Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

I never took my car, I couldn't get it to stall.
Going to take it apart to see if I can find any more boost leaks, but I didn't find any when i did the BLT, it would fall steady to 10psi and then hold.
Going to do some other things, but if not I can get a refund on my IPT restalled converter and just throw a stocker in for now.

yeah it blows, hopefully I'll get some time this weekend to figure it out.
I picked up some new couplers from MAP today on teh way in to work, but it will give me a chance to get my quick release bumper kit installed.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

I probably had some couplers you coulda used.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Blah! Sorry man, stay on it!

September 29 -- Saturday Fun Race

Acceptable helmets are the Snell 2000 and Snell 2005. Please also remind your fellow racers to check their helmets as well!! Thanks.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Bman I'll hit you up. I'd like some longer lengths and map only has 4" sections. (I know I shouldn't need longer)

Pat i have all track days in my phone already. I'll probably take the car stalling or not. Hopefully this weekend I get some time, I have some other things to do with the car also. I might have a line on a car pc too..

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Ha, I picked up a few couplers down there myself today. Time to get my pile on the road again.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Swing by if you are out cruising. Thanks Bman for giving me some long couplers and a great idea to test the FMIC system in my car.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Car is fixed, WG was not hooked up. I was kneeling down looking in the engine bay and I spotted it.

Car fucking moves and I can't hold it still to launch it.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Awsome glad you got it fixed. I thought you got a vac pumpo for the brakes?

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Wooooo!!!!!

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Come to Rockfalls tomorrow if you are bored!!! We will probably be getting there around 9-9:30.

If all goes well and the car stays together we will be running on the 29th as well... Thats when I'm going to run the bike.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

I have national guard this weekend and I work the 29th. Going to try and make 22nd at grove creek.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Just put a fucking 5 speed in it already!

There is how many people in MN with auto's and how many of them work properly?

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Glad to hear it was an easy fix! Good luck at the track

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Because we all know how great DSM 5-spd's are...

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Swapping transmissions is dumb, this car was $200 and less than $1000 to get running with link. I want to be done with DSMs and I am not planning on buying another.

It works now, come out tonight we can dig.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Your looks like it shifted good.

Yeah I know just a thought!

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

So looks like I spun a bearing. Time to build a motor or find a junkyard one.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

That sucks and I just sold my extra shortblock to Mark.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Oh man that sucks! Let me know if you need anything.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Damn!

I have a good crank and block if you are wanting to go forged internals. :)

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Eff.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Thanks man, I'm sure I'll hit you up.

Please PM me with some more info.

not all bad, a bit disappointing, but after 7 yrs I can get back into a stroker and stop pissing with tired, leaky, stock motors.

Hoping to just build a motor and get it running solid, no other plans to upgrade anywhere else. I'll start a thread soon and get some input on building a 2.3.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

That sucks big time man :(

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Dame mang.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Sucks, but excellent opportunity to go stroker!

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

:(

This happen saturday?

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

That sucks. Time to build a solid stroker motor.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Ouch. :(

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

I am probably going to be parting out my silver car, the engine in that one is great. 2.4l, wiseco 8.8:1, eagle rods, ARP mains that are dowel pinned and align honed, majorly ported head (my first wild port and not my best work, but it seems to work fine) with Wiseco 415's, 1mm oversized valves on both sides, etc. Made 460awhp at DB on an SCM61 with the small exhaust housing and stock intake manifold.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

There you go, same shortblock as mine, makes big smiles every minute I drive it. The 2.3 is great but ends up being more expensive unless you're doing all new parts anyways.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Plan as of this moment is 2.3, Wiseco HD & howard HD rods.

Something would have to come along at quite a deal for me to shift because I don't want to own a motor wishing it had this and that.

Since the pistons would be custom order I'd be stuck putting it together after the snow flies so I'm not in a hurry.

Re: Big Brown's Automagic - The last episode in my DSM story.
 

Those HD pistons are nice, good choices.

If money becomes an issue and you're still open to options, I remember the Mahle's being priced pretty well when compared to the competition back when I got my motor built.
