Qman Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 First, you'd search... then, you'd install an equal length header then cams. No other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairtax4me Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 No over-bore with dome top pistons option guys? There are only two ways to get torque without going force fed. 1. better airflow (intake, cam, header/exhaust mods) 2. more displacement (bore over to fit bigger pistons, and/or different crankshaft for a longer stroke) You can guess which one is easier.

Fuzpile Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Definitely out of topic. Curiously, I have an EJ22 and had a "tap" at warmup. I wouldn't call it a "rod knock" Might be hydraulic lifters on this because something would change with heat. Was all set up to get into it but changed oil to Valvoline Max-Life. The oil had changed to a semi-synthetic (it was good before with my 280k mi truck). For some reason it freed up that lifter. Purolator Pure One filter didn't hurt when they were on sale together with the oil. No leaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 If its an Ej22 it's probably a lifter. Unless for some reason you ran it with no oil. X2 Valvoline Maxlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97ej22 Posted July 24, 2010 Author Share Posted July 24, 2010 Yea its probably a lifter tap bc its faint and from what every one is saying...but I got stp oil stabilizer and haven't put it in yet...think it will help? Oh and thanks for the help and not assuming I suck at driving...and again off topic but anyone who remembers my shift linkage problems it just fixed itself...not questioning it but still plan on haveing it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
