Well, we've been talking about it for a couple months at the Izzy's meets. here it is.
Dyno----Day-----July 21,2007-----Saturday 9:00 am $50 for 3 pulls with air/fuel ratio!!!!!!!!!!!! we get a great deal at HORSEPOWER CONNECTION in Olympia. Come on down and have a great time...... See his new shop, and WHO'S GOT WHAT to the GROUND!!!!!!!! Hopefully someone will be able to bring his car thats been SITTING FOR OVER A YEAR!!!!!! We will meet at Izzy's Pizza parking lot between 8:30 and 9. leave there at 9 and cruise over together the couple blocks to make a great showing. so lets get a list going so we know who is coming..... kettlman |
i dont think that a car that has been sitting over a year should do pulls without being broken in. i volunteer to drive it b and f across chinook till it is broken (in).

I thought the FD had a blown engine (or at least a poorly running one).
would be cool if Z could make it (maybe he can?). I doubt I will make this but it would be nice to see what type of numbers my $300 special volvo puts down. |

I doubt I will make this but it would be nice to see what type of numbers my $300 special volvo puts down. yeah, the fd has a toasted engine in the bay, and a rebuilt street ported 13 brew on the stand.... i just cant get them swapped because i keep getting to do neat projects like paint the garage, revamp the underground sprinklers, rebuild the door on the back of the rental mobile home (oops, manufactured housing), and go to family bd parties in cda when i would rather be engine swapping. i even sort of planned to do an all weekender to get this done but got waylaid by bday party and ripping furniture out of the house so chem dry can clean carpets.... i may finally have to break down and pay somebody to do the work. i think it would cost me more to get the motor swapped than you paid for the turbo brick!!! where is the justice in that? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif oh, back on topic. i want to have the motor in in time to get to the dyno.... it isn't really a rebuild per se as the motor that i bought that was supposed to have a bad seal only had a carbon locked apex seal.... finally one goes my way! anyway, i shouldn't have to do 4K of break in, wouldn't 1K be allright before tossing it on the dyno? |
run high octane (duh) and put some mmo in the tank for good measure, should be fine I would imagine.

Hey John you may want to do the water in the intake steam cleaning thing as well. If its got lots of carbon that will definately help.
