The GVR4 variant is just like the 90, they're on the unfiltered side, but without the bottom port for an oil pressure gauge sender (also unfiltered but I don't have one to trace the exact path; going by the casting and what it suggests)The "turo feed", assuming that was Turbo feed, is...

Jesus, Marty, glad you're safe. If you need an expanding foam for around stuff that can potentially ignite, use a fire block foam.I used this whenever I was making holes right through the top plate of a wall that I didn't have access to both sides of. My walls are filled with Roxul mineral...

Lucky you. I'm doing cloud security for a Fortune-whatever company. Been in InfoSec for 16 years, do not enjoy it. but it pays the bills. If you're doing something you feel you should be doing and love it, all the better. I'm envious and I have no idea what that actually feels like.. doing...

Realized today I have the GVR4 air cooled OFH that came with this Evolution GVR4 motor, so I have one 1/8 BSP and one 3/8 BSP port for attachments. I don't have the spare 1/8 BSP on the bottom as the 90 OFHs have. Wanting to keep the idiot light, aftermarket oil pressure gauge sender...

Adjust your BISS to fix the ISCPosition It took 1:22 to go from 30 to 10? I'd say that's successful. I don't even test that high and I generally look for 1:30 from 25 to 10. After that, the less pressure, the longer it should take until you're bored and you call it good.

The problem is we never really know for absolute certain.. we have to kind of trust that it will pick up what it should when it should. We don't have a 100% controlled, repeatable test bench. Marty's suggestion could very well work. RawKnock may or may not show, depending on when you rapped on...

Do you have another set of injectors you could borrow?Pointless anecdote: I've had a warm very random misfire ever since I went 2g ecu and fic-750s in my 1g. Now that I have a 2g, it's the same situation since I have a 6 bolt. It followed me across generations. Wasn't sure if it was green top...

Cleaned some shit up, that's about it.

Very nice colour. I might use it to show the peeps building our walnut epoxy river table what colour we are aiming for :)

Leviton tamper proof outlets, which are code here for anything reachable by kids, are an annoying design, for sure. And I've had one leviton face detach from the body on a 20A outlet. For my install rate between our two houses (at different times) ive had about a 2% failure rate, which isn't...

We have shit for charging infrastructure here but EV will likely be the next car we own after my cx5 gives up. I don't drive that much so my gas costs are maybe 150-200/month. EV would add an extra 800 at least, due to financing and then whatever it costs to install a charger here. We have a...

If I had more than one I'd get neither done. I need to concentrate on one thing at a time.Whilst I'm not doing the work (need to concentrate on one thing at a time, and this summer is getting the car running), dealing with contractor quotes on a fence and back deck. The fun of a new house...

Cleaned up my OFH and removed the dummy light sensor and the pipe doped brass fitting. Now I own a propane torch, yay!

I just did my basement as some have seen.I deal with Leviton for outlets and basic switches.Lutron Caseta smart dimmers as they integrate easily with home assistant and you can block their home station from the internet and not lose their control ability in local automationEaton breakers...

Just watch the fingers on the pressure plate before you put the trans back on. If they're totally flat, you're likely still going to have a problem and it's potentially a fat disc causing the issue. Otherwise, the last variable is a bad pressure plate.

Windows tablets are handy, I'm told. But to get one that runs link is about as expensive as a small netbook-style thing (do they even call them that anymore?) and you gain a keyboard.

The reason is in the very first post of this thread, in bold.

Works very well. I used with a 0.023 welding tip as hinted by the ecmlink page for setting up BCS. No issues there.

np. It's what I used when I first started using SD "back in the day"

Oil on the intake side like that is common when there's no catch can and the PCV is routed directly to the IM. That's why we install catch cans. Poorly made cans with no baffles or catch material that can condense oil vapour is almost as bad. Valve stem seals leak down the valve but don't blow...

I'd potentially order two, if you can budget it. Every set I get is damaged in some way. Knicks and gouges on a bearing surface seems to matter not to ACL quality control, especially when they jam them together during packaging. I thought Australia had more pride in their work than that.

Feels like there's a story there...

For a std size crank and they actually have stock, not just a product listing? Good god where? King has been telling @DSSA that stock will be ready in "6 months" for the last few years, so long that he's basically given up expecting anything. "4-6 weeks" availability on MAPerformance has been...

The issue is few manufacturers make or have old stock of bearings left for 4g63s, especially 6bolts. I just went through the spiel with @DSSA on this recently -- the only thing you can really get now is ACL Tri Metal, and even then there's dwindling stock left in the USA, so you better act...

😈

I say that every time I pass the Oreos when shopping for groceries

That's awesome, I had no idea. I'm green with envy. Well, of that, and the colour. It's so beautiful it kinda hurts.I have an Evolution GVR4 long block and head, so I think that cover belongs over here LOL

So what's the 'AMG' part? I'm curiousToday.. I actually did stuff. First baby steps. Tested out the new 5gal parts washer with some simple green, cleaning the oil pump housing. Spent over an hour scraping the gasket off the OFH. Decided I need a torch if I'm removing any of the fittings on it...

Let's just say that high z injectors get sprinkled with magical fairy dust. That's what makes them better.Srsly

ah prosport evo gauges. aka the gauge you can't read in sunlight. I know, I have two. I'm thinking of breaking them open and reducing the LED resistances just to get some more brightness from them. I have short and long hoods going on as well but just for good measure..

I had the upper vent method myself for a while but I made my own plate out of 1/8" Lexan and painted the screws black. Cheap and saved me from faux carbon fiber. Perhaps I should have cut vent holes in the middle, but I didn't have A/C and didn't drive in the winter, so an open window moved more...

I've been reading that the latest version of the app is causing problems (ie. not running/running well). 3.36.73 is the sweet spot still. Are you able to get that one? I have the Windows installer if you need it.

First, with those kind of numbers, I'd do a compression test on another engine you know is at least reasonably good. That way you can validate the tester itself. A valve can be partially open and still give you better than 0. Zero is catastrophic failure territory and unrelated to fuel wash.It...

That's better than the other direction the fork end could be, yes. That's also why a taller step is better than a shallower step. If it was shallower, the fork end would be to the left as the pp fingers would be flatter. Think of it this way: as the pp, clutch disc, and the friction surfaces all...

Looks like balancing maks made with a die grinder to me. I'd ask if it was checked for straightness too as you don't know where it came from. What the numbers there are It's hard to say how much without a good pic comparing adjacent lobes. It could be only a few tenths of a gram of the very...

A leaky slave or masterIncorrect Flywheel hub thickness (too thin) which allows the tob to rest too close to the blockToo fat of a clutch disc (or too shallow of step) causes pp surface to bias to the left, pp fingers to bias to the right/flatten, tob moves towards the block, fork end to the...

1000s will do that HP goal on pump fine. 1000 isn't even large anymore. Just get good quality injectors that are tried, tested, and validated by the community to operate well on short pulse widths (idle). In the early days they used to be finicky.

I love a good porch. Nice to sit on and have a beer in the evening.

Are you taking about the flat spots?

I used my old ARP turbo bolts. A little long, many washers, but it worked. Until the machine shop didn't return them :(

That's so much nicer. I might steal this idea for my 2G.

Keepers can be reused. Ive never heard the opposite in nearly 16 years. Then again Im not on Facebook, maybe that's where it started?Keepers are just little chunks of metal that prevent the valve from pulling through the retainer, as you know. I've never seen one deformed enough to allow the...

When I have to pull mine, there's always one side that just doesn't want to give. Over and over and over.. and then suddenly, be it angle or sudden force, it just comes out with practically no effort and I'm left wondering WTF was the big effort.. Never an answer it gives me.Paul's explanation...

And in typical ACL fashion, quality control is shit Something knicked the shaft, then they installed it, and it scratched the inner bore. Also, WTF, did they miss the mark drilling the oiling hole in the shaft the first time?Also, the drive gear shaft is damn tight on the bore. It doesn't even...

Wow you can really tell the difference.. I figure the pump I pulled off my most recent motor (that I didn't build) may have been OEM because the oil passages look deep and lovelyThe pump I took off my motor I built back in 2012 was a Melling, I think. Helical gears and passages were much...

Popped open the oil pump that came with the car and found these guys.. Also, still need to measure, but the pump looks good visually

It's the other way around. The further the PP friction surface is inwards to the flywheel due to the step height being too great or the clutch disc being too worn/thin, the further the TOB moves away from the pressure plate due to the fingers moving the opposite direction. That causes the push...

Didn't I remind you to check before install? :p My new act streetlite, produced in the past 6 months if I recall seeing the sticker, measured out .608-.609. Don't psyche me out here.. I have a v2 ceramic 6 puck going in, I don't need no drag.

And your step was correct? weird. Only thing I can think of then is either the ball or fork is worn, the fork is bent, or the PP fingers aren't sticking out as far as they need to due to manufacturing error. Either that or your clutch disc is too fat causing the fingers to retract further inward...
