  2. But Im sure we can mod the cross over pipe a little. Ya know,stock diameter, but equal length? Im gonna try this with all you guys since I need a new engine anyway.
  3. I need a 79 and 84 parts manuals. the ones with the part numbers in them. anyone got one?
  4. So the consensous is that the TD04 will have bad low end, but good top end power? Tex would you agree? Cams (or in my case, singular) would help build low end boost?
  5. I asked about injectors a long time ago and the consensus was that EA82T and EA81T injectors are identical. I wouldn't go with MPFI just because they are lower flowing... probably
  6. thanks Ben, didnt know you knew so much about rebuilt engines? j/k. I think Im gonna try to get a CCR short block and put the top end on myself. CCR long blocks are 'spensive! $1000 for EA81T!!!
  7. I was in a hurry and didnt really feel like all that dribble. the turbo heads are a no brainer because THEY ALL HAD AUTOS! I guess I just neglected to mention the stick part. The valves would be a few mm's larger, I think. Don't hold me to that...
  8. Anything that was had an auto attached to it or after 85-86. These motors will all have hydrolic lifters and thus, bigger valves.
  9. Where besides CCR can I get rebuilt engines?
  10. Try taking one of your lugnuts off and setting it on the seat of the wheel. They fit on my enkeis...
  11. The firing order is correct, and it is hard to start at any timing setting (Dad and I tried a bunch). Not sure about the knock sensor, but I am sure the engine wouldn't run this bad with it unplugged, but I dont think I ever unplugged it.
  12. Pretty sure my baby has a knocking rod. painful sound everytime she turns over! How can I tell for sure? (Im 90% sure) Any links to good discriptions?
  13. Get these!!! Im gonna get some if the wagon ever moves under its own power...
  14. Buy not having the hose rubbing on that protrusion or touching a hot engine.
  15. I know the Intake housing would have to be rotated, but it would also make the setup mor reliable. I say rotate it and use a homemade custom mount for the wastegate.
  16. I meant if the turbo could be rotated, then a custom hose might be needed. what exactly about the wastegate makes the turbo not able to be rotated?
  17. I was just thinking, to avoid the intercooler to turbo hose from contacting the engine stuff, why not just align the turbo differently? Just a thought, however a custom hose may be necessary...
  18. Ben, don't we both have a set of those wheels?!?!?
  19. NO, its not running yet, but it is sputtering a tiny bit! Im also getting only 2 codes now instead of 4!!! Need a test ECU!!!
  20. turns out the front plug on the ECU was plugged in, but the rear one wasnt. God, I hate it when stuff like that happens!
  21. Im following the FSM's trouble shooting tree. I think its best to work front to back.
