I had just re-built the entire motor about 10 thousand miles ago. The head got decked, cleaned and pressure tested. The block got honed also.

was the block leveled? it can be warped 2.

warped block or head.would cause a hg to pop even with studs.

Without the wife noticing lol. Throw some shoes in there and she won't know where the money went :P lol love that one. it all comes to what you want in the end but one thing is boost is addictive and 7psi will end up wanting more. so if you go bigger now with the parts you wont be in it later on . ...

I love seeing this stuff its the idea that the car be almost as new as can be not much of the old stuff being used some interior parts and block head about it. i fig i be in the 10k range being fully built by me and the little work i need the ma...

thx its little more than i wanted to do but in the end it be what i want and less than the cost of a new car.

Started putting the lower end back together and on the first piston, broke one of the rings. Agh! After ordering the correct replacement and getting the wrong one 2x I finally got the right one, https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Zx4x9EEbL-c/UMAfZc3J_5I/AAAAAAAAhNs/2OR1B3kgYNs/s640/2012_07_28_6515....

If you want to feel quick, drive a hatch with b16 tranny. Well really any car with b16 tranny b16 tranny doesn't bake a difference that much because the gsr share the 1st an 2nd gear ratio.its that the b16/si just has a shorter 4th and 5th. the best tranny to bosst in is is a ls if you want the top...

are you useing a oem oil filter r cheap one. because there way different. the oem had a block off in it that keeps the oil from draining back into the pan when the car is off. somethings like oil weight filter can play into the part of spinning a bearing. The ports on the crank being blocked the dri...

it all comes down to the hook up and the driver in the end. i was having the same problem with my ls-vtec was getting it to the ground. nothing like going 60 mph and having the the tires brake lose when boosting then cant steer let alone see **** from the smoke.

can sr manifolds like the intake and turbo exhaust go on to a ka motor?

When I bought my car, the airbag light was flashing. When I had it inspected, my mechanic said he basically didn't know if it would actually deploy or not, it was going to cost an arm and a leg to replace them, and I've heard that the effectiveness of mid 90's airbag technology is questionable to b...

why no heilicoills?

get a 1/2 round copper pipe that about 6in long flaten 2in of it to use as a back on the holes you blow throw this help fill them, and wont stick to the welds. as for welding fire wall i wouldnt use a flex core welder you will have more problems then anything with heat, and weak spots in the fire wa...

this one do fine for welding on cars.

A mig burns too hot to do most automotive welding jobs. The sheet metal on 240's is paper thin. ok 3 things here. 1. is mig does burn hot but if you know how to use it it works fine on cars. I would know seeing i work in a autobody shop all we use is mig welders for sheet metal. 2. yes 240 sheet met...

i could only seem to get about 6,000miles out of motors at 16psi. i think at 12-13 they would last forever. these miles are pretty mean, countless hyghway pulls, hooning in parking lots, drift events, autoX events etc. i had pretty conservative timing, but drove like this right through the heat of t...

I looked at the eagle rods and was thinking on them but i not looking to get more then 300 hp tops as a daily driver and i know the scat will hold 500 hp easy. it seems to me from what i read it comes to pistons that give before the rods and i think i rather spend little more on them over the rods s...

kool but i think i going to get some scat rods and don't know on pistons yet what brand i am going to go with. with all the post saying the motor can do 300hp on stock but it getting iffy on the the stock stuff at that hp. from what i find 15 psi is around the 300 marker. so its going to come down t...

are you going to dyno it to see what numbers u are putting down?
well knowing u are at 15 psi is good thing to know on the stock rods and pistons. but how long does that last tho on the stock parts also is that a daily driver?

First i want to say is hi and i am new to the form. so here my questions. ok so here the deal just got the block and crank back form the machine shop. only had it cleaned decked polished, and honed. what i want to know is how much boost can u put on stock internals? like rods and pistons, main bolts...
