Perkul8r's Rebuild.

Got the head together last night, and now its on the car. Timing is set, and hopefully it will be running by Sunday. Still a little worried. But at least this time i had some good manuals to read if i needed anything.

Its alive!! and it runs great. Was really worried at first, but now its all good. Now i just gotta see why it sometimes grinds going into second when your trying to shift fast. Hopefully maybe just an adjustment. I will be happy as long as its not the trans.

So i am thinking that the grinding going into second is due to a clutch going out. I was driving along today and when i started pulling up a hill to work i gave it some gas and the rpm's went up but the speed didn't move much. So now i am looking for a clutch. Any you guys have one you like/dislike more than another. I am looking for one thats great DD but can still handle a little abuse at the track.

Well, seems as how i haven't updated this much. Finally got some things done to the car. Got my wideband hooked up finally. Been hell trying to get into a muffler shop. Did the egr removal and emissions removal, thanks again for everyones help on trying to figure out why i was running lean. Cant believe i forgot that one plug. Also installed some shifter bushings from MAP. Made the shifts feel alot firmer, still need to pick up the right cables for the shifter. And trying to get a fmic and a DSMlink for tuning. Than gotta save up some money, and get some time to get up to DB and get a tune. Thats gonna be a hell of a long drive. Oh well, it will be worth it.
