Default creative steel

I received my creative steel mega deal,and put on the trans mount so far, just that alone made a very satisfying difference. Not to mention creative steel has very impressive customer service so far with my one transaction, and managed to get my package clear to Oklahoma in 1 day.

That is a junk engine, cracked block. The transmission is hanging on the shaft, I couldn't get it apart underneath the car so I just yanked the bitch out with the engine.

LQ4, milled 243's with BTR dual platnium springs and a VRX2 cam going in this weekend.

if u can solder its not that bad. the back of the mast switch has twist in bulb sockets and u just throw them away and solder to the board. the other three each have a single bulb soldered in place. take the. out and replace. u can pm me if u don feel confident enough to do it but still want itdone. i thought about offering the service

I repaired the wiring to the MAF with some solder. Still getting the code though.

Does anyone else's MAF wiring have two wires the same color?

i took off my cai box and ripped out a bunch of restrictive plastic out from behind the headlight... it was blocking 75% of the fender intake on my cai... i think i found the reason why my hp peaked at 5800 and went flat... must have been running out of air

Blasphemous posts like these are not allowed.



I reseated a valve seal on Friday. Looks like I didn't tap it all the way on when I did my cam back in March. I burned 1/4 qt of oil in 250 miles, so it was pretty obvious something was up.

Washed it, for the first time in weeks. I had given up after the last washing, because the amount of pollen in the air meant the morning after I washed it I walked out to find it coated in pollen and overnight dew. Mother Nature seems to have calmed down a bit with the pollen, so I gave it a much-needed bath.

Also replaced a bad header-to-cat gasket a few days ago, and rolled 86,000 miles on Friday.
