Looks like both timing marks are in the valley of the gears, are the dowels both pointing up? One of the timing marks should be aligned with a tooth on the gear on one side. After looking at other 420a motors look like that how their timing marks are?

Ice Race 01-07-2012 (night races) on Vimeo Heres a clip of me in my Laser, taken by Amanda Moore AKA Shaggie's wife from a few years back.

Input shaft bearing? the throw out bearing usualy will make noise when clutch is pushed in but a bad input shaft bearing will chatter with clutch engaged but go away when you push in the clutch. Someone correct me if im wrong. It just strange that it happened on both trans.

Nope just the fuel to get there.

Glade you were able to make it out. Sorry i didnt have time between the heats to come meet you. I looked for you after the races but you were gone. If you have a dot approved helmet bring it and come do some ride alongs with me. Usually my sons with me but he was sick that weekend. This weekend...

Good to see you out there! Once you experiance it it gives living in Alaska a whole new presective.lol Good luck when you decide to race, hopefully next event?

Wow thats crazy! What exactly happened? I f you find a shell and need a hand swaping LMK ill help out if you need it.

Its deffinetly worth checking out. If you have a helmet bring it along:thumb: Im more that willing ot offer ride alongs and so are some of the other guys.

Yeah that would be one heck of a journey. Non the less get out there and get involved locally. The amount of fun you will have out there beats racing on the streets any day. I was on the fence about getting out there but now regret not pursuing it before. Awesome times with some great people...

Hey this is for any of you that have ever thought about getting out there and racing. I encourage you to come out and give it a try. Yesterday was my first event and it was a blast!! For the most part its just show and go. I raced the rubber to ice class (no studs) on all season tires. Most...

One thing i learned when using that tool is to use a little oil on the valve stems and keepers to help them to fall into place. Made a big difference for me.

If you still need some studs i got some steel studded tires on some Old school 15"Riken wheels i'll let go for $250.

Man that sucks, Hopefully the damage isnt that bad. Probably need valves at the least. I would take the head to ADB while you have it off and have them look it over. While your replacing the timing belt id replace all the timing components also. If you go with OEM part that almost $500 right...

I'm looking to see if anyone that still has an OEM O2 senor in there car can measure the length of the it. I need to know the overall height of the senor when its mounted. I'm having fitment issues with Punishment Racing (CXracing) O2 eliminator down pipe. The Down pipe puts my o2 sensor right...

They were probably cruising back from Friday test&tune @ ARP.

What i did to break my main line loose was to put your two wrenches on the line then i put a piece of wood under one wrech then light taped the other one a few times with a hammer and it broke free no problem.

I traced out the one i have on my car for a template just in case anyone needed one. I also have have some Plexiglas that you can make it out of. Ill pm you my number.

I'll come at 9:00 and hang out a little longer.

I will be there at 8:30ish, and stay at least an hour or so.See who ever shows up.

I don't really care. Honestly day light would be better but i have stuff to do tomorrow so that would be a no go. Someone name a time and if a least one other say they'll go, I'll be there. Other wise you guys can do your thing in town and i sure ill see you around some other time.Oh and...

So who up for Mirror Lake? I dont have an IM so Anchorage is out for me.

Yeah its been on the road for awhile now. It needs its things but i drive it daily. I hope to rebuild the head in the next few months though. Looking to see 24-25 psi this spring. Happy @ 18psi for now.

So it's not like your gonna be driving 130+ in Taco Bells parking lot.LOL

Ill come out if you guys wanna meet up on the the Glen. I'm not trying to drive in Anchorage if i dont have to. Id be up for meeting like at Mirror Lake.

Here you go.[/I][/I]http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/353297-free-dsm-manual-everybody-enjoy.html

Well then you and your buddy's need to get this kid alone. And set him strait. I'm not gonna say what to do or not to do to him. But i will say make sure theres no proof. You know his word against yours, So the cops wont get involved. :D Did you tell the kids mom the cops wont get involved, If...

IMO, if you don't call the cops, you shouldn't even post further on this topic!! The kid needs to be turned in so he don't think he can getaway with this crap. Good thing your buddy got his stuff back, and hope fully not at your expense. Even if the kids mom punishes him hell probably still be...

Have you checked your ignition timing? I was knocking @ anything above stock boost levels until i checked my timing, it was a 15* btdc. I set it to 5* btdc and now i no longer have any knock @ 20 psi.

These type scams only work off greed! They play on the greed that us Americans are so consumed by. That's why they offer more then the item is worth and that why most people want to believe its real. JMOIf you want to mess with the guy. Get an empty box and take a crap in to it. Then ship it...

I guess if you have the right to ask $3500 for your $1500 non turbo, the shop owner has the right to ask $204 for a $44 muffler. After all maybe hes as proud of his mufflers as you are of your car.ROFL Did you get this work done cause of what happened? You know the girl saying it sounded like...

Look at the order that the wires are on the other side of the harness and most likely the ones inside your SAFC are in the same order. Follow that as a guide line. Read this. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/315702-need-someone-safc-camera-screwdriver.html

The 1gS pipe should work just fine, tight fit but it will work. You just have to angle it towards the front alittle. Mine fit with a 1G K&N filter and the adaptor plate for the 2G mas.

Just installed my Punishment FMIC, I used a sawzall to cut my bumper.

Man proof read your post and you'll get a lot more help!!!

A little more info might help. How long did you let it run? Long enough to burn off any residual oil in the exhaust runners? What color it the smoke? You said you put in new rings on the bottom end so are you sure you head gasket was done right. What type HG did you use cause a MLS with out...

Well i want to change the valve stem seals without pulling the head off. To tkelly, how much psi were you shooting in the cylinders? I don't mind use the rope in the cylinders to hold the valves, but it just seem like it would be a whole lot quicker to pressurize the cylinder,change the seals...

Has anyone ever used this spring compressor on there car or see any reasons why it wouldn't work on our cars? I know about the ones you can make on VFAQ and the Miller one. Just curious if this one would work or not?One Man Operation Valve Spring Compressor Tool Set 1238:eBay Motors (item...

PM'ed OP.

Correct me if im wrong but im sure his tps is correct @ around 10% as he has a 1g, I believe that on 2G it should read 0%? I know on my logger i get 10% @ idle.

Let me know if you want more junk cause ill list some crap on EBAY for you to spend your money on if you would like me to.:D

I was browsing the Mustang forums looking for info on a Twin Turbo set up for my 5.0 and a saw this. I figured i would share it with my fellow DSM'ers. Gale Cengage Product Failure

The obvious source would be your battery. Just run a wire with a in line fuse, or you could tap in to your radio. Either should work.

After where this thread went before i had to bring some humor here LOL. I know this is old and most have probably seen it but is still funny as hell.YouTube - MADtv - Tank at a Night Club (Bobby Lee)

Not to knock you but then were dose the non turbos DSM's come into play?
