The results are in and looking good, just waiting for the graphs from the engine builders.

The cylinder head cc before was 79cc after 80cc with the Ferrea valves but this has remained about the same due to the seating of the valves been deeper I,m told.
 
did you match each chamber? 80ccs is bigger than i was expecting. i would have thought that even though the new valves are seated deeper, your volume would have gone DOWN, not up. what kind of compression are you expecting to get after all is said and done? you took some off the head and block, didnt you? (being lazy, dont want to go back through the whole thread)
 
Funny, that head design is significantly different than the 2 2F heads I currently have.

the late model 2F head (off of block #2F 889248) I have looks a lot like a bathtub and the 79 2F head is shallower and flatter.. Also the runners are different profiles between the two motors as well.

Neither has the shaped ports..

I think the shaped inlet ports are only found on the 3F-E head as thats where the injectors sit when the injection rail is bolted up. If I understand you correctly.

Hard to see in this pic but the injection rail seen at the bottom of the photo matches the inlet ports

The compression will be 8.0:1 but that will be set by the pistons from what I understand not the head cc, although this information is required to set the block and custom pistons to the right hight. Hope that makes sence, trying to take a lot of tec info in from my engine builder here lol

You can see on the second photo on this page that their is some slight machine work to the kidney to accomadate the exhaust port better.

Yes each combustion chamber was tested. This engine will be balanced too.

Found a better photo from before the clean up, you can see the injectors inside, hence the shape of the ports.

Final bill pretty close to the estimate



Also the Flow Test HP, CFM I can't recall old age bad memory waiting on the graphs and figures

Before 250HP AFTER 350HP

Now as I understand it this is not the actual engine HP but just the capasity of the max air flow. I think it's like making sure you have enough gas from your fuel pump.
Eg: not enough fuel been delivered engine will run lean and you need a bigger fuel pump, not enough air and it will run rich and you need to increase your air flow.

AS you can see substantial gains can be made from the above work.

Some one please correct me if I'm wrong:)

I'm told this increase will suit the Turbo well:grinpimp:

was there a large difference in cc between the chambers? I think some of us are wondering how far off each chamber is.

No all were pretty close and my engine builder would not have bothered if we were not going to try to push the engine so hard.
 
Matt, Mark W.

While I was under the hood today observing the dribble of brake fluid down my booster, it made me wonder if the intake on the 3FE set up will clear it. I have seen a lot of posts on that subject. Does the booster need replacement with the mini-truck unit to provide clearance? It looks like a tight fit there.

I belive your correct from what I have reading but:grinpimp:

I drive on the other side of the road so my brake booster is opposite to your US ones.

This is a great thread, thanks for taking so many good pics of the head work. How much meat was taken out of the heads? Im interested to know what kind of material removal nets the best flowbench results.

Tks, the photos were taken by the engine builder for me.

Hard to say what porting and polishing gains for the flow as the valves were done at the same time, it all certainaly helps. Porting was matched to the manifold gasket I belive, If you look closely at the photos you can see the lines that the ports were opened up to. Pic 4 I think marked on the head.
The big improvment will be from the oversize valves and the selection of the right cam. As I understand it.

The desison on the cam has all ready been made and the air flow tests were to this cams specs.

Also remember this will be as you say, De Smogged
 
Picked the head up today:D

Here's a photo of the intake maiifold which has been ported to match the head, the hole at the top of th port is where the injector sits.




Well that's stage one just about complete just waiting on a few gaskets from Toyota Japan.

The flow graphs I chassed up today and should be with us shortly.

Gasket Part No for the 3F-E injection system and Thermostat housing genuine.

Manifold 17172-61060 Ex Japan only ordered 2
Air Surge 17176-61020 Only 11 left in Australia bought 2
Throtle body 22271-61020 Only 2 left in Australia bought both now Ex Japan only
Thermostat/head 16343-61020 Had no trouble getting this but think it will be the same on a 3F
Theromstat housing 16341-61030 Had No trouble getting this but think it will be the same as a 3F
Cold Stat injector 23293-61010 Ex Japan only ordered 2
Idle speed control valve 22278-61010 Ex Japan only ordered 2

Here in OZ the 3F-E only came in the very early 80 series 90-92 I think, as far as I can see the 62 series carried the 3F as we did not have the same emision restrictions. This however means that Toyota carry very few parts on the shelf for the 3F-E here, due to the short life span. Hence buying 2 of each gasket.

matt-

i had a long chat with FJ40Jim today about the ECM in a build like yours. i am building something similar and some tuning issues came up. are you planning on using the 3FE ECM? with the additional air and fuel moving through this setup, the ECM may not have enough adjustment ability to compensate for the need for more fuel. since the map also controls spark, you may not be able to get the proper spark curve to get maximum performance. sure, it could handle a mild build, but bumping the compression, more engine volume, better flow, AND a turbo, it seems like you might need a programmable system.

opinions?
 
Yep we will be running a new ECU as yet undecided on which and a custom loom too. No air flow meter just a M.A.P sensor from what I understand and a knock sensor as well as a few more, like I have said, this is all very new to me so learning as I go with Turbo, EFI, ECU but it's fun.

Currently looking at Motec and Wolf

MoTeC looks interesting. i am going to study that one. i like the ability to run sequential injection, although most of the research i have done says that it wont make much difference in a cruiser. i have been looking into megasquirt for a setup to run my system but i am always open to options. you find a price list anywhere? i just browsed the site and havent found anything...

Yep but hope your sitting down the MoTecs are not cheap

I think the wolf V500 is looking better value but still serching and reading I'll post up other I find of interest

Here is another, this one came recomended
