    need help and your thoughts / Motor mount-engine position Q?

    My solid mounts from Moroso bumped my engine about a half inch up. If that helps, maybe you want to try them out?

    GT 40 P heads

    I'm sure they'll work, but why? Get the TFS set, then you'll be safe for sure :)

    What do you guys think

    Needs a hood. :D I like it, looks like a clean version of my car! What kind of rims are those? They look like updated ponys?

    New Daily Driver *Pics*

    Probes are just misunderstood. The 1g GTs kicked ass and the 2g 24V GTs are very fun to drive. I don't see why every rags on them :shrug: Maybe the name...

    valve springs differn't cam

    It has to be total. If it was supposed to be between each flexing coil, I'd be having serious issues.

    valve spring replacement

    Just fyi when you go to get the valve spring compressor, you'll need the overhead style. Like the one here: http://imageserver.isnweb.com/KDT3271.jpg Autozone sells them for less than $15. Not sure, but I think the only one they rent is the style that would need the heads off of the car. Also...

    valve springs differn't cam

    Coil bind is when the springs are being pushed past their limit and the individual coils are coming into contact with each other. My stock spring were spray marked (green on intake, red and orange on exhaust) so if yours have those they're probably stock. Not sure if all of them were done like...

    Where to buy plastic and plastic molds?

    Eh, maybe make the mold out of clay? Then fire it... I'm sure it'll stand up to molten plastics. Sorry that's all I got :D

    Head bolts leaking coolant!!!!

    Are you sure you can just pull them off? I'm not sure at all, but I know it only took one loose bolt on my intake mani to make it leak... and retorquing it wouldn't help much.

    so I just got the coupe back and....

    T5? Tremec? What'd you get put in? I can relate, though... a fresh T5 after driving on a grindy, weird ass 5th gear one is an absolute pleasure.

    battle boxes

    My car is proof of this! Get them installed while you're doing the rest and you won't have to worry about it. Also, why don't you plan on ever running DRs or slicks?

    Roller Rockers...Worth it?

    If you're gonna stick with those heads for a while, get some 1.7s. Proform sells a pedestal mount kit for like $170 through Summit, so it's not that much of a loss if you decide to go stud later on... since you're just barely putting these ported 7s on there, I say go for it.

    19 LB COBRA MAF/smog

    Wow, you're right. This question does get asked a lot, lol. :D

    Knocking! Help!

    Random thought... take a look at your motor/trans mounts. When my stock type ones were torn, it made really weird clunking noises all the time. Might as well take a look for fun :nice: Good luck!

    no zero on balancer for timing???

    Well if you've got 10ATDC and 10 BTDC, 0 should just be right in the middle of the two... Are you sure that it reads 10 and not |0 =) Dunno, might happen. In any case, just get a measurement of the 20B to the 30B and measure that much back off of the 10B mark.

    little question about pushrods?

    Just put some assembly lube on there if you're worried. It dissolves in engine oil.
