End of Summer you say,..I’m thinking by mid july.
When the new flexplate gets here i’ll measure, and measure, to the point that i have checked the thing till i’m confident it’s right. then I’ll send the spacer, the flexplate, and the converter up to PTC for a redo. while that’s happening, i’ll attempt the pan fix.
I hope to hell that this is the fix.
Why did you invoke Volde...er... he who shall not be named?Trump attempted a rally the other night. I hope you're more in touch with reality and actually succeed in your endeavor.
The pan is now off too...( i’m seriously gonna have to re-think using “ the right stuff” as a gasket maker...it is almost permanent once cured..)I’m actually afraid that i’ll bend something trying to pry it off.
But it too is now off....How to properly fix that thing will be my next task.
I’ll do that while waiting on transmission junk to get here. At my count, the oil pan is leaking in at least 4 places once i remove all of the JB weld repair failures...I’ll tell you one thing, that bitch ain’t going back on till it absolutely is submarine tight.
Before I can hope to move forward on the transmission, I’ll need my flexplate from JDM in Miami. It’s supposed to be in route hopefully be here by thursday, so that I can mock it up, make my measurements, and get the converter out on Friday. If i can do all of that, and they get it by first part of the week, I might be on track to have this all back together and in by mid month July.
I spoke to a tech guy at Brian Crower cams...A mild set of VVTI cams will cost me 720.00 ( it’s actually only one VVTI cam, the exhaust cam is the same as a non-VVTI exhaust cam). They are not so large (264 adv dur) that I’ll be forced to change out the springs, and will potentially yield another 50 hp...The other perk,....the more important reason for the cam upgrade is they’ll help to eliminate turbo lag. Which at the present time....I have a butt load of.
Ive been arguing with myself over this mod...Now that i can stand so close to the engine, there’ll never be a better time to add these things...and in the grand scheme of things ( If the converter mod only costs 300.00 bucks as expected)
is a fraction of what I was expecting to have to spend to swap out the transmission.
I can tell I won’t have to keep talking to myself too much longer to justify that purchase.

No need for the hand slap Noobz...I welcome the warm and fuzzy I get that comes from knowing that there are at least a few here that don’t bury their head in the sand, and can call a nut job a nut job when they see one.There's poking the bear unnecessarily and there's just saying dumbfor the sake of doing it. I will remind you kindly that, that is my job and also sketch you a little site map to the SW.
I drew it backward so you can find it when you shave.

This entire thing right now is a nut job. I keep thinking I'll wake up and there will be intelligent people in the House, Senate, and running the country. And Mike will have sent me burnout videos asking for his new tires.
