    Arp Studs vs. Bolts..need advice

    you do NOT need to remove the engine to put head studs in, and both the bolts and the studs need to be retorqued after 5 heat cycles. i am in the process of fixing a BHG with ARP headstuds and a felpro HG, only pulled the head, block and everything else is still in ther car. my advice is, if...

    2JZ-GE-T Dyno and 1/4 Times

    damn i might have to do this as well! only thing, it seems the car is running slow trap speed for the power numbers it put down. with those numbers you should be a lot closer to 110mph at least. how bad was it spinning off the line?

    Temp Gauge Sensor broke

    u can remove the housing and get at it from the inside, a pair of vise-grips or pliers should do the trick.

    ya, to get a useful sponsor you're cars gotta be fast already... no one is gonna give just anyone discounted parts, only the fast and well known cars get the good sponsors.

    I give up! One for the experts..

    put the engine to 0 degrees on the crank mark, make sure piston 1 is at tdc, make sure the cam gear marks line up, make sure the dowel pins are in the correct positions, then make sure your cps looks like this. then go get yourself a timing light.
