I would try adjusting the valve clearance first like B16 said and see how it goes. After that, run a compression test to see if u might of gotten any bent valves. Get back to us and good luck!!!
There should only be one seal on the tranny side and a splash shield to protect the oil seal from outside damage on the shaft side. I'm suspecting maybe the shaft is not fully installed in there. Check to see if the shield on the shaft is touching the tranny that's usually a sign that it's...
U should use your original pipe with that motor, not cuz u have to but it'll also save u a bundle and the headache. Personally I've haven't had problems with the CAI on this swap and yes I've done it before. U mention it had 1/4" difference on the TB and the pipe. They do sell reducing...
Well look here nimblecivic, before we get off on the wrong foot u need to re-read my comments and SUGGESTIONS. What part of my comments was so pessimistic to u? I've never instructed u to not change your EGR valve, all I'm saying is know or ASK how to test components first before u start going...
If u said that u have a nice impact gun, then that should work, or else it's not that nice. U need a gun with more ft/lb of torque or remove the access shield between the tranny and motor to use the flywheel as leverage. They also make a tool where u don't have to rely on the flywheel or the...
Sounds like u got a bad TPS. Check and make sure that it didn't crack or anything during the installation. I've seen people break that off many time because it's close to the firewall. BTW, any codes???
Between u and me, I would do a compression test first before I do anything else. U did say its got a lot of mileage and no CEL. It doesn't cost anything if u have the tool and the amount of $ u already spent guessing what it is are all waste of time. U need to know the component and its...
You can actually boost a little more than 8-10psi for daily driven. With that kind of budget, I would send my block out to get sleeved at AEBS or buy the sleeve and let the machine shop do it if you're not from around the area and get the above internals. It can withstand up to 55psi of boost...
It's marketing if u ask me; Crower has been around for a while now, but only cater to mostly domestic vehicle and barely trying to get in on the import scene. Skunk2 barely got their ears wet but their main focus is imports. Speaking from a business point of view, Crower is trying to buy...
What kind of noise, grinding, popping? I would double check the oil level on that. Remember to check it while the car is idling, put in gear a couple of time to let the torque converter suck in some fluid. Get back to us after you've done that. Good luck!!!
I didn't want to answer this one, but seeing that there's quite few of us seems to understand the air flow theory sort of speak I had to include my .02. In actuality no one really knows unless these conditions (with or without a cat) were performed on a dyno. From working on prototype bus...
What I would suggest is setting your cam gears back to zero and start over from there. If u have a timing gun it would be much easier to see how off you are. You can adjust (advance or retard) your timing by moving the distributor back and forth. Be very careful when trying to adjust your cam...
I don't have those drawings available and since no one with the right computer equipment is willing to respond to u, I'll explain it to u instead. If it's the original dist. cap, there should be a marking or a circle with the letter "C" in the middle. If u locate that mark, that should be...
