Second pic...all it took to get it to stay running was a lil timing adjustment!

Oh yea, and a healthy dose of 93 octane smoothed it out too!

Not as long as me!



I need to adjust the idle some more, get more coolant, and a lil more oil...my system filled itself nicely and I think that the oil cooler alone holds 1qt...



I've got some more mods i wanna do before driving it on a regular basis though...and I still need to get the BOV welded up..

And get a REAL battery! Leave the liquid cells for old ladies...go Optima or your Favorite Similar Brand https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif I just saw that.

Rotaryman88 09-16-2003 10:22 PM

Hey, i had quakerstate around...if its good enough for my dads hemi, its good enough for me!



Anyways, I have smoothed out the idle some but still needs work. I'm gonna get a BOV welded up next, then upgrade the radiator, then start on my custom fuel setup...





the new EMS install is gonna be fun too, but I wanna make sure tha tthe motor runs good on the stock ECU first...

who does #2 WORK FORRRRRRRRRRRR??????

Rotaryman88 09-17-2003 04:29 PM

Yea, i posted the pics for a reason!





In preparation for hurricane isabel that is supposed to hit us pretty hard on the east coast(my area especially) i had to clean up everything..so all the tools are taken away, etc.



The pen was used to right down ideas i had while i worked on the car..and for my FMIC writeup i'll be doin sometime...



Oh yea, that fan is um..from a engine swap done a lil while ago..it was left over from the "cough***saturn*** cough"...but it fit good and pulls MAD air compared to the stocker...i'll be getting rid of it shortly though for a 16" black magic and a K2RD radiator setup.
