looks shorter and made of aluminum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Hincher Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 there is a difference in starter rotation that has been asked about , when you do a reverse starter application, its good to know you rotate the enging in the proper directionhttp://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing17.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing18.JPG I must have torn apart 50 starters looking for length and directionhttp://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing19.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing20.JPG I hated the first starter location, there were two problems with it, first in didnt set the starter between bellhousing bolt boses and relied on only one main bolt station to limlt and deflection in the starter, the other problem was special shifter linkage would have been required http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing22.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing24.JPG because of the depth of the starter gear, I had a choice. build a custom gear or build the starter body right into the bellhousing, well I hate custom parts, all these parts are available over the counter so I spent the time to place the front of the starter pocket into the bellhousing http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing30.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing31.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing32.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing33.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing34.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing35.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing36.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing37.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing41.JPG I should be filling it all in and getting it to casting this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Komeuppance Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 PS engine looks awsome! too bad they dont make turbos that spin the other direction so it would be more symmetrical lol Maybe can get some Aussie turbos Haha but they do make "reverse" turbos. Look for an MHI "R" turbo (td05HR, td06HR). -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo_Addict Posted January 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 Finally getting back to this - changed jobs and I am not on the road every single week any longer. Woohoo! Anyhow, here is how she stands now. And with Bill and his amazing work, now it's about time to tackle the transmission. Got the intercooler mounted, had to mod all the piping because I mounted a tad higher than the previous car, but I am able to maintain the bumpers integrity this way, and that was important to me. Got the radiator temporarily in place with zip ties and will work on the permanent mounts soon. http://www.26liter.us/gallery/albums/userpics/10156/icpiping1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Hincher Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 (edited) I can't put a number to the time involved but I need to build it in kit form and figure out what it will cost, I have some new dies for my equipment being built now so I can do the job better/faster This will come with the starter, housing and flexplate sooooooooooooo If I was a betting man I would put it in the $600.00 range but there is a lot more coming, the water pump conversion is needed for this engine for this to work and I have a few suprises Edited January 22, 2012 by Bill Hincher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Hincher Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 the original starter motor arriangement on all these starters are just two bolts, I have changed that to use all 4 bolts to attach the starter to the sandwich platehttp://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing110.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing114.JPGbecause of weight and drafting considerations, I knew a plate would have to be placed in the starter placement so a bolt could be attached to the rear of the starter motorhttp://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing116.JPG http://www.billsautofab.com/images/6G72adapterC4bellhousing117.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
