Just started to rebuild my engine from scratch and everything is going to be replaced thats needed. Had problems in the past with the head, i actually blew a hole between pots three and four! I want to make sure this engine is set up correct this time as i'm not sure if he felling was to blame for the damage. My engine is running carbs ( prima racing conversion) does anyone have the spec of the jets that are spposed to be used in them for the correct felling? also i have the ordinary standard t2 turbo with 360 bearing(R5) turbo fitted. running approx 13psi all the time. Any ideas why it blew? Anything i'm missing thats not right about the conversion? wrong turbo etc?

All ideas and comments appreciated, its was running arond 185bhp before i stripped it back
 
Hi - Presumably this is a GT Turbo?

You'd be better off posting in the Super 5 section of the forum - that's for all post 1984 Renault 5s...

Thanks,

Andrew
