I think I answered the same question in the general section the same way yesterday. lol

Yeah I think that was all mis-understood. I asked cuel if the OBX was in the correct order I couldn't tell from the pic.

How many miles on the motor? Sounds mostly like a tired motor.

Question. If a 6 into one collector is used it shouldn't make any difference what order they are in would it? As long as the primaries are pretty much the same length.

Don't have any took them out and put screen in for air.

Well it's more a feel that you get and to each his own. The front just felt heavy in cornering with 245's all around. Messing up the balance of the car with different sizes, I don't think so. In hard cornering I like to have more rubber in the rear because that's were you will have control when...

That's great. The thread was getting long enough to make a TV mini series.....There you go:)

Hey hey, now us old guys need to stick together:) What happened to your build thread IJ? Is the Fatty still running?

Why do they keep mounting the damn O-2 all the way down there? I wouldn't think the clamps would hold very long with the vibration and heat cycles. The Pacesetters had to have some custom work also.

JJ said you did and that's good nuff for me:)

And you called me weak JJ:biglaugh:

I tried 245's all around and didn't like the way it handled the front end just didn't feel right, so I went back to the 225's on the front. It just gave me a better feel of what the front is doing under hard cornering.

You are sure the cam gears, top dead center on #1 piston, crank pully, and distributor on #1 all line up? If you pull a spark plug wire and put a paper clip in the wire and touch the clip to ground when you crank it it should spark. I remember somebody saying to take the CSI out and turn...

Well then you can rebuild it:naughty:

That's not to bad a price for a set of stainless headers, I couldn't tell if the #2 and #5 were in the right place, it looks like it.

If it backfired it sounds like it maybe timing. You say the tank was empty, you might want to change the fuel filter, maybe it's plugged from sediment if it was empty and you only put a gallon in............Have you verified you have fuel and spark?

Need more info. How long was the car sitting, what else had been done, etc.

Damn JJ you ought to stickie all the little tricks you know to check things out, they don't put all those in the TSRM. You have a very common-tech way of looking at things and how they relate and react that even I can understand.:) Glad you are here. I can suggest things that might be the...

TSRM has all the torque specs, no rockers on a 7m, don't really understand what you are trying to do, are you going NA/T? If so there are several threads on the conversion. If you have water on top of the pistons I would highly recommend a complete tear down as you probably have contaminated...

The idle is controlled by the ECU. I don't know what screw you are talking about, there is adjustment nuts on the cable, a throttle stop screw and that's about it. The BVSV is for the charcoal canister. But if you haven't capped off the vac lines to the throttle body you should cap them off...
