Thats the one.
Thanks for the tips. Im actually dropping a welder off at 3 mules today. I've been using Heard Precision Machine, Johnny Heard for all my engine machine shop needs. He has been pretty awesome so far...
Really trying to figure out what direction to go in here. Still need looking to get some answers on my previous post. Heres some pictures of the carnage:

Not to get too off topic, but Im trying to confirm whats going on now. Upon head removal I found milkshake inside the head bolt hole in the block. Im writing about it in my build thread.
Cool beans. Im battling what might end up being a cracked block right now anyway so might be 2.5 turbo swap time anyway lol.
@135sohc ill be at cars and coffee sunday morning at the beanery
Well my van is a v6 so I cant use the transmission itself from what I understood, because thats a 4cyl bellhousing. I was mainly concerned with the pedal box/shifter/linkage ect for the day when I...
I found a '92 caravan locally with a 5 speed. Can I use this shifter and pedal box for my '88 when I do my manual swap?
The heads and block were professionally done/magnafluxed/checked ect. Id have to check my documentation again on where the gaskets and bolts were sourced from, but they were selected by the...
Another year in update. I've put about 12,000 miles on the build and I noticed some weird temp issues again. I found that the Heater control valve was leaking, as was the thermostat housing....
So I found a 1991 Daytona ES 3.0 5SPD locally that I am thinking about picking up for a 5spd swap into the van. Am I correct that this has the right trans that I need? The car has 200k on it so am a...
I have a surging idle now in park. Under load she's fine right under 1000 where it should be. In park it revs from 1700-2000. Ideas?
Well I have put about 700 miles on it so far and everything is great. Took 2nd place in the classics category at a local mopar show over the weekend. People would not stop asking me about it. I have...
I used KYBs on all four corners the same gas-a-just in the rears.
I would agree with those things but why would It throw a code for it if it was just the gauge being inaccurate?
I'm sitting right at 14degrees of timing and yes with a light and the sensor unplugged. Only code that's come back so far is 17&22. So coolant temp cold. I've checked the level several times and...
Well I would hope not since it is new. It just seems to be down on power and throttle response as well maybe the two are related. Maybe the timing is off still? Maybe something is wonky in the...
I am having an issue with it running super cold now. even after driving a moderate distance the needle barely comes off the stop. It will only get up to "normal" operating temperature if it sits and...
180 degrees out of timing. Which I thought of and thought I fixed but I was thinking that the distributor had 12 teeth and it has 11 so I kept turning it to far and driving myself crazy. Felt dumb...
Shes pretty much buttoned up right now. All back together and took it around the block. Need to send it up to the alignment shop and work out a few kinks but I think I did good. Made the exhaust...
It runs! Now I need to find a good muffler. Any suggestions? Looking for 2.5 in and 2.5 out preferably.
My cap is plainly labeled.
So I had a fee things going on. Thanks for the tip on the neutral safety switch lightbulb. Not sure if it was faulty but it let me on a trail of breadcrumbs to the route issue. Chased voltage and...
Fuel pump primes fine. Power is good to everything. Main ground is to the head where it should be. All other grounds were thoroughly cleaned. and back in their respective places. Distributer was...
Tried to start it. Full power from everything when the key was on. When I turned to the start position I got nothing. No clicks, no noise from the starter. Bumped the starter from the ground, turned...
Tips for priming the engine? Just spin it over with the fuel pump relay pulled?
