Great guys...lets tell Weezl to do something that could make him sick :3d_frown:

Be very careful taking vac lines off...make very sure you understand what it does before you pull anything off. The vac lines are an important part of the EFI system...you can cause all kind of problems with idle, AFR, etc if you pull vac lines without thinking.

You sure can...temp reading will not be accurate until the thermostat opens up. You don't have an aux or A/C fan do ya? ;)

That won't work...re-read his post, the nut is spinning inside the sub-frame. You'll very likely have to drop the rear sub-frame and either replace it or weld it. If you have to cut into the structural integrity of the frame, SySt is correct...welding is not the best idea. I'm not sure if...

BTW...I'd like to know how this works out. It's a new one...LOL

You should see it in person ;) Got a 7M-GTE motor in it w/ lots of mods and it weighs about a 1000# lighter than a Supra.

You're welcome ;) LOL...just an advertisement for direct TV.

Here you go. The timing belt pulley looks correct in your pic...I suspect the lower timing cover.

:umno: Read the TRSM...it calls for ATF to be used in the P/S.

That should be fine...just remember, there's .039" to 1mm. I use .040" and call it a day.

Yes you can Andy...in fact, the TRSM calls for Dextron or Dextron II to be used. This might be a good time to drain all the fluid and replace it.

That would be the Idle Speed Valve ;) PM tubbie...I think he has everything...LOL

I'd stick with the 1.5mm...the gain you'd get from the extra compression is very small and would increase the likelyhood of detonation. And...LOL. I'd never call a Marine a retard...think I'm stoopid :naughty: Besides, the only dumb question is the one you don't ask ;)

Powdercoat will...quickly. I've been doing this for over 3 years and have almost my entire engine done in it. Like I said...dirt/oil/grime wipes right off. And it has never discolored on intakes, cam covers, brackets, etc. Very high heat will cause some discoloration, but it takes on more of...

This product is pretty much bullet proof...it will never tarnish; dirt just wipes off using a good cleaner like 409 or Simple Green. You are correct though...the ceramic takes on the surface characteristics of the metal. Since aluminum is soft and the intake must be bead blasted, it takes on...

You mean like this? 2000 deg ceramic chrome...easier to keep looking good vs std chroming. Provides a thermal barrier as well. The ceramic can be applied to any metal...it will not chip, flake or discolor.

Actually, you would want a 1.5mm thickness....008" = .2mm + 1.3mm = 1.5mm. A 2mm will work, but you will lower your compression some...if I'm not mistaken, you have a N/A motor. You really don't want to lower the compression, but it won't hurt anything either...other than dropping your HP a...

It can if it is advancing the timing. Normally this happens after a re-build...the CPS doesn't "jump" a tooth (due to the helical gearing) like the timing belt can. Do a search on "high idle" and PM me with the problem.

Ooops! Post #4 :naughty:

Sure it does...post #7
