Thanks Rick, but after 4 hours messing with the coolant lines and trying to get the right size lines I finally got it. So I had toubles with that stupid ass block fitting from tuner toys. I thought that was a direct fit. Guess it wasn't. So I just jbwelded that **** and lets hope I dont get any leaks. Intercooler piping and mounting took me about 5 hours to do. It kind of sucks doing everything on your own you know? But its cool.

[bccentaur3]

Hey is it going to be okay to use jb weld on the block adapter?

[rjbibeau]

what is giving you problem on it. jb weld and oil do not go well with each other...especially hot oil.


post some pics up of your progress.....we want pics

[bccentaur3]

I'll post it up tomorrow. Its too late.

So you don't think I could get away with it? For some reason the oil take off adapter wont fit into the threading on my head. So the only way to go about getting to work is to jbweld it. What will happen with hot oil and jbweld?

[rjbibeau]

it will pretty much melt. you need to get the correct adapter so it will make for a tight seal. you can get a cheap sandwich plate on ebay for like 45ish or you go greddy and pay 60ish. i have the greddy remote oil relocation and my girl has got the greddy sandwich plate. mine came with two adapters one for toyota /subaru i think and the other for honda and something else. i had to use the relocation kit becuase my downpipe got in the way of the oil filter by like an inch or so. check your clearance first most likely you will need to get the relocation kit as well. what kinda dp are you runnin?

[bccentaur3]

Rick, not the relocation kit. The oil take off that screws into the head to feed the turbo.

btw I'm using the factory 3s dp.

[bccentaur3]

Hey Rick, your 1/8 npt didn't work. I guess I messed it up that bad huh? Well any way I went and I said screw this and taped the head to fit the tunertoys adapter I had and now it fits like OJ Simpsons glove. All I have left to do is the oil pan. DO I have to remove the center cross member to remove the oil pan?

[rjbibeau]

yep the center crossmember and then just take off the bottom rear moror mount bolts and nuts so you can pivot it. if you want to completely take the crossmember out you need to take off the front motor mount and pivot the engine to the front. some good old ratchetstraps does the trick. do you have the 3s pan?

[bccentaur3]

yes I do. I might as well put my Kirkasaurous motor mount inserts in, If I have to unbolt the rear motor mount. Rick do you think you can give me the settings for the afc neo. I just want it to be driveable to the exhaust shop and then to MAP to get tuned.

[mr2nerkitty]

Well looks like im no longer going to be driving my Deuce to the meet.
I have bad compression in cylinder #3....damn it all!!!!!
Gas in the oil....
Appears to be either a valve not being seated right or a blown ring.

[bccentaur3]

well, are you still going to be rolling with Rick then?

[mr2nerkitty]

If he gets his ass in gear, lol then yes.

[ZGear]

I got:

1. "7" extra lug nuts, "6" wrenches broken, "3" rims bent,

2. "4" rotors warped, "8" slashed tires, "6" different fenders over the years

3. "5" different front bumper over the year, "2" cylinders running,"8" battery failures, and "0" accidents....

*hint...hint....got it? understand? good!

With my early meet with Will.......this is my number you can contact me by regarding the meet.....damn you Will....now everyone knows my number.....Of all people I thought you would of recognized the 763 area code.....

[bccentaur3]

You wish, Ger. I'm stupid bro. After our little meeting, I finally understood what you were saying. I'm sure others felt the same.

[rjbibeau]

i have no idea how to tune at all i wouldn't even know where to start. i'm just gonna trailer my car to the shop. it's only like 40 bucks for a tandem from uhaul.

[bccentaur3]

So theres no way for my car to be driveable to get tuned or to get my exhaust done?
