:rofl::rofl: I have that same servo issue as well, JJ

Agreed. I suppose that Pauters and Carillo's are at the top of the food chain, but Cunningham/ Eagle will do what we need. I had heard that Eagles should be sized prior to install; perhaps somebody has gotten a few that needed some adjustment. As for slap, I think it's a minor issue with any...

Good to see that you're back to work on this.

I chose Wiseco because A: they were ~$200 cheaper than CP & lighter than Ross, and B: the skirts are coated and the pin bore is offset to reduce piston slap. That part may be true of other pistons out there, but i havdn't heard of any. My power goal is ~400RWHP to start. I am overbuilding this...

Block, crank, piston, rods and front timing cover have been brought to the machine shop. They will be ordering the main studs for me. Hopefully, I'll have some nice engine pics for you all in a couple of weeks.

That isn't a power steering pump. :P

Got my Wiseco's the other day, and now I'm headed for the machine shop with the new block/ rods/ pistons.

The problem with the buttons no staying pressed in is due to the individual push contacts inside the unit. They are all topped by a stamped steel sleeve, which holds a spring loaded brass slide bar underneath, which has small tabs which in turn fit into plastic detents whithin each individual...

I'm pretty sure that all the aftermarket upgrades are steel, not aluminum. The included spacers are used so that you can set the proper preload by incrementally adding to the collars effective thickness(trial and error) till it is correct. It takes a bit of assembly/ disassembly, but you...

Well, I have no problem with big tachs, but a racing tach is supposed to be positioned so you don't have to take your eyes from the road. So, I don't see how this is much better than the factory tach that's directly in front of you.

Are all your windows' trims painted white? aside from that and the ricer tach, I like it.

Excellent story skills, wordsmith. :)

They have arrived. Time to go to the machine shop. Next parts on the list: ARP mains AZ oil supply pipe

Hmm... Total cost of suspension: Rear subframe weld. Free Fr and rear subframe poly bushings 220 Megan ez street coilovers. 700 Energy susp. F&R bushings. 120 Oem rear spherical bushings. 100 Reman'd steering rack...

BIC appeared to have proven that a seperated dp is better than a widemouth, because it reduced exhaust turbulence by reintroducing the wastegate gas downstream, rather than having the wastegate and turbine outlet gasses mix directly after the turbo.

Love pearl white.

I did that mod as well. As for the bushings, yes- energy suspension in black(they're graphite impregnated, unlike the red ones), and i might suggest Ronnie K. Subframe and steering rack bushings. This is the route i went. In the back, reinforce the rear subframe to avoid future cracks above the...

Great progress, Habanero.

Ditto.

Very nice.
