the hog runs. UPDATED WITH PICS FINALLY
 

well, finished modding my harness and installing everything and going over it twice.

the built b16a fired right up tonight. took it for a short n/a ride around the block with petey and it is balls slow. 8.5:1 b16a in a fatass gsr makes for a very slow ride.

got back and checked everything out, car was running nice, no smoke, running cool with the filled block and what do you know, drip,. drip, drip,

------ exhaust cam seal was pissing. oh well.

looks like thursday me and mahcivic will be doing the cam seals over.

other than that im very pleased., no piston slap, no wierd anything, after the new cam seals shell be ready for some hard boost.

pics of the car up soon.

Re: the hog runs.
 

why would there be pistons slap ??? someone else built it .. not you ...... ;D



j/k lets see them pics nig nog ... how long till boost ? a couple weeks ?

Re: the hog runs.
 

make sure you got the intake cam seals on the intake side, and the exhaust on the exhaust side.
before decided to say ---- these so called professionals, I took my head to a machine shop to get it port and polish and get the valve seals replaced.. 60 months later. my ---- is smoking out the valve cover. I was like ----.
when I decided to rebuild my motor myself and upgrade the valve springs, I noticed the exhaust seals were on the intake side, I was pissed, and thats when I decide that I am done with shops and socalled professionals.

so check that ----. and good luck.

Re: the hog runs.
 

??? >:D

Re: the hog runs.
 

stop posting

where pics homeslice did old english put you out

Re: the hog runs.
 

it should only take you about 8 seconds to put a different cam seal in it.

Re: the hog runs.
 

... ???

Sounds good Josh, glad to hear she's running

Re: the hog runs.
 

After 5 years it started to smoke? :l

Re: the hog runs.
 

maybe he meant 6

Re: the hog runs.
 

WoooWoooo nice that it runs. Josh put some RTV around the outside of the seal next time.

Re: the hog runs.
 

I said six months, and did not changed my post

Re: the hog runs.
 

forget replacing it, put some hondabond on it :P

Re: the hog runs.
 

i hope it has rod knock, the rings blow, smash the ring lands, metal shavings destory the oil pump, scrape up your cams, and you drop a valve, ahhh what a perfect world taht would be, and karma would be delivered.

Re: the hog runs.
 

no you said 60 but we all know what you meant.

Re: the hog runs.
 

replaced both cm seals today flatyrate style and she runs awesome. no moise, runs clean ready to go, now if only i could figure out my my cluster doesnt work.

Re: the hog runs.
 

Glad to know things are going OK so far. Did you check to see is there might be a blown fuse for the cluster or a slack/unplug connector?

Re: the hog runs.
 

you know the saying grab a rope

Re: the hog runs.
 

where the ---- is the pics nig nog .... least see the 1.6 beast

Re: the hog runs.
 

seriously, i wanna see what mani you made for the gm8

Re: the hog runs.
 

You don't read the forums much, do you?

Re: the hog runs.
 

apparantly not

Re: the hog runs.
 

possibly dumb question, but how the hell is the enigne cooled with a filled block? WTF keeps it from overheating, especially when it's boosted. Especially when you see some (take a boosted GSR for example) built enignes pushing 300-400 and they usually have aftermarket radiators. Though the stock half size ones ---- out above 300?

Re: the hog runs.
 

Have you ever looked at a head gasket?
You will notice there are only a few holes for the coolant to pass through. Drill out the same holes in your filles block and your golden.

Re: the hog runs.
 

have you read the writeup on filling a block? it sits in there just like a blockgaurd would except without the distortion of the sleaves, it hollow below the filled in spot so it allows water to go around the sleaves just like normal

Re: the hog runs.
 

wtf no pics???

Re: the hog runs.
 

Well,the hood and bumper just went on and josh took that dirty slut to the carwash. I think a lot of you will change your minds about the red wheels when you see the pics. It resembles pure sex with the car dropped to the ground. Now I just cant wait till the dyno day :6

Re: the hog runs.
 

maybe if he if ever post pics we can jusge them ...lol i love red rimes... dunno how it looks on a green car though

Re: the hog runs.
 

yeah i read the write up, but i think i just need to see it. So there's only about 6-7 inches of filler in the waterjacket, and it's in the middle area surrounding the sleves, and has holes drilled through it to let coolant pass. So in all actuality, it's like an overgrown block guard that doesn't distort the sleeves?

Re: the hog runs.
 

you people have some fucked up spelling :S

NoSex, post up some pics nigga. I wanna see them red rims. Post both day and night pics, more important the pics in daylight and not some shadowed pics, direct sunlight doggie. :y

Re: the hog runs.
 

I think in the write up he made a mistake, I think he meant to say fill salt up 6-7 inches, and the rest with the filler. i because the water jacket is about 7 inches deep.

Re: the hog runs.
 

:( Come on Josh, lets see her in all of her glory.

Re: the hog runs.
 

hurry up with the pictures nigga, this better be good. like make em say ughhhh :o . sex for riding around n/a with 8.5:1=slo mo fo

Re: the hog runs.
 

he is probably hung over drunk with a dildo stuck in his ass
