    Converter threads are gone, options?

    Ok thanks for the info. Why am I having such a hard time with these? I have 2 flexplates stacked and have used oem bolts and longer high grade bolts cut as long as possible without bottoming out too.Thanks sir,Josh

    Converter threads are gone, options?

    I took my xfer case off, and I can heli coil them if I can move my flex plates out of the way. Will the flex plates move if I crank on the motor and there's no bolts in the converter?

    Converter threads are gone, options?

    I've had this problem 3 times in the last few weeks. I go WOT and then all of the sudden I hear a lot of "clack clack clack" under the hood. It's always my converter bolts coming loose. Before I checked the threads on both the bolts and the converter to make sure theyre both clean, and use red...

    Thanks guys. I installed this last night, everything went smooth.

    Jmf intake threads stripped, what to do?

    Ok thanks guys. How does the helicoil stop from just going all the way through the bolt hole and falling out the other side? Should I not drill out the hole all the way so it has something to butt up against?Thanks

    Jmf intake threads stripped, what to do?

    So I stripped some of the threads on my intake mani where I bolt up my throttle body... Can I use a heli-coil there even though it's straight through unlike a broken exhaust manifold stud where it has something to bottom out on? Would this be ok?any other options?Thanks,Josh

    500hp factory fuel lines

    500 is near the limit I've seen usually on stock lines with a different line from the filter to rail. People have ran fast and made good power on e85 and a stock filter.I just installed my in line Wally today and I'd be betting to say that the circle the fuel line does below the filter is a...

    optimum motor combo

    If you port the 2g go with that. If you're not going to port them I'd go with a 1g because of the bigger runners and also a bigger tb can bolt-on (if you have a 1g IM and tb)

    What to do with my stroker

    You put a lot of money into that motor for just 12's.16g can get you there no problems whatsoever.

    optimum motor combo

    Weird, cause I have a 1g head on my 7 bolt, and everything works great. Yes you need to use the sensors that come in your car, but they will all work in a 1g head no problem, and that should be no reason to stay with a 2g head.
  18. 420a-t

    optimum motor combo

    What sensors are different on a 2g that won't bolt up?2g head will be easier for intake mani/throttle body since you already have both of those

    Finally Switched Back to E85 -FP Green

    Low end until it knocks. It will help spool-time.Also, have you tried to up the boost anymore?What I see most peoples setups are mid-teens timing, lots of boost, and around 12:1 afr. This is usually on a little bigger turbo though if that helps at all.

    1g head and 2g head?

    You can put a 1g head on a 2g without any other modification, although I would advise to get a different IM.And the headstuts are totally dependant on which block is being used. You also don't have to bore out the headstud holes to do it like someone previously stated.

    Need help with BSE

    I finally figured it out for anyone who runs into this later.I found that my sandich adapter and/or 1g oil cooler was causing my low oil pressure. I decided to take it off and see what happens, and boom, 80psi at startup (which has never happened before).The question is why did it do...

    Need help with BSE

    I thought I got the center bearing in all the way on my bse kit, but I took the pan off again, and it's still not centered. Do I have to take my front case off to get to the bearing, or can I just take my pan off, like I have right now, and be able to kick it in a little more? Any info on how to...

    4G63T horsepower max?

    Somewhere in the 28psi range? On what? Did you just make that number up?Not true about replacing every stock fuel and air part on the car either. Don't just start saying "replace this and that" before you really know what he needs.I've seen many 4g's right at the 500whp level with stock...

    boost leak from brake booster?

    Yes. Look at usplastics.com first. They have all check valves for really cheap.

    boost leak from brake booster?

    It's built inthe actual hose that goes to the brake booster. You can test it by spraying air in one side of it and them the other and see which way it will let air through to make sure you didn't put it on backwards.

    I just drove it again, and found my previous oil leak was coming from the valve cover, which is awesome (that it was easy). I'm still having problems with my oil pressure however...I now get 10-12psi at idle (1k), and then it will climb when I rev it, but then, after about 3k, the pressure...

    Thanks for the responses.alright, fixed the BSE bearing. I took it for a drive tonight just to see what's going on after putting in 10w-40 oil in it to see if those two would solve my problem. They didn't.Oil pressure at idle is between 10-12psi at 1000rpms. At 2000rpms, pressure is...

    Need help with BSE

    This is my front bearing, with the new one pressed in. Does it look alright, or should it be more centered? Does it matter that it's off a little bit? I'm looking to put this back together and hopefully have it on the road ASAP.Thanks guys,Josh

    eagle rods and wiseco piston setup

    I know what you were saying, I just didn't want him to think his bottom end was going to be the weak link in any way on that setup. If they're rated at 1000, and the standard wisecos have made a ton of hp as well, just wanted to make it clear

    eagle rods and wiseco piston setup

    People gave made gobs more hp on eagle/scat rods. It all depends on the tune and machine work.
