  1. Someday I’ll get to this event.
  2. This is the one I use in my 02. They have 4 left. https://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/xrf/eml/products_id/537?utm_source=November+2019&utm_campaign=Constant+Contact&utm_medium=email john
  3. Just a heads up. if anyone needs a new WB setup or wants to upgrade, Ballenger has these for sale. https://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/xrf/eml/products_id/3330?utm_source=November+2019&utm_campaign=Constant+Contact&utm_medium=email I just bought one and I don’t even need it at the moment. john
  4. I think you have some clogged idle jets and you’re trying to idle on the mains. Yea, also check the booster by disconnecting the hose and plugging the manifold. Float level too. john
  5. I think that’s the one my friend went to with his Montreal. He met up with two others there! john
  6. I ran an Isky 300 copy (used valve lash caps) on a 2.0 121ti head with 46mm intakes. This along with 40DCOEs and 9.7:1 gave a decent idle and would pull 6000 in 4th with a 364 rear. John
  7. I’ve been thinking of cleaning my headlights. Maybe I’ll paint my hood supports at the same time. Vintage prep you know. 02Les, are you guys going this year? I’d love to see you guys. John edit. Man I thought for sure you could see the supports in this pic!
  8. Not the worst I’ve seen. That area toward the rear of the head looks rough. This is what happens when people use water instead of coolant. Do you think skimming the head would clean it up? Some is ok. A lot is not. That head does have the largest combustion chambers and folklore has it they are the best flowing stock heads. Might be ok for a custom motor where you might shave the head a lot to begin with. Hard to tell not there to see it in person. John
  9. The heavy work in flairs is in the rear. The fronts are generally a bolt on replacement fender. It’s easy to have a lot of money tied up in the execution of the flare. If you go look at the car in person, look up under the rear flare and see if you can see remnants of the original fender. Was it trimmed and welded? Was it crudely cut and maybe pinch welded (or worse riveted) together? How were the flares bonded to the body? My car uses the stuff Audi glues A8 together with. I think they were 268 a cartridge and we used 3 of them. John
  10. I’m a huge fan of the Yakima 1A. Plus you can use it on anything with drip rails. John
  11. I can’t stress this enough. +1 for the throttle linkage to be mounted to the body and not the motor/transmission. John
  12. Looks like a suck through DCOE setup. You could use a single ITB with megasquirt. The end limit with this is fuel distribution and lack of an intercooler. I do like the idea. I’d like to see the front pully setup. Does it bolt to a tii hub? Would it bolt up to a O2 again 36-1 front pully? John
  13. Yea and because of the quality of TWM/Borla I’d go Jenvy 40mm if I were to do it again. I knew Jim would know. John
  14. I’m leaning Electromotive by the look of the coils. John
  15. Looks like TWM individual throttle bodies. Can’t really elaborate more than that as we can’t see the ecu. Megasquirt? john.
  16. The torque increase from an S14 crank and big bore pistons is not to be ignored. John
  17. His opinion was that the 2 valve head wasn’t capable of flowing more than the 2230 was capable of sucking. My car is quite streetable with the 304. If I was going to build another I’d think about the 316 to make it a little more top end stronger. But then again the low end torque is good. What the hell do I know? john.
  18. Not that it’s gold gospel but Eric Kerman told me you don’t get anything by going bigger than a 46mm intake. Or at least, the gains were not worth the cost. This was said to me as I was trying to spend more money on the head. I’m fairly happy with the 304. If I was going to do it again I’d think about the 316. John
  19. Funny how many of us have both, a 2002 and a 912. John
  20. Jim, isn’t the head gasket the same? I use an S14 head gasket on my m10. John
