What brand are you goin with for that twin disk?

Glad to hear everything isn't looking TOO fucked. Like JD said, the shavings are going to be from the thrust washers. Keep the updates comin

End play measured out at .008 inch. i dont get it... ----. it sure appeared that it was moving around more than that. I mean i know that thats a really small amount of movement, but it SURE as expletive seemed like it was moving more than that.... Not to mention the clunk it made when it hit either side of the end of its travel...


Anyways... I have some pics ill put up later (tomorrow)... Havent pulled the pistons out of the bores (et) but it looks like thats going to be the next step. There was a touch of discoloration on the exhaust side of the number four cylinder wall, but nothing you could feel at all... curious to see whats up on the top of the nore and what the piston looks like.

Bottom line is im really really puzzled (as well as a number of otherpeople involved) exactly what the expletive the noise (the ticking) is. LMAs?

Any input greatly appreciated
WHOA, did you just copy and paste from Honda-Tech to HOMEMADE TURBO?!!!?!
