    will this produce higher temps?

    I put in higher compression pistons, 9:1 rebuilt my turbo may have a slight leak at the oil pan. I'm going to replace the thermostat today and see if that helps, but would having the 9:1 pistons produce more heat? I'm about 220 F at the thermostat housing after 10-15 min of driving And...

    ISC/IAC motor shopping. (Merged)

    The ISC was making this stuttering sound that was very irregular, pulled it, and it was still making the sound, was gonna make a video so you all could tell me what you guys thought of it, but as soon as i started the video it died and stopped making any noise at all, doesn't move anymore, used...

    Where can i buy an isc from? found a few options but i'm wondering where other people get theirs from..Mine was making a funny clicking noise with the ignition on, so i pulled it off and tested it and in the middle of taking a video to put on here it completely stopped working..

    General tuning after a full rebuild.. ?

    I was talking more of getting your motor running at an optimal level for the break in, i would think you would want the motor purring when your breaking it in..I'm not worried about the break in process, i already have that planned.I did do a break in run, but when i was transbraking it...

    Ok.. so i've spent a good amount of time under my dash by the pedals and here's what im looking at..I used the Phoenix tool and ran 3 containers of brake fluid up through the clutch bleeder to the resevoir so there is no way i have air in the system.the pedal can be freely moved up and down...

    Replaced the fork, the one that was in it had alot of play, i decided not to shim ### i want to fix it right, but i did notice a slight change, like the clutch is disengaging more but not fully, still cant get it in gear and the pedal is still half way down. i have no more room for adjustment on...

    Hallman evolution boost controller WTF?

    Just got a used hallman evolution, but it doesn't have the machined adjustment knob, instead it has this POS plastic thing that doesnt even lock on the end of the cable, controller and cable look legit, but the guy says thats how it came when he bought it.

    Engine Paint Question

    They sell spray paint for engines, its called engine enamel. I was told when you paint your block black helps to diffuse heat from the block. I've never seen anyone paint the cylinder head, i think it would just make it hold more heat. As for all the other parts it should be fine.

    Clutch not disengaging, pedal only comes half way up...

    Clutch not disengaging, pedal only comes half way up...

    re-bled the clutch today, no change.Don't want to mess with the adjust ment settings ### i know they are where they should be because i haven't even touched anything on the haudralic system since the last time the clutch worked.My conclusion right now is that i have the wrong clutch fork...

    Clutch not disengaging, pedal only comes half way up...

    Clutch not disengaging, pedal only comes half way up...

    Just to check and make sure there was no air in the line from sitting, and trying to figure out if that was the problem with the clutch not disengaging.I put a new motor in the car, and havent changed any of the clutch setting on the car from when i used to drive it.
  45. samvdb89

    Clutch not disengaging, pedal only comes half way up...

    Bled correctly, and my clutch pedal will only move half way up after i push it down, i can pull it to even with the brake pedal but it wont return on its own. Thought about shimming the pivot ball but the clutch would still only return half way up.. the adjustment rod is out almost as far as it...
