    Nick, the manifold bolts may need tightened or go get some intake gaskets and drive over here. most likely a vac leak though. start spraying carb cleaner at different spots. youll find it

    that is a beautiful wagon!

    i suggest putting in a 5 speed. its a project, but worth it. do your homework on the ej swap, and maybe put an ej trans in too. this will be very involved

    bad alt

    textbook lifter tick.....research and address

    just pokin ya....and one more, before we put this thread down: a stock, non abandoned brat, correctly cared for and not modded/improved/messed with. will not only 100% be better than that chevy...trust me, experience here, but get twice the mgs or more doing it. and more females to boot. all this aside i realize your bomber isnt most of those things so i fully support the chevy decision in your case. you said shut up lol...thats a challenge in my book. let us know when you get back to her, we"ll be waiting RV

    yyyaaaaayy

    its possible but id be surprised if a ea71 would make 120hp, even forced. anything is possible with adaptor kits or custom bellhousings. If youre asking if the stock trans will hold it, for awhile, if youre nice. I know guys with ej engines running gen 2 4speeds still

    run 12 volts to the fan with your favorite two pieces of wire from the battery to the fan side of the connector

    .......................i do have an ea82t running 15psi on a crate in my garage, complete w dash, and harness tmic, 4" one piece exhaust etc. built at a local race shop. Even though I say this, its alot of work.....also suuuuper loud, so not really a sleeper

    first things first, welcome! second, PICS! we love pics as for your gutlessness, you are on the right track with the tune up. 87 is a fuzzy year, is yours FI or carby? clogged cat will rob power on both but theres other info specific to both. since you mentioned the "stovepipe" ill assume its a carbed engine. Rebuild, or replace, or at the very least clean out that carb. lots of folks go for a weber 36/32 variant as a very effective upgrade. That pipe is there to draw air warmed by the exhaust to the intake for cold starts...kinda warms it up faster. It doesnt actually carry any exhaust gasses. not a big deal if its gone. As far as sleeper goes.....research EJ swaps. basically the engine from a legacy or something of that nature. egr light: programmed to come on every x amount of miles thus prompting an inspection/service of the system. hth p.s. kudos to you, new guy for finding the search function when so many others have not

    in my experience with this method, which is getting up there, ive seen a variety of time needed. it seems the more overheated the engine got, the more warped the heads are, the moer time you spend fixing em. after i hydrolocked and ruined my old bottom end i resurfaced the heads again in preperation for new block in it took around 10-15 minutes each. those same heads took hours the first time i did them after having bad hgs for months on end. If you can fit your thumbnail in the crack between the valves on any EA series engine, thats too big. otherwise put em back on. I feel that it is the duty of the machine shop to research any head in question and see things like, i dunno, factory bulletins about things of this nature

    dont make me call that bluff, id like a twin for my gl hatch
  20. Subruise
    you deliver....
  21. Subruise
    pull the tubes out. then blow air back through them. no matter how hard you try you cant get a bowling ball through a funnel, but you can get it unstuck by reversing flow though
  22. Subruise
    Dude, that was deep
  23. Subruise
    it was an RS, not an RX. 2wd 3at, rear drums. Grey bumpers w red stripes. if I can find pics ill get the plate number
  24. Subruise
    i dont, sold it last summer. who on bogs green earth would ever convert to the worst trans ever on a car with 140k on it? only thing worse than a 3at is a 2wd 3at ...sorry for the tangent folks
  25. Subruise
