its not that deep. just a surface scratching. my pistons are .020 over

since there is scarring on the block in car, should i use the spare block or the block in the car? the block thats in the car is pretty new and clean, but the spare block isnt fucked up. it shouldnt matter since my new pistons are oversized tho right? thanks for the input -pete

there was also some scarring on the bore of that same cylinder. its perfectly lined up with the piece missing. i was planning on waiting till the summer to get the injectors cleaned and flow tested, but since im gonna build the new motor now, i will send them out this week. or im also trying...

i see...

so thats what that is. ive never run lean before. only pig rich.

what do you mean torched?

its a pretty big chunk... i dont see how it can get down there. but i guess there is no other explanation.

Did i clean what? the piston head? actually the valves and combustion chamber for that cylinder are for the most part clean and shiney... i guess all that unburnt fuel cleaned it up good. i cant find it anywhere... its too big to fit past the valves. and if it did, it didnt damage the...

how the hell do you chip a piston? how could one guy have so much bad luck?

yea well i finally pulled the head. thought it was a stuck valve. was looking at the valves and they all seem fine. but i did find this.

hahaha.... ive never seen these before. luckily i was browsing through parts on ebay, which i never do, and found this rare item. the guys says its a "rare hks vacuum fitting." apparently he was selling some old stuff in his garage. i wish i knew how to get off the stock fitting. ive used...

or you could just put on of these awesome vacuum fittings i just got.

put a vacuum line t fitting on the main vacuum source from the intake manifold and run that to the map sensor. i mounted the map sensor behind the fuse box near the igniter bracket.

ive got full coverage on mine through progressive but theyve never inspected the car to determine its value. i did get addition coverage for modifications up to $6000 even though ive spent around $20000. my car isnt registered as a classic tho. ive got to look into this

pretty embarrassing to admit too

i installed my sensor in the test pipe. i pulled out the passenger seat and pulled up the carpet. then drilled a hole through the floor for the sensor wire. sanded, rustolium, rubber gromet and siliconed it to prevent rust. i mounted the wb controller right under the passenger seat carpet...

ive got an odd question.... did you remove your rear windshield wiper? its sound funny but its a serious question. my wiper arm is removed but i left the motor in. i had the same problem... i had the walboro pump installed for about two years and had no problems. one day i noticed i slight...

i think you should go over your wiring to make sure your grounds are correct.

lol

be careful with a jdm motor. often you dont know too much history about the motor. they are just pulled off a totaled car and sold as a "JDM Motor" which people consider a good investment. my motor i got 3 years ago was "remanufactured" whatever that means. about 2 years after it was...
