I thought you were going to build your spare head and swap it?

 

no, im keeping the head im using already.

that spare head needs work, and its not that the cam caps are labled, tim never gave me some, alot are duplicates, and just random ones he through into a box

like i have 6-7 intake caps, and only 3-4exhuast. so idk. i was planning on running the same head im running now.

 

I was just wondering how your going to get your springs and retainers on with the head still on. I've heard people can do it but it sounds like a real bitch to do it that way.

 

hmmmm lol.

hadn't anticipated pulling me head off. idk, im fine with puttin everything else together but i was planning on kyle(sohc4now) helping me with the head work, since im pretty unexperianced with it

 

Thats why I was asking. I figured you were going to pull the head and install the new stuff and maybe relap the valves. If thats the case you'll need a new head gasket. Cosworth head gaskets are only 135$ at phase2.

 

yea, ill see what he says. if we end up removing the head then ill be getting a new HG. which sucks because the cometic only has about 15k on it lol

 

Cleaned it.

 

and yes, the motor is the right way.


Waiting on Technosquare tune... Hopefully I'll be breaking her in within the next week or so.

 

Eric and everyone who is interested in doing this event: do the desoto event in December first for practice to get used to the drifting thing, Theres PLENTY of run off at Tropicana field but if its 3rd gear entry you might want some practice so you can at LEAST do top of 2nd entry and not shave a lot of speed like a little girl.. If you go to desoto in December I'll show you. Its going to be a competition feel event, so it wont be so stressful drifting in front of a lot of people.

Dan - do ettt

 

Springs & retainers are no problem with the head on, air hold adapter to the spark plug hole hooked to an air compressor, proceed as usual.
