    Engine Builders???

    I have finally built the 7m and used a 2mm Titan MS HG.. The question I have is now that I am using the MHG do you still have to put silicone on the 2 places (front) between the head and block or was this just an issue with using a stock gasket? Thanks, Matt

    Pulley Info

    I found a few post on replacing the crank pulley but need a little more info. My engine is being built and I was wondering if the lightweight Crank pulley would be ok to use? I know the stock one has the damper in it. If my engine is being balanced with a lightweight pulley what would it hurt?

    AC question.

    My car idles around 650rpm and when I turn my AC on it drops to 500 or just below. Almost shuts off. When I have to stop as soon as I push in the clutch the car will idle to loww and shut off. What would cause the car not to Idle up when the AC is turned on?
