    Putting together SS Braided Line for AFPR(Help me Out)

    Well instead of buying a kit of SS lines for the Aeromotive AFPR I was looking into making some lines myself. Which lines will work with fuel and not allow vapors to seep out? Is it even worth it to build the lines myself? What tools do I need? What fittings would I need? How much line...

    Got off the Phone with Machine Shop about Rebuild...How does this sound?

    Sorry, already have ARP headbolts and a used HKS 1.2mm MHG, but will go with a new MHG just for insurance. This engine was rebuilt 15k miles ago and they already bored it to .020 over, the cylinder walls look good but are tapered at the bottom so the machinist said I should go to .040 to true...

    Got off the Phone with Machine Shop about Rebuild...How does this sound?

    Well I cracked a piston through the ringlands on my 1/2 Na-T so at first I was just going to hone the cylinders and deck the block/head for a thicker MHG. Install a one new piston and the 5 old pistons with new rings. BTW this was a rebuild from atk with 15 to 20k on it. After talking to the...

    Pistons

    I have heard they are similar to oem pistons, haven't heard anything bad about them yet...I don't know if I believe they are any stronger then stock pistons though as stated on ebay. A few people have used them on SF. Later.

    Assembling Shortblock...How Hard is it? (PICS No 56k)

    Yeah I just don't want to fuck anything up after spending a good amount of cash on parts. It probably isn't bad as long as my machinist does his job correctly. Later.

    Assembling Shortblock...How Hard is it? (PICS No 56k)

    Well I ended up cracking a piston on my 7MGE after going NA-T with 7MGE electronics, most likely due to detonation, I was monitoring with an lm-1 wide band but only got to realtime datalog once to my laptop, during the logging session I saw my AFR at 4k rpms hit 14.1 but then increase...

    Afpr Vs Rrfpr

    Ok I know that the Aeromotive AFPR has a boost reference port on it that raises fuel pressure by a 1:1 ratio, would this be ok to use on my NA-T using 7mge Electronics , Block, and Internals? Or do I need to run a true RRFPR where I can change the ratio of how much fuel is added compared to how...

    gasket discussion

    I believe from the factory it was FIPG, when you buy an aftermarket gasket set for the 7m they come with a cork oil pan gasket, I ended up using the cork gasket along with rtv on the edges, seemed to be doing well after 20k, but who knows when it would start leaking, I think the best bet is to...

    Think I've got the BHG...

    The engine overheats because of a BHG...hot combustion gases end up getting into the cooling system and don't allow the cooling system to do its job. Later.

    Just wondering how the cylinder bores look...I had 60 psi in the third cylinder so I pulled the engine. To me they look pretty good, still have the cross hatching. Third Cylinder
