Ok while I was removing my turbo cams and putting in some cams better for the super charger I decided to repaint my valve covers and start the dress up stage since i am pretty much done mechanically.

Now this is not a Cobalt lol, but I own two of these cars and have done a lot of work building on this type of vehicle for friends and car club members. I am actually parting one out now and replacing the motor in another for a close friend.

Anyway this is the old engine bay pic:


Now I have to finish the timing tomorrow and redo the tensioner and belt. However after that its time for another test drive where hopefully I do not run into the problems I did before with my turbo cams and high rpms with the SCer.

As she sits now:




I def have some more clean up to do but its that time where I finally have everything else in place so I can get started.

 

looks good, wow i was confused for a second thinking it was a cobalt

 

what car is that anyways, cant tell by motor alone

 

My guess is an MX-6...

 

Its a Probe Body Actually. But yes the mx6 and the probe are pretty much identical.

I will finish washing her and take some new pics. I have been to busy to lately but its time for some new pictures.

 

lol, I was like WTF? 3 Cyl???? Then i noticed the other head, lol

 

Teh Mazda valve covers threw me.

 

Yeah its a 3cyc geo :p

Well I still don't feel like painting the IM yet but I pretty much have her ready.

Since I am not a huge fan of ford and Mazda did most of the design until it comes to the probes actual body changes and interior changes I just rebadged the whole car (Even the wheel lol) Not to mention the many other cars I have pulled parts from including the HEI GM Ignition Module Change lol.

 

I thought it was a 3L Duratec looking at the first pic...or an SRT-4 motor by the intake mani
