Anjo's 340Turbo: EFI conversion

[volvodspec]

and in the car, i now need to order vibration dampers to mount the frame and after that i can definatly start plumbing it in..

[volvodspec]

made a small mistake; wrong thread made for the aquamist nippel


so try again.



on with the cold side IC pipe, with the HKS bov adapter welded on


complete


upper radiator pipe


quite a bit done the last few days




but still a lot to do

[volvodspec]

spend a day behind the lathe



was going to make the new crankshaft pulley out of a solid chunk of aluminium, unfortunatly that chunk didn't fit in the saw so i had to mill all the excess material off, the aluminium is ø160x105mm and the dimensions of the pulley are ø134x33mm


so i decided to make start with milling most of the excess material away, then change the cutter and machine everything up to specification






the rear machined to the correct dimensions

allmost done




before and after lol


testfit on a borrowed B14.1E, it comes out of a 343Black Beauty


next is modifying the pulley so it can be secured at TDC on the crank; then adjusting the triggerwheel so it secured to the pulley and finally making a bracket for the sensor, but first; i need to clean up the mess in the workshop haha

Pleasure to view this work, as ever.

Did it eat its original one?

[volvodspec]

yes it did (offcourse ) that seemed to die around 100xxxkm, then the replacement B14.1E (this one ) was blown up due to aged petrol.. that BB currently has a B14.4E in it

81166 miles on mine tonight, still no sign of putting a leg out of bed...

new bracket for the oil and intercooler, needed a bit of extra room




triggerwheel sensor bracket



setting up the base timing


securing the pulley and triggerwheel

Good work on the turbo mate. Give a call if you need help with the wiring or software setup.

[volvodspec]

changed the twin 10" electric fans for twin 12" fans,


modified the bracket for the oil cooler and intercooler, i'm thinking about using a different oilcooler but that'll happen later on


and the intercooler back in place



made a plate through the existing cutout of the firewall for the fuel hoses and battery cables


and made the cables


bended some stainless pipe for the heater


new coolant pipe for the turbo


heater coolant bits done


throttle body, injectors and fuel rail in place


made the fuel hoses, connected the brake booster and made a new throttle cable


replaced the radiator for one of a volvo 360, slightly more ideal upper hose connection; i do have to redo the stainless pipe i made earlier but who cares

[Frits]

Nonde! Lekker bezig!

[volvodspec]

new upper radiator pipe





then wiring, it's all there to get the car running again, i will be redoing everything once i start on the new dashboard, ECU and fusebox will move to the interior

[volvodspec]

been a while

engine is ready for first start


fuel delivery and electrics isn't
battery tray







aluminium fuelsystem parts back from powdercoating, same textured paint as is on the other aluminium interior panels





now when i can find some more time it's on with the exhaust and a bit of wiring and see if it will run

Your build thread is proper weld porn. You're always very precise with everything too, I appreciate that

[volvodspec]

just noticed that this needs a tiny update! first off, lets start with the very first startup:

didn't go exactly as planned as initially i had no spark, turned out i misplaced a earthing pin in the wiring loom; took me a while to find out.

then, with the engine warmed up and a few minor idling adjustments

no hickups except for a small issure. there are 2 AFR sensors in the downpipe, one for the AEM gauge, the other for the EFI management, the one for the EFI management says it's running lean the one for the AEM gauge says it's running really rich.. haven't found time to find out what the problem is, when that's all good it's time for a setup on the dyno.

then as i walked out of my garage i tripped over a B230 engine that was sitting next to the volvo and realised that it would probably be a better idea to get on with that engine, clear up the mess inside the garage and then crack on with the 340. so, only a few weeks later this happened



this is mid october, engine allready in the 343


currently working on the exhaust(stainless), fuelling and a small bit of wiring; then its time to fire it up
