  • Pulling engine

    Well without even having my engine in a year I get to pull it again. I almost have it out but I gotta wait to go back for the weekend. My bro and I did a leakdown test on it and there are 3 cylinders that have more leakage than the others. I think from my shitty carb that those duche bags sold me and the engine running rich the rings got washed out so I get to tear my engine apart again. But on the brighter side I gotta FAST system and a Holley Stealth Ram to put on it, I get to get my trans rebuilt, and we are building a set of control arms and panhard bars for both of our cars. Anyways thats what I just found out. Kinda shitty but oh well you gotta do what you gotta do.

      that's shitty...but i always look at having to fix something as potential for modding!!!... like instead of just replacing my rear end... i got 3.73's and all new BMR suspension!!!! so look at it as "preventative maintainance"

        The Fast system is pretty nice I hear. I think it has integrated wideband O2 so you can run that instead of regular shitty 14.7a/f o2 sensor.

          Yep I agree with Matt, while its out it sounds like a good time to mod. Maybe forged internals if you don't already have them and you can make it all pretty and shiney.

              lol its already pretty and shiny! But unfortunately I don't have the money for forged internals! I gotta rebuild the tranny and other shit. I am gonna scrap this engine sooner or later and the next one will be the best shit. Oh and ya the FAST sys. does have the wideband O2 sensor! w00t. I am still building that drag car with my brother so that is kinda sucking up the money too, lol. Damn race cars...

              Oh and on a side note...**** Honda. lol, avatar.

                              exactly...the only way to know what's going on is to take it all apart!...that's what i do! a little bit of trial and error everyonce in a while. really there is nothing too sophisticated on an F-body
