    1G Weep hole keeps leaking 3rd water pump

    I skimmed and it was touched on already I'm sure, but I'm rushing. So sorry if it's a repeat but did you backflush the cooling system? Flush heater core and engine/rad seperate. If you don't do this prior to new pump install it actually voids the warranty. Left over sediment will kill shaft...

    I got a new in box EVO3 input shaft/1st gear on the way, that's the hardest part I think. I really should go dogbox because I don't want to needlessly destroy an Evo3 setup. But then again, I wanna drive the car this summer too tho. I do virtually no drag launches in this car. It's street...

    2G Gear Faceplating

    Do you think there's really any real benefit to the REM treatment? Isn't that just an acid process to polish the component on like a melecular level? I used to think REM was like nanopeening or WPC but I read a little bit about it and was surprised. Seems like it's just a treatment to polish the...

    Decided to try to polish/buff my Magnus manifold to a mirror-like finish. I've I sanded and polished a coil plate once, that's about it. So we will see how it goes.I am going to use an angle grinder and rolac abrasive disks to knock down the first layer. Then I'm going to switch to my cordless...

    Reaching out to TRE

    Awesome guy, the best work, and my go to over any other DSM transmission builder, but yea I think he's overbooked right now. I had a trans built a few months ago and I know after the covid thing started he had to let some staff go. I think it's him and only one other person there currently.

    2G build for some1 (I build it, they own it)

    Redid the fuel system with a full blown dual pump hanger. -8 feed and -6 return braided fuel lines with PTFE/teflon so e85 won't be an issue. Magnus billet fuel rail, fuel lab regulator I installed just a single Hellcat 535LPH (not 525LPH) pump. The 535LPH pump keeps flow up much better than the...

    2G build for some1 (I build it, they own it)

    There was a used JM fab coil plate in the cargo area of the car when it came. Unfortunately whoever messed with it had it wired incorrectly and had lock washers jammed in it. Apparently they don't know how to use washers and don't know that common practice would be to use them on the side with...

    Ordered SBC Stage 2 DD clutch kit, got Exedy clutch?

    The card that comes with the south end kit is literally for clutch disk replacement and warranty and it is direct from Exedy. The bright red pressure plate I'm not sure of.

    Ordered SBC Stage 2 DD clutch kit, got Exedy clutch?

    You push the clutch in, shift to neutral, let the clutch out. Use the brakes to come to a stop. Not sure if you have the definitely of lugging correct. Lugging would be high load at low engine RPM. I don't think the transmission or clutch really cares if you lug them. Lugging is very hard on the...

    2G How I did a friend's Full-blown dual pump hanger

    Just some quick flicks of how I did a single hellcat pump for a friend's 2g. Somewhat down and dirty but it turned out ok. I've seen people use t-taps on these to run them and it blew my mind. I used GM weatherpacks and used a relay with large AWG wire right off the battery. Used the old pump B+...

    420A 95 NT died under WOT and now won't start, how to diagnose and locations

    @luv2rallyedidn't look that close, but I thought the ASD relay (which is a proprietary Chrysler thing) only supplies power to the injectors and ignition coils? Not power train control module.

    420A 95 NT died under WOT and now won't start, how to diagnose and locations

    I'd check that 30a fuse, the Auto shutdown relay, and the fuel pump relay. Or like I said thump on that fuel tank for a quick check LOL.

    420A 95 NT died under WOT and now won't start, how to diagnose and locations

    Service info states the fuel pump repay is left side of the firewall. No fuses inline that wouldn't affect other things you'd notice either.
