Damn, great job on the times though :) Hopefully you get the flywheel sorted soon.

Took the transmission out yesterday to inspect and the flywheel loosened up messed up my crank and flywheel. So now I’m in need of a crankshaft and new flywheel.

This first plot is of the car running good notice the knock level. This was from my “moderate” test run #3 and it was a 10.0 run at 127. Then on the last run when the flywheel is loose, this run was a 10.0 at 150mph.

Shitty. I almost didn't notice the difference until I looked at the scale on the left, goddamn! Hopefully you can get it back together by Proving Grounds!
Super Bleeder!!

I should have no problem attending the MAP event with the car. Thanks to MAP for getting me a QM flywheel with ring gear installed asap and to 95Talonracer for the crankshaft! I ordered all of the necessary parts when I finished the diagnostics. It also damaged the main timing gear and the factory crank dampener too. I took the old crank out yesterday and installed the freshly balanced and polished OEM crank. The old crank doesn’t look bad, it could be used again, but will need some rnr to true up the end surface. I came to find out that the crank press pin that I ordered from Mitsu was incorrect….So I need a crank to flywheel pin before I can get the car running. I still put the motor in today, with no trans. It will be easier to correctly torque the flywheel with the motor in the car. I just hope all goes well this week!

You are a fukin rip! I'm very very impressed how you got everything back together so quickly, nice work! Got any carnage pics?

Also, did you have to yank the motor completely apart or did you just yank the timing components, pull the oil pan off and leave the pistons in the block?
