#6 was my favorite part when we were dropping my friends cobalt motor lol

 

main concern for taking the whole thing out is all the wires... theres a metric **** ton of them. does the fusebox stay in place?

 

Fuse box comes out when trans comes out. It's all plug and play.

 

k

guess i oughta have another look at that build book; i havent really looked at it since my stg2 install

 

All the wiring plugs are dummy proof. Only reach so far and only go to one connector

 

They always do

 

alright guys just got a killer deal on 80# valvesprings from performance autowerks. could NOT pass the deal up! message omiotek for details they got good sales going on.

i will still wanna get new seals and retainers but atleast i can say springs are out of the way now!

 

I saw those. .. Make me nervous

 

Fuse box comes out. you have a few bolts to take out and it will come straight out. Look at the build book again. It really is dummy proof. When I was doing Omioteks trans with him he was going over it with me. Not as complicated as it looks

 

unless they are a dual or need a special retainer for the spring or you want to buy titanium there is no need for new retainers

why zzp is a single spring also

I prefer a dual spring that's a lot of pressure for a spring that small to carry

 

I picked up these springs as well. Good to know i won't need new retainers.

 

omiotek suggested re-using stock retainers; i may just do that and save the $. seals though? gotta find those?

they are single springs

 

ZZP carrys seals

 

yup just found em! added to list

and blu sorry to make you hold onto those cams for me so long, i'm hoping to get you soon to have em shipped out

 

blue you going man cams?

 

Eh I still think blue is being a ***** with the cams, but its a step in the right direction

 

Hahaha

 

ours are tested to high rpm and road race proven in scca cars and our nasa tt cars..... not to mention as i told rice burner my dad is a iso-9001 certified manufactuer for gm and ford, delphi, us military and has been in business nearly 30 years. these are top notch and rice will be perfectly fine. when i hear or see one break i will let you know because as far as im concerned i havent seen one break to this day

 

I was supposed to hold on to them? **** I sold them to another member already lol

Not quite as big man as you but hope to make it up in other areas

 

well, it wasn't on my build list but i couldn't pass up the black friday deals. got a zzp stealth heat exchanger. considering it holds 3x more coolant and has better use of fins i simply had to. besides its gonna be tough running a 2.7 with an ati this summer! gonna need all the cooling i can get

also purchased a meth kit from someone on here this week, since either my pump or controller shat out a month or so ago. #YOLO

 

dude mine drives better then a stock car but they are a little more work

 

I'd like to go the custom cam route but I have no idea where to begin. And you said you can get them through comp for less than zzp?

 

yes you can but you will need adj cam gears and a camshaft degreeing kit and learn how to use it and time the hex yourself which is not hard

 

Hmm, ill look into it.
