Thread: 200 I6 build pics on the way

Tweet

I just bought a digital camera I won't be afraid to take into the autoshop, it's 1 of those cheapie $20 Vivitar camera's from Walmart, for being .3 Megapixle and using a CMOS sensor, it takes good pics at 640X480, pictures are compleatly clear, which is supprising, deffinetly good enough to document the build. so come monday, I will have pictures of the start of the build, a bare block and head. I'm also going to put the pics on my website.

here is the flange for the turbo outlet. this is 2" exhaust pipe with the slip over flare on it, pressed into a 2" 3 bolt exhaust flange, which I then welded for security with a 110 arc welder using 60/13 rod. then I sanded the bottom down with a belt sander until it was leval. the pic is a little blurry because I actully had to extract a pic from a movie ( hooked it to the computer and started capturing ), had some diffaculty with the camera in taking pics without the flash ( cant figure out how to turn it off ) and as with all digi cams my faimily has had that utalized CMOS sensors, too much light will cause the picture to go white, and that was happening to me.

oh yeah, I have to drill 1 hole into a slot so I can fit it to the bolt pattern of the turbo, it's slightly off.

here's the pics. the camera sucks, I held the camera still and lighting was great, yet there still slightly blurry, might be the fact the lighting is artificial but, the camera dosn't work right anyway. I can Get a 2.1 MP camera with a LCD screen and a CCD sensor ( what all " Real " digital camera's use ) for $40, so I'm taking the POS back and getting 1 of those.
