    Damaged Cams on 7m-gte?

    Scored cam caps, while "normal" on 7m's, is still not good at all. If they installed the caps incorrectly im also surprised the cams didnt seize in the caps. And if it actually ran like that for more then a little while, i would say that the whole head is junk. It doesnt take much to warp...

    As i can remember i think that that rear diffuser has been discontinued. Ive heard you can make an mk4 one work with relatively little effort though.

    Removing the cam gears

    Do NOT put a screw driver in there to stop the cam gear from spinning, unless you want a broken cam gear. Seen it happen in person, before i could even warn the guy, SNAP! broke the one of the gear spokes clean off. Maybe youll get lucky, but why risk it? Go get an impact gun. Good tools are...

    Milo's Booster Seat...

    Before you go cutting apart lightposts, keep in mind i allready have all the materials including the aluminum tubing to make the manifold. So all we have to do is get the motor in so i can see the angle the throttle body needs to be at to clear the alternator

    All of this sounds to me like you had short or drain. You killed your battery, and now it wont take a full charge again. Get a new battery.

    pistons and valves?

    Yes there is a dimension. Normally about .001 from the top to the bottom of the spec. You can change the rod bore to anywhere inside that spec to get the desired oil clearance.

    pistons and valves?

    Well i stand corrected as i've never had a set of pauters in hand. The problem i most have is that the rods all come slightly larger then needed and have to be cut down and honed for the correct oil clearance. Most people will get a set of rods and just bolt them on, and 99% of the time they...

    pistons and valves?

    Actually most rods are out of round. Aftermarket and stock. Even my crowers were out of round. Every rod should be honed to the right size and normally that will make them round again. The thrust sides of the rod are the important ones. The problem is that when you cut down a rod to make it...

    pistons and valves?

    Oh and on one more note, if by rebadged rods your referring to the h-beams sold on ebay, and the no name h-beams sold by others, they are a different brand manufactured in a different factory. I've had both rods in hand and i can assure you they are different.

When they first came out they had some problems but that was years and years ago. I've built motors numbering in the thousands with eagle rods...

    pistons and valves?
