Thread opened!!

GMR head install now included.

Enjoy

 

The exhaust springs are such a bioch to change with the head on the car

 

They sure are. I liked installing the springs on the bench much better.

 

update looks great man, thank you so much for taking the time and effort to do it. really helps noobs like me get a feel for what we're getting ourselves into! :

 

Ur welcome buddy!!

It's not as detailed as the cam install "how to", but that's because the build book helps so much, and doesnt really miss anything.

Follow the book, my tips, and you should be good to go.

 

heellz yeah maine. definately have read that book a few times now haha.

 

It's pretty simple

Edit: CPS can bite me

 

Meh, that's not bad either. Just need to ignore the build book for that part.

 

I think it would be easier to do with the end cap off. Last time I was doing it with the cap on so I would get it timed right then go to shove it in and be blind for an inch or so

 

Hmm, never thought about doing it that way.

 

Bump

All that hard work updating this thread, and barely any converstation. Is anyone other than riceburner installing a cylinder head, or are intakes still the only cool bolt on mod to do? Lol

 

I finished mine a while ago. I'm currently piecing my car back together, slowly. This weather is horrible if you don't have a heated garage.

 

excellent job on the update and work done on the car. i dont think i seen a vid of the car running, have you had the chance to record one yet? sorry, i have been busy with work and in my free time i have been installing my latest order from zzp. i am hoping to put on a pnp head, and tvs by summer. so this info will definately help.

 

I'm glad this will be of some help to you

I have videos of the car before all this work, but no current ones in you tube format.

I don't drive my car in the winter, so videos will have to wait until spring.

 

What stage comp cams did you use? & were the #75 valve springs the only ones for the ecotec to use?

 

S1 cams.

Nope, Supertech also offers 76# springs and 94# springs for the ecotec.

They used to offer 78# springs, but I havent seen them for sale in a while.

The 75# springs are more than enough for a high rpm build.

 

bump, may need to use this tonight

 

I am excited!!!!

 

Use it up, and good luck man

 

Waiting for vids :P

 

Soon

 

heres a few vids of mine!

ported head, but zzp stg2 cams, similar anyway

once again, great work on the how to, would not have been able to do it without!

 

Nice vids buddy!

Glad my thread helped
