  1. What I got done on my motor tonight with pics

    Uhh ....... I am sure that crank scraper will help keep a little more oil in the pan ..... but. It appears from the pictures that it is going to have to much clearance from the crank It will deffinetly keep oil from coming back up very easy .... but should the tolerances there be closer ?
  2. Question about shaft play on a evo 3 16g

    I had the same concern . My has been spinning fine with no problems.http://www.dsmtuner.com/forums/showthread.php?t=143890&highlight=16g+shaft+play
  3. installed aeromotive afpr, ss fuel lines, walbro 255lph hp, safc...rich?

    Turn your fuel pressure back up and get a better fpr . Turn down the safc until your fuel trim starts to stay a around a 100. Are you sure the afpr isnt hooked up backwards?
  4. Dry sump oiling system

    FIrst off let me start by saying I have never once said this will not work . So I am thinking that I will have to develope it and make it work just to throw it in your face . Iam very busy though so I will take time off from work to show how it has to be .All we need is ONE person to...
  5. Dry sump oiling system

    I think that is the clearest, most precise post you have made showing the actual design plan.At 7000 + rpm you are asking alot of the power steering pump. I understand that you want to draw all the oil and crankcase gasses and seperate them , Out of one pickup?I dont want to beat this...
  6. Dry sump oiling system

    Honestly it has been a year since this was started , and it has not even been tested. I am all for fabbing somthing up . But if it is well thought out , it can be executed .I would like to see this continue , I dont know where you got the idea that I said it wouldnt work?You obviously...
  7. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    I just wanted to add that my fuel filter was another peice of ths puzzle . It would allow the fuel pressure to climb and then because I would see it get to where it needed to be I would go back to driving . It was a restriction only at the top of 3rd and up. I replaced that and now I have a...
  8. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    I have a stage 3 dsm chip and have the maft at the stock settings and let the chip do the rest . I have the Safc to fine tune with and the palm pilot datalogger . Get rid of the garbage fuel pressure solenoid , I dont think it was ever designed to handle overboost from stock or it is just a...
  9. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    Thanks to everyone that helped out and gave there opinion . It turned out my fuel pressure solenoid was not allowing the boost to get through like it should . My advice is bypass that thing . Now I can run 18 psi and will get a little knock in forth gear running it at wot or close to it . I...
  10. Oil pump modifications.

    I have a suspicion that it is just equipped with a stiffer bypass spring and maybe smoothed casting.
  11. Question about MSD DIS2 ignition

    Well If I where you I would keep it and install it . Just read up before you do the install . You are going to need a msd tach adapter. Oh , many people will say that the stock ignition is fine but if you go to www.Taboospeedshop.com They will tell you it is good to around 300hp . Msd :thumb:
  12. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    Well here is an update . I bypassed that good for nothing fuel pressure solenoid , the dumb one on the fire wall . It was an improvement and it brought my knock at 12 psi to nothing, yes nothing . I was so happy I turned up the boost and since I have a mbc I didnt know what I turned it up to...
  13. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    I have a stage 3 dsm chip setup for my 680 and with my maft set to stock ma safc Is almost zeroed out . I have a cold air intake also so no hot engine air . My fuel trims are right at 100 for high, medium and low . I have logged a couple days ago (batteries came out of my palm pilot ) so I cant...
  14. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    Iam going to go after water injection . It is obvious to me that some of the people here are oblivious to the truth :thumbdown
  15. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    Man you have got to be kidding me . In your profile you are running a 12.3 with a 50 trim ,not a bad time . But what would you run on pump gas 91 octane with your boost level ? Blown headgasket would be on the way :thumbdownstage2eclipse , I hear you man and I am having to decide where to...
  16. what do you guys think of this set-up?

    Man check his feedback . One of them is from a person who bought this same kit and it did not fit on his car . Just a word of advice. Slowboy backs there products :thumb:
  17. max boost on 91 octane ? 14 psi ?

    Here it is . I am at the point where I can run only 14 psi without inducing all sorts of problems . I am also saying that anyone that is running 20 psi on pump gas 91 octane is full of it . I have all the supporting mods . If I richen settings up with safc or maft to get rid of knock, then I...
  18. 2g w/6bolt AFC tunin w/rm

    18-20 psi with stock injectors ? Are you trying to blow up your motor? You sure are getting bad fuel cut . I cant run that with all my mods and my fuel pressure at 50 psi . You also live in California where I would say that you are running on 91 octane . Turn down the boost or sell your car...
  19. Look at my Cylinder Wall

    Put it back together with new valve seals and thrash . This is common wear with 25 psi of boost and forged internals . This is why you have forged pistons, to deal with the stress of 25 psi. :thumb:
  20. Look at my Cylinder Wall

    That is just some piston scuffing . If you look close you can see that in the cylinder (left side) there is another dark spot . Then You look at the piston pic and you can see the same polished look on the pistons in the same area as the scuffs . The piston hass propably been hammered on and...
  21. Engine rebuilt will not run properly

    I certainly hope there are no rags stuffed into the head or intake manifold.
  22. Msd Dis II H.O. ?

    This is true however the DIS4 can charge the coils independantly (though at the same time) and even though it's waste spark, your not sharing one coil to spark two plugs so the spark will be stronger, though still wastespark.Honestly thats overkill, but if you have the parts for it, go for...
  23. Msd Dis II H.O. ?

    I have the dis 4 and I am wondering how you where able to set it up with independant coils . DId you find a way to get rid of the waste spark or are you running two coils in parallel ?
  24. maat's idea reborn (sequential turbo)

    Awesome idea . I will have to learn more about the clutch wire and voltages there and then apply it . I like the idea I see a little problem with that though with the turbo running and causing it to run lean or rich .
  25. maat's idea reborn (sequential turbo)

    Exactly what I am talking about :thumb: I installed my msd yesterday and to all those that say they didnt notice anything . WOW, how couldnt you ?My parts guy will be in monday and I will see if he has located me a 12 volt solenoid that will handle 300psi . I dont see the volume of air...
  26. maat's idea reborn (sequential turbo)

    I am presentlly working on another idea . Beware some of you turn back now or you will have to read my crazy post .Here it goes. I looked into all the threads talking about using compressed air to spool up a turbo . I dont want to go and get my scuba tank filled every week . I also dont like...
  27. Good Idea to port/polish a head your self?

    Iam getting ready to port my extra head. Iam looking for a junker to cut up into pieces so that I can check all the water jacket and oil jacket thicknesses. Any one pm me and we can discuss cost. I finally looked back at this post and I am glad to see that 92tsifwd got it going. :thumb:
  28. Creating a monster....

    I went with 680's and had a stage 3 chip burned by Jeff . The 680's turned out to flow more like 620. Go with the biggest injector the safc can control . I wouldnt get anything higher than 800 cc though . You will be happy you went with bigger when you are running 15 lbs and the injector isnt...

  30. maat's idea reborn (sequential turbo)

    I like the idea of a faster spooling turbo setup running a rediculous amount of cfm Iam all for it but there is alot of problems there . Why not just extend the intake turbo impellar shaft . Just run it out 6 more inches and have a dc brushless motor with a grabbing clutch on the end of the...
  31. Exhaust Valves to consider

    Just for curiosity what material where you using for valve seats on these motocross bikes ?Also how much area was making contact with the valve seat ? What about maximum revs ? Do motocross bikes have notoriously high exhaust temps ? I personally have seen titanium valves come out of a...
  32. Exhaust Valves to consider

    Titanium is ,according to one study, the ninth most abundant metal in the earths crust . I have also heard that it is the second so who is to know . The cost comes from manufacturing .
  33. HKS cams installed, bad vibration of the engine

    Check your cam timing again to make sure that it is right on . Check the vfaq on how to do it . And yes the Safc will need to be adjusted again and also your fuel trims are remapping which will lead to what you saying is happening .

  36. 2.0 Shortblock is tight!!!!

    It should not be tight . You should be able to turn it over freely with a 1/2 inch drive no problem just like rcarrier said. You must have a con bearing or crank bearing binding . You can pull the caps one by one on the mains till you find out which one is binding then if is not them you go to...

  40. Exhaust Valves to consider

    Really good question :thumb:I would like to know what the input is on this one . I decided to go with titanium . Stainless while heavy, can take serious abuse .
  41. knock when rich?

    Time for a front mount ic . Knock is hard to get rid of, on 91 octane. I am only able to currently run 15 psi and have to run very rich to keep it from knocking . With no cold air intake and no fmic you are pushing the limit of what your motor can do . I would recomend getting a way to turn...
  42. New Turbo installed, but bad news

    Do a compression test . I dont care who was in the car with you . Running on street gas at 18 psi can blow a headgasket no doubt but you are going to hear it after the initial pop . . Do a compression test ? Do you have any symptoms ? Water in the oil ? With cold startup and engine running do...

    Have you considered a low pressure low volume pump with inline filter for the tranny ? You would just put a fitting where the drain plug is and one where the fill is .
