Dont replace stock gasket, unless u want to open the motor. Stock gasket can handle a good amount of boost before it will blow.

Thanks bk :200sx_200sx: going to buy a piece of billet alumiuim about 45cm in diameter and 30mm thick and put it on the lathe and make somthing almost the same, tell me bk can i route the drain pipe into the oil return with a t-piece? or is it beter on its own?
Better on its own bud. I changed this setup due to the turbo drain going all the way to the front drain hole you see ahead of the mounting. My head drain now goes there and the current pic setup is now used for the turbo drain.
As per the Nocsa posts, I dont know if its drain back or more breathing that helps cure the oil spew problem here, all I know is it worked for me.
I had 4 liters spew out the breathers once with my old RB motor..not good.

Dont fit it like that, its easy enough to make gearbox mountings to move gearbox back 😉

Small update!!! :domo:

Rough finishing product mountings need to be neatened up and sending away for epoxy coating.

Gearbox mountings done and moved it one hole back in order to bring the motor back a lil.

Head had to come off due to motor boosting water, bought the motor like this so hoping no damage to block or head.

Looks like i found the problem, the hole deck of the block is smooth except for the area surrounding piston number 6, what you guy's think?

That block needs a skim, and the piston has also suffered a bit too much heat, you may run into issues with it so replace it while it's out.

Agree. The piston is rocking and touching the head by the look of things..check for corresponding witness marks on the edge of the combustion chamber in the head.
If it is touching, its a possibility that it may have hurt the big end as well. Maybe not. I have had it where the piston will rock on the gudgeon pin and the bearing will be good.
If its already touching you may have to deck the piston tops as well to clear ..
Id also check piston to bore clearances while its undone..
