I just learned about the nobles the other day while reading jageds recent spun bearing thread so I dont know much about them. I have been gathering info on several different forums about the noble motors and im just wondering why no one has used a noble motor seeing that you can get them for 4.5k and they have been proven to hold close to 1000hp with no problems.
I am working on getting a turbo kit from NPG right now which im sure is going to lead to some kind of forged internals in the future. The noble motor seems like a logical choice, but I would like other opinions on that.
I read something about needing an ecu that will run oil squirters, but I know csvt#49 just had them installed and hasn't mentioned anything about that.
Here are pics of how the noble motors come from AER.
In this pic it looks like the oil pan is tapped twice for the twin turbo setup that the nobles run. I am going to try and find out which oil pan comes on these motors if it is upgraded in any way.
In this pic I am going to try and find out if that flywheel will work with our mtx75, and how much it weighs. The coolants lines should all be the same as well.
In this pic it looks like the timing cover won't cause any problems for us and it also has a DMD crank pulley installed. Also looks like it comes with an svt style oil cooler, but I read somewhere about the oil coolers not working good enough for the nobles. It would also be interesting to see what kind of PCV system this motor has and if the oil cap on that valve cover would clear our hoods as well as that long dip stick.
Anyways I am not close to buying this motor right now but I just wanted to make a thread for discussions about the noble motors and what it would take to install them into our cars. Im guessing someone just needs to tackle the project to answer most of these questions.
