Well, maybe no winner, but I know I'm the loser.

Will someone PLEASE tell me, what universe is this stuff worth $55.07???

Thank you sir.

Interesting read.

Wow. Ok, I'm now thinking it's a 3/8 bsp.

$255 from Driftmotion.com Hmm. Looked up the bearing online, and found that Oreilly auto sells them for both turbo and na. NA- $89.99 (Anchor part#8588) Turbo- $346.99 (Pioneer part #648588) Holy Shiite muslim. Then I read a thread on here that says NA will fit turbo...

Looks great.

So, my question is... oh. I guess I already asked it. Anybody know? It's either 5/8x18, or M16x1.5. ...i think.

Wow. THAT motor won't be used again. ever. I have read that the W58 tranny is fine up to 300hp. I used to have that setup with the gte(260hp), and it was quick. The car looks even better with the black and white photos- can't even tell that it's not one color. :)

Well, if you use head bolts, you don't engage the threads as far down as they go. Dunno if the studs thread down further, but using a bottom tap hits those dark scary places. Oil driveshaft, oil pump and Arizona performance supply pipe, done. Oh- forgot: I also had my machine shop mill down...

Never a bad idea to clean the headstud threads...

Today's progress: Next up is to install the oil pump driveshaft, oil pump, oil pan & front timing cover.

Thanks. It's kind of a candy apple color from VHT. Had to order it because none of my local auto parts stores seemed to carry it.

So, I go to begin engine assembly today, and I realize that I can't really trust my old craftsman 1/2" drive torque wrench any more, as I had noticed that when I set it to like 40 ft-lbs, it would just keep torquing, and not click. So I didn't want to use it without having it calibrated first...

I don't think the engine is supposed to idle at stoich, I would expect it to be leaner than that. How is power output? I'm wondering if there's a possibility that one of your cams might be off a tooth on timing.

What he said. Not sure exactly what you mean by 'bang', but if it's a busted tranny mount or worn center support bearing, jabbing the throttle or letting off results in a 'clunk' in my experience.

LOL! By the time mine's up and running, there will no longer be fossil fuels. But i can always show up in my MR2.

I still have to put one more coat and then clearcoat, but here's just a quick glimpse of it: Primered: Painted ARP's test fitted Still have to install the oil driveshaft bearings tomorrow, before I can do any real construction. But now I have *almost* everything I need to turn it into a...

Then YOU hit me up if you need a hand too!

Loganville- not far. LMK if you need a second set of hands for anything. I'm currently in the engine build phase of my restoration.
