^Awesome! Can't wait. I should be up around 2:30ish.

 

That should work perfect

 

Head is complete! New cams and 78#'s in. Now just waiting on the main bolts and clutch bolts. Going to buy a LNF TOB setup today!

 

the beast will live soon! I'll break in the turbo for you till you break in the motor k?

 

Yah? Do you want your motor to be blown? That is why I spent so much money so I dont do that. But I hate how the Turbo is a paper weight right now. It had to be though, I got a pretty good price on it so couldnt wait! haha

Whats the status on your pump? In route?

 

we can just set the wastegate to 8 or 9 psi I just wanna go pssshhhh lol

haven't gotten an update on shipping probably be here friday

 

Haha yah 8-9 maybe.

Friday.... that sucks! Should have called them and had them ship it via USPS. Probably would have been cheaper too. How much you pay for shipping? 15.00 or 25.00? You got it from ottp right? If you didnt call you def. got boned. ha

holy ****!

 

lol I got it from titan mtorsprts for 113 shipped it was 15 for shipping I think

tyler, is that the spark plug thread? I'm on my phone but that SUCKS!

 

Oh ok, for some reason I thought it was from OTTP.

 

Yeah, I'm wondering if one of the plugs I bought is bad, because I never had any problems before I changed plugs.
And the ceramic in the cylinder sucked hard

 

We gonna figure that **** out today while I'm here.

 

Can't see the last page unless I post... So Im posting....

 

Bwahahaha.

Also, you should come over in an hour or two. Richie and I will be around and I'm not sure what we're doin' tonight.

 

I just put my pistons on to my rods. What a PITA spiral pin lockers are!

 

DRAGON ****

 

we have an appointment next week to take my car to the next level

 

Yes we do. I am excited to feel the pull! hahaha

So has anyone done a Diamond piston install? IDK if it just has to be LSJ or if the 2.2's are the same. I got my spirolox in the pistons (one on each side of the pin) but they gave me 16 in the pack (i used 8 obviously). I was reading that some applications (non eco) take 2 on each side of the pin but it does not look like I can fit another. Anyone know?

 

Sorry no help here at all. I never read into internals in ours yet.

Only advise is pm some knowlegdeable guys on here ans ask lots of questions and do it right.

Just remembered my buddy on here did his own piston install on his Redline. PM Tennpenn83 ans tell him a sent you

 

Since I didnt get a reply for a while I did PM someone. I will PM him too. I think I remember him from the Tucson meet years ago with CIAZ peeps. I raced a redline, I think it was him not sure, inched on him..

 

pm hungryhip-ccp as well

 

what are you doing to your car brett?

 

bretts car is gonna be on drugs!!! meth to be exact his car is gonna need rehab lol

 

So I put my lower part of the block back together (the gurdle as they call it) and pull my new rod bearings out of the pack. Put them on #1 and proceed to oil them. I feel a sharp piece of metal grab my finger and I look and the bearings have significant wear on the top edges. So I look at all of them and they are all the same... Sucks. I ordered them from CED like 4 months ago. I call them up since I need to order my TOB and tell Tom the story. Immediately he said ok I will send replacements at no charge! That is Badass! no questions asked and all. Great customer service! Thanks CED!
