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? -
What do you guys think?

Scooby, I sent you a PM. -
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!!!
-
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...
-
Anything that was had an auto attached to it or after 85-86. These motors will all have hydrolic lifters and thus, bigger valves.
-
Where besides CCR can I get rebuilt engines?

PMed you about the coupe...
-
Try taking one of your lugnuts off and setting it on the seat of the wheel. They fit on my enkeis...
-
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.
-
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?
-
Get these!!! Im gonna get some if the wagon ever moves under its own power...
-
Ben, don't we both have a set of those wheels?!?!?

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! -
