i bought my car with a bad motor with the intent of rebuilding it. After i tore down the motor i found it was a balance shaft belt that snaped. all my vavles were bent and the head was trashed. I had a buddy who fried a rod in his first gen with a ported rebuilt head. I had looked online and saw other people have put a 1g head on a 2g block, didnt know it would be this much trouble. the water pipe and thermastat housing were totally off and i had to get them out of a first gen... i also relize i have to rewire for the CAS.. After i got the head i thought i would go and find a 1g intake manifold since they flow better...so i got one and had it ported to match the head...now im trying to put everything back on the intake mani...the 2g parts dont fit on the 1g intake mani, and the 1g parts have the wrong hook up to the wiring harness.. help me out if you can... im greatfull for any anyone can give me at this point.
