    Lol no! That's Bruce Campbell, aka "Ash" from Evil Dead, right when he snapped and went temporarily batty. If you haven't seen the original, rent it- its hilarious. Here's an accurate picture of me:

    Re-Tapping Exhaust for Bigger Exhaust Studs

    I pieced together my own 7/16 kit, when i realized that DM charges close to $29 in shipping on that kit. I purchased black oxide hardened studs, ground/hardened washers, 7/16 helicoil kit, and self-locking exhaust nuts for about $50 total shipped. Problem was, i had to piece the whole setup...

    Experts do you think this turbo will perform well on a 7mgte ????

    Since you're running stock injectors, i'd say that the turbo is good to ~ 375hp

    Good to hear- Thanks. And just to keep a sense of progress, i'll just mention that my Driftmotion intercooler kit has been *trying* to get to my house. Third failed delivery attempt happened today, but i've been out of town. Hopefully i get home before it heads back across the country.

    How to Fix that Busted Up Front Lip!

    Looks great, but did that sealant/ fiberglass on the backside harden up at all? Im just wondering if it will withstand any vibration/ flexing.

    Furious But Lazy 7M owner who gave Up.

    So... I was right? The tabs are to be pressed against the sides of the bolts? But they weren't in this case, because arp's were used?(the deep obvious) So, why is there a locking plate on the flywheel in this case? I ask, because i was thinking of buying one, but I'm using arp's also, and...

    Well, I'm sorry Steven. Ive' been staring at the pic, as deep in to the obvious as i can, but my eyes aren't what they used to be. I don't have any experience with using a lock plate. Maybe you could help a brotha out ?

    Cool. Sounds exactly like the line i just bought for the rail connections.

    what to do, what to do?

    You'll just have to swap over a few sensors from your old motor, so that you don't have to change any plugs on the harness.

    Really Stupid Coolant Issue.:cry:

    Yeah, like Grandhavi said, you were describing classic bhg symptoms, and saying you didnt think it was bhg BECAUSE of those symptoms. Everyone simply said "it sounds like bhg". Meanwhile, all you had to do was go down to Autozone or wherever, and borrow(not buy) a block tester. But you didn't...

    Project Git 'er done!: Stages 1, 2, 3, 4....Stage 5- Reassembly after 13 years!!!

    Id be kinda surprised if it were to overheat from such a small oil cooler. And it is an upgraded rad as well. But you're right. I'll keep it as-is for now, and see if it needs an amendment once its running.

    Upgrades for stock rebuild

    Yeah, if you are only looking for 300rwhp, then a Lex/550 setup/ mbc, and a freeflow exhaust(turbo elbow) is all you need to do to get there. You don't need a meth kit or MAFT pro, etc. keep it simple. Like Bogwon said, arp's are a good idea, but even a Felpro or toyota headgasket is reliable...

    Furious But Lazy 7M owner who gave Up.

    Aren't the tabs on that DM flywheel lockplate supposed to be bent in towards the bolts? Isnt that what keeps the bolts from loosening?
