Dusty Landrum replied to the thread 2G torque solutions rear engine mount.I do remember having to make a trip to ACE hardware as they carry high grade bolts. Be sure to use a lock washer under the bolts too.-

So just did a compression test, 130, 130, 150, 150. Not really thrilled with those numbers. Guess it’s time for a leak down test.

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.I was wondering how long it would take for someone to point that out! I got the idea when I was using an aircraft tool at work that is very similar. I remember from the first restoration that the biggest issue was once the car was up on jack...

I dunno. I was expecting a rusted out shell on cinder blocks. I think it looks pretty good there.

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.Well, can’t say that I am not putting some work in. After this weekend I know it would be a while before I had a chance to touch the A87 again so went ahead and hammered out some tough work today. Need access to the entire frame to restore it...

I finally got over to disassemble the last remaining items.I couldn't work on the subframes or suspension pieces while the car was at paint, so that is what needs to be done before reassembly can happen.Untitled by bradydings, on FlickrI...

Like.Sorry no haha. I don't hand over any files. -
Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.I had planned on waiting until the build was MUCH further than it was for really large purchases but I couldn’t help snag this from a local dsm guy. It was on the build plan the entire time and now it’s a reality. So happy about it and it comes...

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.So I will start another post about this mystery head I got so we can all solve it but I kinda want to get back to the actual build. I have no intentions to even use the head but may keep it as a spare once we nail down exactly what the hell it...

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.Lol I know that. He asked if the cam side where the sensor mounts is threaded and I took a pic to show that no, it is not threaded. I also found there is no sensor mount on the gear side either.Or is there?

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.Ok so got a chance to look at the head a little more. Here is the cam side for the sensor and no there is not a way to mount a sensor on the cam gear side.

Dusty Landrum posted a reply to a question on the classified ad Free 2g Grey Dash and Interior Pieces.Oh good call man, I didn’t even notice that until you pointed it out. Listed has been changed to reflect that defect now. Thanks for letting me know!

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread 2G Name that sound (video).I am definitely no expert man, but to me it sounds like lifter tick. Just my opinion and it's not a super informed one lol.

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Wait was Worth It.Good eye dude. Was curious if anyone would spot it. It is a 99 Spyder GS-T that an older gentleman owns. He noticed my first GSX when I moved in and then of course now the second A87 and we were talking one day before he was about to start a bike...

Dusty Landrum replied to the thread Rust returned, what did I do wrong?.It can honestly vary. When I was looking around for places in Cali I would just call the shop and ask for a quote. Once I got one kind of in the middle I would then look up their work and reviews and go from there. The place I ended up going with...

Looks pretty clean, all in all. Taking on that scope of project (engine in the trunk) would be too much commitment for me, but as others have said, looking forward to following your progress posts.
