Glen's budget rebuild

[brainlessfool]

i thought you told me once you had 94mm pistons

my bad. to used to home grown motors. 94mm it is.

[brainlessfool]

well thats the difference i guess,  you had LCEngineering pistons and i had keithblack pistons   and you had a electric fan  i had the stock fan

and I don't beat the out of the truck eather!

[79coyotefrg]

i dont beat my truck  i do drive fast but you dont have any heating problems with the 94mm     

are you running a 20R head or a 22R

[79coyotefrg]

i am definitely gonna get a electic fan

[IronClad]

id look into getting a v6 rad before a electric fan..  i run no shroud and the clutch fan .. while my motor isnt built  i have absolutely no heating issues.. *shrug*

[79coyotefrg]

 

[IronClad]

that head is DONE ..   id find another complete  22r and shove it in there ..  :\  they can be had pretty cheap

[79coyotefrg]

ive got another block and a good 22R head,  as you can see from the pic  the water port near #3  is eaten up
yea that head is getting stripped and junked out


i feel in my truck with this block and my cam i can run the 22R head and intake with still good results

if i go with the other block then i will use another 20R head 
with this block and a 20 head the gasket area is just toosmall  for a good seal

[brainlessfool]

i don't beat my truck    i do drive very fast  but you don't have any heating problems with the 94mm     

are you running a 20R head or a 22R

don't get hot when I pulled my trailer (2.5K) over the Oregon/Cali border in 100 deg heat. (summit 4.5K feet)

and I'm running my stock 22R head. (well except for the over sized ehx. valves)

[79coyotefrg]

ive got another block,   i'll have it bored to .020  or 030  and have some aisin pistons  for it, then run the 22R head i have thats ported bigtime,  then put the LCE cam in that head,  it should make some nice power


i got a good 22R  carb,  i might try running it  and see how it does on steep inclines

I still have my 22r with a 85 head and stage 2 LCE cam and I have WAY more power than it did before. I tink you will be happy if you just put the LCE cam in it. Im happy with it and should be more happy with the EFI. Oh yeah my carb and timing still are not perfect and im way happy.

[79coyotefrg]

cool

thanks LB

[79coyotefrg]

pulled the drive shafts today,  and loosened  all the tranny bolts

[Rocksurfer]

Rob the bank and make it spectacular so it makes national.

[kneedownnate]

Stage 5 long block

[79coyotefrg]

its on the back burner for now,  dad went to StVincents in LittleRock today,  he has multiple bypass heart surgery in the morning

[burnyota]

HOPE ALL GOES WELL GLEN..

[hammerdown]

Hopefully everything goes good and he doesn't have any problems! Take care of yourself!   

[blackdiamond]

This isn't really my place to post this information, but in an effort to not make things worse for Glen...

His dad passed away, check the other thread for additional information.  Show your support there 

[79coyotefrg]

thanks Jon, 

one of the last things done to the truck  was Dad  helping me work on the wireing harness for the Elocker,  not quite up to tacklin that just yet   but soon, 

[79coyotefrg]

   time to get some work done i guess

[79coyotefrg]

  well,  its time to get started taking the old engine out,  although  i wont have any help,

maybe mom will help after her soap's  go off


anyway i have a 3-4 week wait at the machine shop

this is what i took over yesterday

[79coyotefrg]

 

[79coyotefrg]

got it out,  now i can take it apart and see what the deal is

[BigMike]

Wow Glen, you had some serious detonation going on there......

Have you considered a 2nd Knock sensor with a monitor?

Check out MSD's Knock Alert Sensor: http://www.msdignition.com/tool_8.htm

I used that on my SC MR2 and it would give distint reading differences even between 89 oct and 91 oct gas. I would just set my timing in accordance to the Knock Alert Monitor. And it saved me when my Water/Alcohol Injection would run out. I would get on the boost and all of a sudden that thing would light up red and start beeping like crazy. $100 is small and simple insurance to save a whole engine in my opinion


Good luck with the next one. Let me know if I can help any
Mike

[79coyotefrg]

one thing i have learned  is  anything over .040 on a 22R block  dont use a 20R head,  head gasket has too little sealing surface

after i check this for cracks and eggage  i might get another set and try  a stock 22R head

otherwise the other block will go in

[79coyotefrg]

pulled the tranny apart,  man  it needs some bearings,    input bearing is  sloppy,  1st and second  synchro  aint in real good shape
