Check out the new toy that I get to work on. My brother traded a motorcycle for this roadster and he has brought it to me to whip the steering and the wiring all into shape, build a set of headers,...
Awesome runs dude. Your car just flat flies man. Great work!
You sir are correct. Just so they are plugged and sealed, as there is no pressure against them.
Sadly, I do not have any pictures of the car I built. I had a computer crash about a year ago and somehow they weren't on my backup hard-drive. I have since parted out the car and junked the shell(it...
The passages are smaller on the water-pump end of the engine since the pump and the t-stat are both at the same end of the motor. There was one coolant hole in the head-gasket on the right rear of...
I built a 2.2L Hybrid engine, and I used an older 2.0L Neon head...So most of this will apply...
Holes that need plugged:
- The 3 oil drain holes in the front of the 2.5L block need to be plugged...
Since mine had white faces instead of black, I put red LEDs in mine, they looked awesome. Great set of gauges.
Nice build man. Like the header, intake, and shifter setup. Let me know how you like those gauges, I had the white-face versions of that tach and speedo in my Shadow, the tach was a little sluggish...
Wow. Awesome work on that fixture. Very cool upgrade.
Well...To sum it all up in one word...Kinda... =)
I started to gut the '88 Shadow shell that I had and found that the floor and the frame rails were completely rotted out, so I ended up cutting it...
Wow, that is one trick looking setup. Hope you get that setup to work for you. I got something really crazy in the works in the next couple years and could really use a bulletproof setup like that....
Single or twins will depend on what I can come up with for a decent price, but it will most likely be a nicely sized single. Probably going to shoot for around 400WHP, I just want to go 3.0L/RWD to...
I just ended up replacing the whole box as the box itself was leaking. Problem solved. =)

Yeah, I was probably going to start with a Montero engine and figure out a way to strap an R154 to it. I'm not going to go into the TT-DOHC stuff as I'm sure I can get where I wanna be with the 12v...
I'm starting to plan out a future 3.0L Turbo project for my Shadow that I'm converting to RWD. Obviously I'll be using an adapter plate and I'm unsure on what transmission I will be running, I'm...
Haha...Indeed. Thanks to Aries_Turbo for the massive PDF manual he linked me to for the car and you guys for helping out or it would probably still be sitting. Lol.

Oh don't worry man, I didn't take it personal. It's really hard to convey "tone of voice" over the internet so I just try my best. Yeah I'm getting ready to call the dealer now and see what's up with...
Well...Swapping the magnet out fixed the start issue, but apparently since I put the computer into the other car it fudged up the mileage programming. I found info online that says when replacing the...
Edit #2: I've figured it out. The new head was from a 2003 the car is a 2002, 2003 they switched the PCMs to a different style. The magnet on the end of the cam in 2003+ has many many N/S poles on...
Thanks guy. I just probed the Crank Sensor signal wire with an LED light. I'm not sure exactly what kinda signal is supposed to come from it, I'm pretty sure it's a hall effect sensor since it has an...
It's all good. I know how to check for spark. I was a mechanic for a while and have been working on cars since I was 12 years old. After I found out there was no spark at the plugs, I unhooked the...
Shadow88 is correct. SOHC engine, non-magnum. And no the gear can't be put on backwards it wont even bolt to the head that way. I checked the cam timing again and it's bang on. I checked the ASD and...
Yeah, it only bent the exhaust valves in cylinder 3 and they were just barely bent. Only enough that they were stuck a tiny tiny bit open. If the pistons had valve pockets cut into them instead of...
