So i did a compression test today.
cold results were # 1-4, 140, 145, 140, 150

Tomorrow i'm going to do a leak down test.

I plan on picking up a complete longblock within the next month and rebuilding it just for fun, and a spare motor.

I've been doing random little things to the ride.
I fixed the smoking, it was a blown turbo seal. there was a compressor side that came with the car. so i cleaned it up,put it on and its good so far.

I cleaned all the oil out of the ic piping/intercooler.
reloated the maf because it was pinchine a vacuum line were it was.
took off the lower timing belt cover and cleaned in there.
hooked up a oil pressure and boost gauge, re did allot of wiring were the radio goes (it was a complete mess), hooked up a deck
re did allot of vacuum lines.
put three different pcv valves on because they were al shit.

allot of little things that i get anal about.


Things still on the list-

-all new tb components
-new dp
-new o2 wiring
-alternator, possibly saturn
-more vacuum lines
-mbc
-gm maf/maf translator
-lc1 wideband
-datalogger
-some kind of headstuds
-new lifters
-catch can

picking up a longblock to rebuild for 200 bucks.

as of right now, i just want to do a stock rebuild, .20 over.

did you just put your wideband in the o2 bung? i thought it should be like 17-28" from the o2 housing or something like that.
