so after getting my head milled im trying to figure out how much compression ive gained if any7 bolt head ported/polished and milled .015
block resurfaced .003 material removedthis gives me a total of .018 total removed heightim running evo 8 rods and pistons which with a stock dsm...
well guys got my head off today and ive got some serious wear in 2 of the cylinders so heres the new plan since it will cost the same and I scored a set of scat rods brand new for 130 bucks.. I can get a good 97 Galant 4g64 bottom end, so since I can still use all the parts I got already i...
so ive decided that while im in this thing im gonna do the bottom end to i got a line on some parts for short money heres the additions to the list11k mile evo 8 rods and pistons
arp rod bolts
arp main studs
new oil jets
evo 8 Hastings piston ringsi understand that with these...
Wow I really wish I had the money for a stage 1 head just really need to get it back on the road I'm gonna have them pull vacuum on the head and if the valves are all sealing I'm gonna leave it alone just have it cleaned and checked for straightness. For some Evo 8 springs and followers today...
oh and by the way I did the same swap as you, fwd auto to awd 5 speed and I cant make my gas gause work right for the life of me it reads like half way to a quarter and I ran out at a quarter tank the other week lol an tips I wired it exactly like the vfaq
reason for the bsek is because I have to take the timing belt off anyways, and my oil pan is seeping so im dropping that too so mind as well just pull the pump off and remove the shafts. I plan to have the head sent to the machine shop and have .005 cut off it just to make sure its perfectly...
sooo I lifted my head today and am now pushing water and have a rough idle. soo I made a few purchases heres what I bough so far-OEM intake gasket
-OEM Exhaust manifold gasket
-Felpro Valve Cover gaskets
-Super Viton valve seals
-STM BSE kit
-felpro oil pump gasket
-Felpro Composite...
let me start by saying i have searched and searched but cant find my exact issuei have a 95 gsx that im trying to install a 1g cas in.the 1g cas im using is out of a 1990 so it has the pigtail coming out of it no plug on topcar is running a 1999 GSX ecu with the 95 harness and COP...
it wont open and you will probably get alot of compressor surge get some super glue and glue the nipple back on it will last the time you need till you swap it for the 1g
Whats the fix install a 1g cas? If so what 1as of now the misfire is gone i swapped power transistors today and if fixed it i think good thing i keep spare parts lol
hey guys let me start with a little background. car is a 1995 model with the cam sensor behind the intake gear. I am also running a 1999 Black box ecu. last month i had a coil fail which melted the power transistor which melted the ecu. so i replaced one of the coil packs, put in a used...
ok well i already have a DNP exhaust manifold so i dont really need the fp cast so all i really need to do is sell my o2 dump and get the o2 hosuing with the wastegate provision or modify mine to use an external gate (cheaper and probably what i will do) already have the 7 bolt head and 7 bolt...
you guys are awesome thanks for the input. i can get my hands on an hx40 with 12cm hotside for pretty cheap so i may go that way with the turbo (i can probably trade the 20g and get cash) also im thinking kelford 272's. as far as the clutch i said act 2600 opnly because i just bought one for the...
so got my 20g on my car and its going good but I want some more power down low plus this motors got some miles on it so I want to try something a bit different. heres what im thinking-99 Spyder 2.4 block w/ split thrust bearing
-Weisco 86.5mm 4g63 head 9.0.1 pistons
-Eagle H beam rods w...
im about 25 minutes south of uti norwood i know its a trip for you but we have car meets every monday night as well as other weekly meets. dynotech tuning is down this way also they have a dyno day coming up PM me if you wanna meet up one day i have a shop also
set you motor up on TDC with all your timing marks lined up look at the CAS it has a notch on the cam drive blade it lines up with the mark on the housing that puts it on top dead.
so your telling me you've never had an intercooler coupler fail or any wiring issue in your 20+ year old wiring harness even with quality parts when you buy one of these cars and begin rehabbing it parts fail id rather have my tools with me then pay 75 to get it towed home because I cant put my...
only 4 things that are gonna cause no spark on 1 and 4-bad coil pack
-bad power transistor
-bad ecu
-bad wiringwhat i would do is go to the local pick a part and grab a power transistor and try it out they are 100 bucks new at autozone a coil is 87 new at autozone.. if the transistor...
that would be one hell of an acomplishment to put down 300+ whp from a 420a motor id love to see the dyno chart on that one. if you want power id go turbo or sell it and get a GST or GSX.
sooo after having a few situations with my wonderful car ive decided to create a travel bag of sorts with the tools ive found are neccasary to carry with you whenever you feel like you want to drive your car and i figured id share it with you as well as practical uses for each toolPhillips +...
So I've got a 99 black box ECU in my 95, car runs fine up till around 5500-7k where I get popping and misfiring.I'm wondering if I need to switch plug wires and injector wires since my car is a 95 with the crank sensor on the back of the intake cam? If so which plug wires and what injector...
meth injection isnt totally out of the picture, i figured 850's would be ideal but i could always go bigger its more of what pops up in the classifides. i kinda figured stock lines would be fine saves me money i can put elsewhere i suppose and as far as power expectations id be happy anywhere...
ya i might go that route with the intercooler soon im just using it because it came with the car but it really drops IAT alot pretty close to ambient but your right obviously newer technology is better. ill probably pick up the 255 soon also. oh and the closest e85 spot is 20 minutes away and...
Im starting to really get into heavily modifying my car with the hopes of 400 AWHP on pump gas. Im getting an MHI 16g and am going to have it converted to a td05 20g which from what im reading can flow about 44 lb/m of air which should be sufficient for about 400 wheel hp. im gonna start off...
the later blocks have the wrong bellhousing patterns i think but not totally sure my motor im building is a 97 galant 2.4 and it has the correct bell and mount flanges.
soo just completed my fwd auto gst ti awd 5 speed swap car cranks but wont start
also converted ot to a 99 spyder black box ecu and did fuel pump rewire. motor is getting fuel but i havnt checked for spark yet. ecm was reflashed already so its got the right rom in it. fuel pump kicks on and i...
so today i was given a perfectly working small h1C off of a friends 1st gen dodge ram cummins, i took it apart cleaned it and promptly put it on the shelf and began looking up parts haha. but heres my main concern im looking to get about 450 wheel in the future and thats all im ever gonna want...
If its going to happen its going to happen the clutch wont make a difference. people blame all their 7 bolt issues on crankwalk when in reality any motor can walk even 6 bolts and Auto's so id put whatever clutch you want in there it wont be an issue.
So i have an internally gated 12cm holset hx35 and an open t3 manifold sitting around but before i have a downpipe and oil lines made how terrible will spool up be on the street with a stock 7 bolt long block be? i have all supporting mods. 750cc injectors, walbro 190,greddy 24v front mount...
the heated color on the rod SHOULD be fine ive seen alot of OE rods with odd coloring inside the big end. id run with it let us know how you make out if you want throw some pics up of the journal and rod in question.
When you had the rod cap off and yoi were looking at the crank were there any visible lines or discoloration on the journal? If so you have high and low spots and it will probably spin again within an hour of when you fire ot. Rule of thumb is if you can run your finger nail accross the journal...
maybe try putting some washers under the wastegate actuator and porting the internal gate a bit just make sure you leave enough metal for it to seal properly
So i just picked up a Black box ecu, COP setup and MSD DIS-2. Now i realize the MSD itself has two step and rev limiter functions built in but thats not why i bought it. I picked it up because i wanted a higher powered ignition system to run my individual coils because one i wanted to clean up...
If it runs at all i wouls be surprisedit shouldnt have just locked up like that. Check all your timing marks, check your oil pressure if it runs and check your compression
