Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
If the head checks out and has happened a couple times now, maybe the block needs to be checked out. Good luck, hope it's back together soon.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
Sucks to hear man, hopefully you get it all fixed up soon.
Keep on going, you'll get it running soon again! |
Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
Top timing cover or lower? I have a lower one I've got to sell if you'd be interested.
Sucky to hear about your bad luck! At least you sound like you're already taking it apart and trying to get it back on the road quickly! |

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
Back to the 50s car show was last weekend. Got some new stuff for the car.
Same s.s. radiator hose kit I have I. The evo 3. Was 48.00 http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...psb7b1abb3.jpg New radiator same as a afco unit. This one is just a bit taller an has a cap on it. Will have to make my own lower core support for it but it is no big deal. Got the fan with it for free and got a extra 25.00 since it was the last one. Show price was 200.00 w/o the fan. Got it for 175.00 with it. http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...ps6e07a85d.jpg http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...pscb1557dc.jpg http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...ps4aa80352.jpg Also picked up a set of thin wheel spacers for the set of rims I got as part of a trade. Just will need them for when I put on a set of brembos. Here are the rims I got in part of a trade. They are in good shape just need a good polishing. Will be used for winter rims. Sold an cat back for 300.00 and the rims. http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o...ps545425af.jpg |
Re: after 10 years its coming back to life

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
Nice, so gosh assembled it for you?

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
He did since I dropped it off when it was cold out still and did not to do it in a cold garage since it was orignaly going to be a few weeks to get it done. But Owell I did not have to spend the time now doing it. All I had to do is plug the 5 extra holes in the block and slap the head on it.
Still need a few parts for it. Water pump Timing belt Catch can set up if the valve cover sitting on it right now will clear the hood Hood pins when I cut out the core support for the new radiator. Would also like to make a 4" cold intake to replace the 3" cold intake I made already. |
Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
And you keep stealing parts off the Evo to do it. That poor intake seeing another car.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
The evo will be rebuilt better than it was.

Re: after 10 years its coming back to life
Little bit more done to it today. Also found my non rad cap upper housing. Pulled out the 2 extra water out let's on the lower housing. Just need to get 2 1/8 plugs for them now.
