That's it. Whenever I get my plates I'm gonna try to get them on while the engine is still in the car, and if I still have the leak after I put on the new turbo, dp, and egr plates I'm gonna pull the engine out a few inches and replace the gasket on the EGR cooler, I helicoiled the head so the...

not quite sure. The egr cooler is on the back of the head....rectangular. I'll go take a pic and repost..brb

cool cool...I've been to dayton before, I live in the cleveland area. Welcome!

my .02 cents (which is coming from my ass I guess???) Unless you're rebuilding the w58, I don't think it's gonna hold the power from a turbo 5.0 engine. Do some research and find out how much it actually can hold reliably, and then figure out how much power you're expecting to get from that...

ok ok ok...if you're gonna do a v8 swap, if you just HAVE to do it...at least make it a chevy engine. And if you are gonna use a ford (mercury) engine....don't use one out of a cougar...those cars just suck. In all honesty...I went to the local drag track in my 93 saturn sl2 automatic with my...

what a joke! over $1k to do a headgasket.

geeze....I need one of those. Great find and good luck!

I've got small hands and NO patience, I was gonna put a new gasket on it before...but I got too damn lazy and forgot. When I use EGR block off plates do I have to do anything with the EGR cooler? or just leave it alone. Also...how could I go about bypassing my heater inside the car, because my...

www.cygnusx1.net has a layout of all the vacuum lines somewhere on there, and it shows where all the vacuum lines under the intake manifold lead to, it might give you an idea of what you can get rid of

thanx, I'm swapping in a different AFM when I put the whole thing together, and I'm gonna check the ISC later today when I finish a few other things, so that should get rid of 24 and 51....Shaeff was supposed to be makin me one of his knock sensor rewire kit things but I haven't heard from...

I'm with Tony on this one, you can give them some discomfort without putting yourself in trouble...so what if his head hit the pavement when you tackled him so the cops could arrest him...wasn't my fault :evil2: :biglaugh: j/k. You kick their asses, the cops make them pay for the damage, and...

a couple hundred for a stripped drain plug? were they gonna plug it with a large diamond or solid gold bolt?

I should have one, I'm parting out my 87 turbo 5spd and I haven't really taken the dash out yet. If you want it I can get it to you for pretty cheap (if I can find it :confused: ) you don't have windows? which ones do you need, all mine are in good shape on the 87 (minus the windshield) and I...

sweet! So you say it's an 89 turbo auto, very nice. How's she look? congrats on the buy!

you can get a new one from toyota, or maybe other places. I re-used mine for the time being and coated it in some gasket sealant, don't know how smart that was but I was in a hurty

ouch, that hurts

bump, rewrote the whole thing listing all my problems. I pulled codes 24, 51, and 52 about 2 weeks ago and haven't pulled since, the cars torn apart right now so I can't go pull them. thanx!

haha...the old "swap in a v8" style thread. 350 would be the cheapest as it has the most aftermarket backing. But, if you're gonna do it, cut a huge hole in your hood and put a massive blower on it, cuz even with the 350 in it you're not gonna catch the 2jz swapped mkiii's. If I had the money...

omg that's stupid. Not even jiffy lube could screw up that bad, they do oil changes everyday. There is NO WAY they did that. 15qts....what the...that sux Pioneer: what do you charge for an engine rebuild with forged internals and set up with a mhg? I have a spare engine I want to rebuild/have...

List of problems and what I've tried so far, car is an 89 turbo with a 5spd swap, completely stock minus the K&N FIPK. -Exaust leak in the back of the engine bay, sounded like it was coming from the exaust manifold/turbo and I'm also only getting 3psi of boost. So, I pulled the turbo and...
