Ok I have a rebuilt engine maybe I did something wrong or the machine shop did. My oil clearances are 0.003 mains and rods .20 over JE/Eagle setup polished/balanced crank. it start it cold and you hear a knocking that appears after 5-6 seconds of idling then goes away when my car is at...

Is this normal bearing wear these are rod bearings. Had some sort of knocking pulled engine to see this I need opinions and the clearances were .003 this engine only had 300 miles on it. The crank was polished and cleaned before install. I did everything right so whats the issue.

It sounded like this on first start up all was prelubed correctly my main bearings clearance is .003 and so are the rods I'm within spec. all the bearings to the balance shafts were sealed by turning them to block the oil ports. the rear balance shaft didn't need one cause the oil comes from the...

I was wondering if there is a better way to install the converter bolts. Is there a window or a special wrench thats designed to get in the little place to tighten or loosen them? i had the head off and i took them off via the starter opening. so now the motor is complete and installed to the...

Just asking this, I'm assembling my engine and my EAGLE rods don't have the oil ports on the rod where the bearing has the port hole. Is this a flaw, is there suppose to be an oil port like the stock big rods? my rod cap are torqued to 47lbs with the lube. is that correct too.ROFL

I have a set of 1g cams they have the markings "A" and "F" they were pulled out of a 1g manual car. what are the specs I want an upgrade from my auto cams. I also have a set of cams from a 2g 96+ awd manual would those be better? opinions and specs would be appreciated thanks guys.LOL...

1G cams with A,F on them are 90-91 cams correct? I also have a set of 2g cams both from a manual drive car. What would be the better of the two. i can load pic if need be. the 2g cams a 6-2 a 7-2 any help would be great:thumb:1g cams:

Are these stretch studs like the 7 bolt according to a thread I just read.They were also said to be as strong as the ARP replacement is this correct? I have a set lying areound with 80K on em is it a good alteranative to spending 80bucks or just spend it. i don't plan on running more than...

This is a dumb question but I got mixed reviews. can I install eagle rod straight outta the box? has there ever been a defective set like example weight was off more than 2 grams? or the piston pin too tight for oil flow? i hear eagle rods are one of the best just taking percautions.

I am interested in JE pistons I can get a complete set for 200 from a buddy (he bought the wrong ones for his 7 bolt) so the part # is 208487 they are 85.5mm and I am interested in the Eagle Rods Part# CRS5900MA3D. What kind of gains will be had if it were bored .20 over and had a compression...

I am wondering what the bore is ? Is it 85mm i am getting some JE pistons Part number 208478 they are 85.5 mm compression 8.5:1 will I need to Bore 0.020 over? Some one help my understand please thanks This is my first DSM build so It is CRITICAL:thumb:

Is this fuel cut? my car under past half throttle cuts out and a cel light lights up, I let off and it goes out after 4 seconds and I can resume driving. Sometimes its so severe the car cuts out completely. I have to hit the console to get the stock boost gauge to turn on when I turn on the...

My cel light comes on when I go past half throttle, and the car cuts out hard until I let off. The cel light does go away after 4 seconds off the throttle. heres the video I made to Show my situation better. YouTube - Fuel cut?

There is no thread on this topic so its trial and error. Does anyone have a link or pictures to help me do this setup? My first post on this wasn't as successful http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/382027-auto-full-line-pressure-wot.html#post152329394

I would like to do the line pressure mod to my auto. I want it to have max pressure at WOT. i understand i need a switch setup on the throttle like a nitrous switch. I have yet to install my Translab shift kit. Should I just do the shift kit and adjust the pressure on the valve body in the...
