Re: Project!

If I have any advice for any of you working on this motor/car. Do not cut corners to try to save money. DSMs are unreliable as it is, if you cut corners to try to save a buck you will regret it down the road.

Also don't be affraid to have someone come and show you things like how to do a timing belt ect. That is one thing if done wrong can set you back a lot of money.

Steve Hill showed me how to do it the right way the first time. I paid him to show me once and I now its a piece of cake.

If you are going to use used stock parts from other cars, make sure you know the quality and condition of them.

In regards to Chris from Brookdales suggestion about the gasket set. He is right, use all new gaskets even if its costs a bit more and you have some extra left over. Don't re-use gaskets.

Good luck.
