Engine hits!

[Guero]

Well we were turning the engine before we put the timing chain on and it hits!!!!!!!!!!!! it stops and it wont keep turning!!!!!!!! i go backwards and it hits in the same place. what the **** did we do wrong??????????? asap please.

 

[Zero Signal]

How does it feel when it stops? Is it really hard, as if the crank or piston is hitting something solid? I assume it IS out of gear right Unless there is something fubar'd in the crankcase, you probably dropped something unto the cylinder.

 

[1slow95]

You're just doing H/C/I, right? Nothing in the bottom end?

I remember having the same problem with mine, and I think it was the crank hitting the lobes on the camshaft. Put the timing chain on and all was well.

 

[Guero]

it was in gear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dammit

 

[MysteryMachine]

DUH retard lol. Get that think back together already I wanna know how it runs with that setup

Sweet!! Its always something to slow you down!

 

[bill302]

note to self....... take car out of gear while manually turning the engine...

 

[Guero]

it was out of gear the whole time, but some freinds came over, and were comparing shifters and left it in gear for me. took us 1 hour and 30 minutes to fugire it out.!!!!!!!!!!!! we would of finished today dammit, now putting the pulleys on and all that crap is gonna be a bitch, bolts everywhere. is there a diagram or something were every wire goes and were brakets bolt up and al that good stuff.. the haynes manuel shows the fox 5.0's in there diagram.

we will be done by friday night for sure. were dooing the dyno tune saturday morning.

 

[MysteryMachine]

Nice should be close to what numbers I'll be seeing. Mine will probably be more when i do it. Are you changing Inj's? I have heard with that combo you should run at least 24's.

My plan is when it comes to that time Heads,cam, inj, maf, headers, rr's Think thats about it

so with my tb alone I should see a little higher #'s then you i would think

 

[Guero]

well i got a 70mm tb, u/d pullies, bbk headers, x pipe, 30lbs injectors, maf to match the injectors. plus the nitro!

 

[MysteryMachine]

OH sounds good
