Appreciate it.

Forgot to mention this little car made it into a calendar fot january using one of my snow pictures. I should have a pretty wicked valve cover here soon for the "new" engine aswell.

Good stuff, looks like you are enjoying your application!

I enjoy the chassis alot, i'll enjoy it more if the new engine doesn't sound like the last with it's indian rain dance going on in the block.

Kinda limited on days i can put the engine in, but soon enough.

As promised........

Insert lonely island jizz in my pants video here

I Appreciate it, wish i had money to paint my bay like orignally planed but ohwell.

that's pretty frickin' cool.

Thanks hopefuly it will run half as good as it will look.

That is damn nice...

If my valve cover wasn't going to be hidden by a IC, i'd offer you money to paint mine!

I wish I had your painting skills. Very nice!

I can not take credit for anything but the idea, i wanted something rough/tough to match the car, lets be honest for what i use it for it would do no good being a "pretty" car as that would last a week tops.

This was actually my second idea first was a urban camo, but due to the ribs on the top it was hard to get a hard line. I'm around alot of people i shine at body work and mechanical, the only air brushing i've done was back in college when i was taking a 1yr program for autobody.

At the moment i'm looking for a better job as the last guy i worked for did me and alot up here dirty and left over night, big mess. Anyway if i can get one soon expect a sprayed 7A.

Dale calhoun did the VC.

Got the engine in this past sunday worked on it from 4:30'ish to 8 ran out of light.
sunday

Most recent.




I know i need to pressure wash the bay but needs to run first.Also deleted the factory tb spacer deal and ported the tb awhile back.

Cars been up and running for awhile now. Gobbs more power (For what is is), still goes anywhere ground clearance permitting.

Whats the minimal compression numbers on the 7a's? just need the minimal numbers nothing else at this time, i figure 140psi would be close to minimum factory specs due to the CR for the engine.

Read that 142psi is minimum so time to start diagnosing this engine tomorrow. Hope its valve stem seal issues.

Selling it?

Compression Pressure:
1.8L (7A-FE) ....................................... 191 psi (13.4 kg/cm)

Minimum Compression Pressure ........... 142 psi (10.0 kg/cm)

Maximum Variation Between Cylinders .. 14 psi (1.0 kg/cm)

Yeah maybe, got to figure out oil smoke issue now. Oils straight up pouring out of two exhaust ports after a 5sec start up starts dripping out of #1 like water.

You see it on CL?


Found that, i'll use precentage instead though for variance always have. Appreciate it though.

I was looking at parts and how could you miss that airbrush work.
