Fist of all, awesome work and killer car. I heard the "WTF surge" (the ECU trying to figure out WTF the engine is doing) but I know what a PITA an...
I can vouch for large production companies running out of parts on a regular basis. I worked at Caterpillar for 5 years and we ran out of at least...
Oops, my bad. I just looked quick and labeled it a GM :D I just knew that as soon as I said it looked like a chubby it would turn out to be a Y...
There are so many toploader variations that its difficult to say if it will bolt right in. Many toploaders will in fact bolt right in using a 3...
*Looks for distributer* I think that engine is the wrong breed for a Mav, or maybe the dizzy just isnt installed yet? :D
I guess you could TRY the turbo, but I have to disagree with the turbo being a perfect size for your application. Sure, you COULD hook it up and...
With a 6 banger it would be a cakewalk to fit a turbo under the hood. If it came off of a t-bird, it is most likely an IHI, or a T3 neither of...
Anybody have a nice one? I want a simple steerhead, but one with some style would be great. I actually already found a very nice one(attached),...
I contemplated it, but looking at the frame rails towards the front of the wheelwells, you will notice a maximum of 2" clearance gained after...
Yeah, they use a two piece bracket for the calipers. Im not where I can take any pics right now, but Ill try to get some snapped tomorrow.
Cant you just run the first cylinder in the firing order up to tdc on the compression stroke and verify timing on the balancer and dizzy? That...
Damn thats weird. Maybe you could take a punch and make a few small divets in the head and the intake around the problem areas. Then use some...
Cam walk could definitely cause timing to fluctuate. Maybe there was too little endplay when the engine was built leading to excess heat and wear...
I remember a few of my friends had Kuwaharas when I lived in Okinawa. Those bikes were what the "rich kids" got to ride. I was stuck with a...
Transbrakes engage clutches in a transmission in a way that locks the transmission against itself so the engine is loaded and the converter can...
Very nice! But uhhhhh...drums?! :D
Im pretty sure head gaskets have the holes in them, so I believe you use the gasket as a template. Im still not sure why you would have to do this...
AVIs are already highly compressed so you may not be able to get it alot smaller without losing quality. If you want to send it to me, try to...
I should be able to do it. What format is it in right now?
Very cool. I had no idea NAPA sold primers besides rattle can stuff. Thanks
