Top end reassembly

[90CherryTSI]

Is there anything that shows the reassembly of the top end in the correct order/hooking up everything? I got the head together, and I know I need to bolt on the intake mani, and the brace, but does anything run down and go into detail the correct order to put this stuff back together like knock sensor and all the little stuff? Or maybe someone in Austin TX wanna help me out? I didn't see anything on vfaq on this, any other good resource that would have this?

Thanks tuners

A manual has the run down on what to do. Try a Haynes even from auto zone.

people who have done it know the small stuff you may forget, like stuff you may have disconnected you didn't HAVE to. I figure a hose here, a bolt there, something like that and usually write-ups have all that listed as the ppl who wrote em know about that little stuff, and werent mechanics so they learned by trial and error. The ppl that wrote the books knew what they were doing, I'd like the perspective of someone who has actually reattached everything, and what to look out for that's easy to forget if possible...thx for that info tho

The manual won't short you out on anything man. Take my word for it. You should go get a factory service manual from mitsu, but a haynes or chiltons will do you just as good.

About factory service manuals. They usually totally rock. I just pulled my buddys 13B out of his FD 93 RX7 and boy is that FSM all sorts of FUBAR. I mean we couldn't pull the engine loose from the tranny and couldn't figure it out for like 15 minutes and 2 smokes. We ended up having to unbolt the pressure plate and out it went. FSM just said pull it out and the dumb pictures just showed a hovering engine. Turns out that 3rd gens have a pull type clutch insead of a push style that 99.2% of every manual car has. Had to read that on a forum and how to actually "Unlatch that TOB" on that same site. FSM said squat. I bet a chiltons or Haynes manual might have said something about it. Get both and read on forums you can't go wrong.
