    Shipping a car? Ideas?

    Was it a big pain to get the car loaded and unloaded? Or is it pretty straightforward?Like they come to you, they load it up easy painfree, transport it and deliver it to your custom requested location?Or is it like a place you have to meet them at both to and from like a uhaul etc.?

    Weird leakdown test issue

    Alright it's solved.I took the valve cover off to see the lobes position.I rotated to tdc again with lobes up and all is well. Perfect leakage.Lesson learned, just take the VC off next time plus it's easier to rotate engine since cam has hex for wrench...

    2G Koni full coilover overkill for daily driver?

    Yeah about the thrust bearings.Hmm, that's a damn shame because I liked that part along with the spherical bearing idea, no resistance to travel etc.Well Florida would destroy them then, so that is a good point you made. Thanks for mentioning!

    2G 1g CAS with Kiggly Crank Trigger

    I just got my car running. 1g block and head. Kiggly crank sensor, 1g cas, just not using crank signal from the 1g cas.As suspected, the spark timing is right on and is not effected by the 1g cas being adjusted.However, if I move the cas, it is still effecting the engine. If I move it too...

    How to balance tires

    Thanks for the tips- I will keep in mind to be diligent of the condition before and after serviceCall man thanks.

    PCV valve alternatives

    Thanks for the reply although its not the info I was looking for.I'm talking simply swapping out the stock pcv valve with another car (like a Honda or some other model with a more robust part but still a direct fit) pcv valve.

    PCV valve alternatives

    Just wondering if anyone has ever tried replacing the stock one with one from another car or something.The stock one leaks boost into the crankcase even when new.The us plastics check valve potentially restrics flow rate.Seems like it would just be easier to find one that doesn't leak...

    318 with a massive Cummins isx turbo

    I find it highly unlikely anyone in my tiny little welfare town of 1k has the ability to strap a HE551 to their 318 or their 12v Dodge.I intended this deal to attract semi truck owners, guess I should specify next time.I didn't think kids wishing upon a star would pollute my post with their...

    318 with a massive Cummins isx turbo

    Yes, I will sell it to him if his ego isn't bigger than his intelligence which would waste each other's time when he backs out of the deal at the last minute.I find it funny these people that act like they can just take any old turbo to their project.Was hoping to find some collective humor...

    over tightening knock sensor

    Edit my previous reply-1-1/16" is actually a bit smaller than 27mm. The 1-1/16" oil sender socket I had wasn't quite big enough so I honed it out a bit bigger to fit.

    over tightening knock sensor

    16ft lbs for a 2g turbo. 420a is 7ft lbs. From my 1997 factory service manual. I'll buy a 27mm socket to modify.Also, the socket size is 27mm for a 2G turbo confirmed just today on a new sensor. The sensor PN for a 2g turbo is MD300670. 1G turbo is MD141510.27mm or 1-1/16". The latter being...

    2G What bolts go here

    19eclipse90The fuel filter bolt I'm talking about is actually a 6mm. That picture doesn't show the other side where the clamp ends meet, cinched down with a 6mm bolt.And the channel, do you know what part number?The pictures are just absolutely refusing to post.
