Remove the drive gear from the shaft, weld a socket adapter to spare shaft and then you can rotate only the oil pump to pump the oil pressure up. If i remember correctly it has to be rotated counter clockwise.
@@kaidojoema Thanx. And one more question: You put crank 86mm+con rods 156mm. Have you considered the combination: crank 86mm+con rods 158mm (Wiseco pistons are also on sale)? That might be interesting too. Thanks.T.
I absolutely LOVE these body style and years and I think over 400 horsepower is the most I've seen from a 230, lately I'm crazy for the white blocks 6 cylinders but thos one is the best flat hood I've seen in a while .. Great Job !!
@@jdcabauwnlHavent been to dyno yet, some small things have not yet been finished on the car. Have not had any stroker B230 before so we will see what it will do. Previous engines have done 600hp 800Nm the most.

@@Tommy-wh9yt Cylinder head specialist who has built and modifyed and flow benched these cylinder heads a lot told that the gain is so small that there is no point.
Why do you re torque the cylinder head 2 more times even before starting the engine? I have had two gaskets fail on me already, maybe I need to try this?
Because this engine is built with fire rings and they need to seat properly between cylinder head and block. Then i tighten in small torque steps to seat the rings and gasket properly. What type of cylinder head gasket you have and in what situation it fails?
@@kaidojoema ahh ok makes sense. I use the original Elring gasket. I have made 350 horsepower at the wheels, and makes it quite easily. But I have had the gasket fail a couple of times. Although I have had the engine really hot all those times, over 100C°…. I’m sure that wasn’t helping the problem.
@@remygardner9273 350whp should be no problem with stock composite headgasket if the tune is good. If the tune isnt so good and you overheat it then it will fail yes.

You can get over 1000hp from a red block if you pay enough
What modification did you do to the oil pump pick-up? It looks like it was cut and re-welded.
Cut and re-welded the pickup only because the oil sump is modified bigger and little bit lower.
Finally a guy that builds a redblock green but keeps the block red to be sure it won't break.
Insane build, but overkill imo. :p
Overkill is still not enough 😅
Nice video, really well done and cool to see what goes into a nicely built b230.

Jag håller på med ett liknande projekt. Men istället för turbo vill jag köra lite högre komp och sugis. Sikta på nånting kring 200-250hk med stroker.
