I know, short notice. I honestly wasn't expecting to have the car back together in time but I just finished reassembling the engine tonight and I'll be installing it by this weekend.

I'm currently on a GM stg 2 tune. Had 42's and a 2.85 before engine failure. Now I'll be running a 2.7 and 60's. Shoot me a pm with a price if you can do it. I don't have hptuners but I might be able to get my hands on it if need be.. (I'm looking at you Jerren)

I cheated and bought a complete bottom end just to get it back on the road. I miss my 25-30mpg. So tired of driving my old mans 11mph F-350, it's killing my wallet. I'll be building my blown up block as I get cash.

I highly doubt I'll have the car together Wednesday. I work till 8pm tomorrow... Plus I'm almost two hours past Halifax.

haha I would but it'd cost me half what the car is worth just for fuel to haul it up there

How much did the bottom end run you up? And i hear ya about driving a truck. I just put my rims back on so i went back to 10mpg. Cant wait until its warm enough to ride my bike so i can use all that gas money on more mods...lol.

Hah yah I hear ya. Bug jerren to tune you ASAP so you can bring the SS to speed sport. Oh speaking of SS, I was at walmart with the gf yesterday afternoon and parked the car. Noticed some dude walk by and stare at my front SS badge on the grille, he said what does SS stand for? I said super slow, and he believed me and then looked again and said "is that a cavalier?" I just walked away lol

Yeah. Came with all the sensors, coolant hoses, oil pan. I literally just had to bolt the head on and time it. Like an hours worth of work.

damn, i miss working on the cobalt..lol. Took me 2 days just to get my intake manifold off..lol

Haha yeah I think I remember you posting something about that Don't feel bad, took me 18 hours(three separate 6 hour attempts) to do the clutch in my car. Kept having issues with the black plastic bleed screw contraption for the clutch. Had to bolt the transmission in and remove it three times

srt-10

yea i needed to remove the intake manifold to replace my coils and wires. There were 22 bolts holding it down and 21 were pretty much easy to get out. There was one in the very back over the #9 cylinder that is a bitch because its right up against the leg for the manifold. I bought different tools and still couldnt get it out. Finally i grinded my open end wrench and got it out.

Did you just replace the clutch now or was that prior to the enging popping?

Glad I could help man.... And maybe after you get your other block rebuilt I could buy back my spare block !



No Really.... For real !


As for myself... I need to slap my 2.9 back on and get tuned too. But like I was saying. Funds are hard to come by....
