I apologize for my ignorance... Are the ones you linked for a factory bore ? Mine is .020 over.

Thanks !

So what non-forged pistons would you guys recommend?

I don't know how anyone could get away with running an 006 on a non cross drilled block , considering it completely blocks off those coolant passages. I definitely wouldn't purposely do it. I would...

Wow, thanks for all of the information ! I posted here about a year ago about the 1987 Shelby Lancer that I picked up needing to be honed due to improper break in. Well, I am just now tearing in to...

I determined the pistons are MP cast pistons , and cracked to hell ! Here is another picture of the rods :

Sorry guys , I did not mean to post this twice.

1987 shelby lancer. For those of you that haven't read my other post :

1987 Shelby Lancer. Engine has 1500 miles on it. Ran fine after rebuild, was parked for a long period and now has 2 cylinders with 60lbs compression. I was going to go through it again, hone and new...

It was missing the #10 fuse. It is labeled as back up lights and I had no idea it was for the fan as well. I popped the cover off , saw it was missing , tossed one in and the fan turned on. Haha.

I got it fixed today !
Thanks guys !

I swapped the computer with a spare, no change. I don't have a SEL on with the CTS plug disconnected. I do However have a " Power Loss " light on. I'm not sure what that means..

I have codes 11...

Unplugging the cts does not make the fan come on. So does this mean the cts is good and I have either a bad relay , computer or wiring issue ?

Awesome , thanks :)

I don't think this is related but does anyone know where this wire goes ?http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a34/Homelessduck/Mobile%20Uploads/20141104_132700_zps996acdf8.jpg

I checked the CTS voltage today. It went down to less than 2 so I shut it off. It was definitely too hot. From what I've read it is supposed to turn on at 2.1v...

I fired it up today ! It started right up ! It has a ton of exhaust coming out of the valve cover and dip stick tube and it is over heating. The tach and fan aren't working...

I found out where the water was coming from. The hood vent has a water tray under it that drains the water to the side of the engine. There was a broken bolt on the tray so it hung down allowing...

Yep, it's an older block ... :( poop.

Do you guys rtv the front and rear rubber gasket at all ?

What can I look for to verify it is the earlier block ? Or is it not possible to swap in a common block ?
I just want to be sure no one swapped in a later block at some point. I'm on my phone and...

Is this the correct gasket for my 87 Shelby Lancer ? Just wanted to verify before spending $40 on a gasket I can't use :)

Order placed, paid with Paypal.

Thanks Chris, I'll place an order right now then. I know it sounds stupid but I just couldn't justify $14 for ground shipping of such a small item. $7 for 2-3 day shipping is much better ! :)

I almost ordered from them and TU but while I appreciate both companies I refuse to pay $14 to ship a handful of small bolts.

Thanks,

Thanks for the help guys ! I'll post a wanted ad on here as suggested rather than trying to figure it out at the hardware store.
