    my car is poping/sputtering over 10psi

    The Autolites are shorter than the (JIC standard?) plugs used on the 7M...about 1/8". On some wires, they work fine...on others they dont. I would get some NGK coppers in a "7" heat range, gapped to .027"-.028".

    What do have the plugs gapped at? What brand/heat range plugs?

    Thermostat Needle Always at High

    That tells me the wire from the sensor is or the gauge is grounding out: http://www.cygnusx1.net/supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=BE&P=42 Disconnected from the sensor, the gauge should move to cold (ignition on). Where are you getting voltage at exactly? Attach the connector to the...

    For Those Running (or have run) a GT4088R (aka GT40R) Turbo

    Thanks for the link...pretty interesting comparison. I'd like to see how the 4088 behaves on the 7M though ;)

    Swapped in a rebuilt motor - low oil pressure

    Boy...you sure got this one wrong ;) The oil cooler circuit does not function till the valve relief pressure (40 psi) is met...the spring will keep pressure at least at that psi. If pressure drops, the valve closes and oil stops flowing through the cooler circuit. If the valve is stuck open...

    lean out at 2600-2700

    Do this to confirm it's the fuel pump resistor...it's simple. Just disconnect the resistor and jump the 2 prong connector on the harness side with a 12GA wire. You'll have to strip the ends, flatten with a hammer, and file the sides to fit the connector.

    What is the risk of boosting hard on BHG motor?

    LOL...you must be able to see me biting my tongue (in half) reading this thread. I'll say this...running that motor, especially a drag race, with either a cooling system problem or a BHG is going to end in a very expensive way. IJ said it...park it till you figure out what it is.

    2 different topics in one thread??

    Awww...come on. Just think, fill up with 87 octane, advance timing to 16-18 deg, and drive up a 6% grade...make sure the RPM stays right around 3000 or so. That should take care of the EGR issue ;)

    2 different topics in one thread??

    He doesn't care...remember ;) Go ahead and block off the fuel vapor line from the tank (seal it off nice and tight) and you can remove the BVSV and the charcoal canister. Get rid of a bunch of those pesky vac lines around the intake manifold too while you're at it.

    Confusing clunk under back seat?

    More likely the rear u-joint. Could be the rear section of the driveshaft (it's a double tube w/ rubber connecting them).
