Havenot tried the kl stage2 cam. it would be intersting to hear from some that has. Some endurance on the valve train is desirable, so i would rather not have a cam intended for drag only, but going for mechanical lifters would be acceptable just as long as the cam doesent wear away the bores in a h...

Let me just restart this tread regarding the cam question. I am still a bit puzzled that the 16v isent more willing to rev on stock cams, and am looking for advise. Normally, a japanese 16v engine, or other 4valved engines i have worked with in the past, tend to like revs even better with turbo, how...

Hi all ;-) Have this 245 16v that i have gotten serious problems with. Car is giving 563bhp, 683Nm with a garrett 60mm turbo from a scania bus, 8,8liter engine i believe it was. Just about everything was built from reworked stock parts. Started with a 6speed M5 E39 gearbox on a sachs 763 plate with ...

Finish honing now, and with the stressplate it does change the pattern a bit. Measuring the pistons(used b234f) 12mm down the skirt gives -0,05mm Measuring the bores after honing they give me +0,12mm, or a total piston-bore clearance of 0,17mm. I am quite concerned this is too much, and will lead to...

Im still running stock sized pistons, and another question is how much clearance the B230(4) will run before it starts rocking the pistons excessivly.
I can clean up the bores at approximately 96,09mm bore. It seems excessive, but what do you guys think?

Hi. Thought i would share a few observations. Im streetracing a 245 with B234 turbo. It is building 563bhp, 723Nm on pumpgas, Vpower. It has started giving me a few headgasket failures, despite being oringed. It is running a garrett 60mm turbo off a bus on long headers. I know from datalogs that the...

Okay, thats new information to me. Any link to one that will add transbrake? The box is different from say aw341 in the control method, since the electric shiftvalves are operted in sequence, not in patterns. Regardless how you activate the shiftvalves, they only work in sequence due to the hydrauli...

Well, eventually, i will reverseengineer the stock MB converter and see if i can figure out how to make it stall whereever i want it. Actually, this is somewhat interesting: MB used the 722.6 transmission in the c180 series with just ~129hp/5300rpm. It would be my guess that that converter would hav...

Well, i will rather think i need more low end torque to drive stall up higher. I cant simulate that with the manual gb, cause what you are suggesting will obviously kill power. I know the engine will maintain boost far better than it will build boost in reasonable time, so put it this way: If i can ...

Hi All. Im building 722.6 MB automat into a 245Turbo with B234. Im making 560bhp and 670Nm on pumpgas now, but this is relatively high up in RPM compared with the original stall the E55 AMG had.(where the automat comes from). My fastest 60foot was 1.77sek with manual 530D 5speed, but the car is very...

Hi. Im searching for a cadfile to compare my measurements with. Anyone have the boltpattern in a file, or on paper? showing the B230 boltpattern, and likewise the boltpattern for the mercedes 722.6 gearbox(OM606 or similar will do). Im trying to pair up the 722.6 gearbox to a volvo redblock. Anyone ...

295kpa absolute of course.

A small update. The car has been dynoed on a rolling road to 561bhp/6073rpm, and 685Nm/5403rpm @295kpa manifold pressure. Ordinary Shell Vpower. Fastest 201: 1,77sek 60feet 7,91sek 201m Fastest 402 last year. 1/4 in 12,32sek @ 196km/t It puzzles me that the engine falls "flat" on its face ...

Solved. So here is the plot: The fuel pressure clock was giving readings of 3bar at priming, and drop to 2,2 after quite some time. Not unusual. It was reading a bit on the high side at engine vacuum but nothing alarming. Clock was moving accordingly to vaccum so we though fuel pressure was fine. Te...

Reflashed MS2. No changes.
Replaced MS2, with old software, no changes.
Updated it, no changes.
Swapped manifold back to F intake, kept 840cc injectors, no changes.
Swapped to 465cc injectors, then it was a bit less obvious, but otherwise not really different.

Will try swapping cam back to A-cam.
