no use repeating everything

 

Damn man that sucks!

 

yah, but hopefully i can get the motor warrantied. theres no way thats from abuse.

 

well just ordered the parts needed to build a fully forged motor so maybe i will get this project finished this lifetime.

 

LOL hurry up already

 

it's looking like it will be another 3 weeks to a month provided we don't hit any snags.

 

yikes damn man.

 

it happens, if the last motor didn't **** a crankshaft i would allready be on the road and turbo'd.

 

here's some pics of us pulling the motor







manifolds test fit







intercooler test fit

 

Looks like youre getting close. Stick with it Jimbo

 

i'm trying to, hopefully i don't run into anymore catastrophic failures.

 

how long did it take to pull the motor? just curious.

 

2 1/2 hours with 3 people working on it.

 

Looks like fun. I hope the new engine with the turbo kit goes together well for you. Nice SAAB intake manifold too!

Could you give some specs on that intercooler you have please?

 

Coming along really good man!

 

28x8x3.5 has a pr drop of about 1.0 at 21 psi, and can flow 1000cfm. and just barely fits too! yah the saab manifold was cheap, and it allowed me to get rid of the restrictive stock lower intake manifold.

yah, hopefully i can catch up and get this finished in the next month.

 

dayum that saab intake mani looks really good how much did it run you?

 

200 bucks

 

**** really how'd you pull that off? and why aren't 2.2's getting that instead of the 2.4 swap
