what do you mean by that>?
Have you read this thread?!?! That is what every single person in this thread has told you. 3 are from professional shops. Instead you are listening to a unemployed engineer who started working on cars out of his garage to get by. :confused:

Dude...just get a 6bolt. I'm by no means a professional shop person but i do have a 2g 7bolt GSX. If she ever goes or develops C.W. i'm sure's hell not gonna rebuild it. What's keeping you from just getting a 6 bolt and doing it right? What's tieing you to that 7 bolt so much? You can find 6 bolt blocks for a couple/few hundred bucks or so. And if you do stick with a 7bolt, don't rebuild yours. Somebody here has probably got one laying in their garage for cheap. Buy that until you can get a 6 bolt. If you think you can save alot of money by rebuilding this one, you're mistakenly wrong. By the time you buy rod bearings, cam bearings, gasket kits, honing services, decking and who the hell else know what, you'll have hundreds and hundreds into it. Just going the el cheapo way and throwing a thrust bearing, etc.. in it and putting it back in the car isn't worth the time. Might as well then take the 50 trim off it, put it back to stock and drive it unabused and hope she lasts. I guess it doesn't pay to ask people for advice if you're just gonna do what you wanna do anyway. People wouldn't say to get a 6bolt if they didn't mean it.

HA! Just fucking forget it guys. This kid obviously doesnt want or need advice, he is looking for reassurance that he wont get. Either that or he is dumber than shit. Let him learn with his wallet if that is what he wants to do.

If that one falls through, I have about 4 sitting here, Short blocks for rebuilding.

Yep, I have a short block that just needs pistons. It wouldn't hurt to check the bearings either, but they should be ok.

Hi Jet- For my own knowledge and future. You could use a 7bolt head on a 6 bolt block, correct?? I was gonna get a long block from a guy one time and he had the head disassembled. About 5 or 6 out 16 valve guides were cracked which further changed my mind on doing the project.

And, what do you do as far as the knock sensor goes? I have dsmlink. Is there a place for the knock sensor on a 6 bolt in back of the engine?

Thanks.

just making sure, i don't need DSM Link correct? cuz you can mod a few things and use parts from your 2g to make it work without having to get DSM Link - i know in the near future i will be getting DSM Link, but for now i know for a fact i can't afford it. what should i expect when i get this car back - i know she'll run good. but as for knocking and detonation and everything, it should be fine without the DSMlink, correct? for all u out there who don't know, i just put an order in for a 6-bolt engine needing rebuilding - ya got me, ok! now i just need help on what to expect when we rebuild this bad motha trucka.
