    assembly lube?

    I used Lucas, the only thing it's good for :biglaugh: You don't need to douse the engine with the stuff though, just on all moving parts, the inside of bearings, thrust washers, you can pack the oil pump, etc... it should be pretty obvious when to use it, you don't need any for the cylinder walls

    Jaguar_5's 87 Turbo Build

    Ok I lied, not much of a 'real' update, but i did get some work done. I'm still waiting on the torque plate, in the mean time I'm tackling some head work! I installed all new springs (the cheap com cams ones) on the intake side (took abit of practice with the snapon tool, i had to stand on a...

    heted leather in a 87?

    can't be too hard, I didn't even know 90+ had heated seats! I would just get a switch for it from the donor, and any wiring harness it's attached to, so if you have to splice any wires, you can do it sleek and still use a quick disconnecting plug! If you do have to splice, it should be simple...

    Well Crap!!!! help me plz

    If it's not sealing at 81 ft/lbs, it's not gonna seal at 85 After the block and head were decked, did you run your fingernail accross it? Could you feel ANY machine marks (swirly ridges) And you didn't specify where the coolant is leaking from, what if it's not even the HG?

    gte problem

    If it's cranking slow, I'd say (in order of likeliness, IMO) 1. Not enough charge (what kind of bench charger? those are usually really slow and won't work to jump a car) Either let it charger overnight, try a new battery, or try actually jumping it with another car 2. Shot starter 3. Bad...

    Remote Starters w/cool down timers

    Doubt that will happen guys, it is illegal to have a remote start on a manual car, so would be stupid to sell a kit for legal issues! You can of course, hypothetically, purchase the auto remote starter and bypass the clutch switch yourself ;)

    JT2MA71's Build. Dyno video on post # 1191

    Are you serious? He answered that like 5 posts ago And a torque plate will stretch the bore a little bit, the same way it will when you install the head, the plate applies that torque evenly like the head would, and lets you bore the block A newer addition to this, is bore the block with the...

    Best head gasket: cometic vs hks , etc

    No kidding! I've easily spent well over $1000 in toyota bolts, hoses, clamps, belts, gaskets, and lots of other toyota parts and tiny things! I'm doing what i consider a conservative build, and I wish i didn't have to say i've eclipsed the 8k mark
