  1. WOW...:mrgreen:thats amazing work man... cutting it close to the radiator too...
  2. wow thats crazy stuff man... good thing your valves are alright. hahaha i sent these links to my buddy and he said that you just hit VtAk too hard:mrgreen:
  3. yeah theres a spray bar on my head. I'll eventually get the head rebuilt but i am definitely disappointed that it went to waste...
  4. in my "How to rebuild your datsun" book, it states that beck/arnley is basically the same stock parts Nissan uses. I just ordered a new headgasket and went with this brand over Felpro.
  5. happened to me last weekend...... i still need to pull the head, but anyway im not getting any oil at all to the cam towers. So my problem is most likely a misalligned/wrong headgasket, or the head has imperfections in the ports. I have a solid "hot" cam on my n42 head that i hope isnt ruined:(
  6. i thought the top hat needs to be removed with an allen hex wrench and a box open wrench... thats how mine is setup.
  7. sorry if im coming off as a newb... and i feel retarded because of what i found out. I checked my linkage again and it was way off. My the linkage was too short and so it caused my carbs to be 1/4-1/2 throttle. I lengthened the rod and so far has fixed my problem. Thank you guys for you information. It was very informative and made some of my work painless. Im sorry to those who were fed up by my stubborness.
  8. alright well my timing is pretty much dead on and im still having overrev problems... my guess is there is a vacumm leak somewhere between the carbs and manifold. I know my fuel pressure is right and the float bowl isnt full.
  9. oh man.... im downloading it as im typing this.... ill comment once i watch it, but im excited for it:mrgreen: edit:...makes me want to go back to turbo:icon45:
  10. i experienced the same problems your saying but with my turbo honda. What it was, was my injectors im upgraded to had a spray pattern that did not cooperate well with my engine. Perhaps you might have the same deal? just throwing out ideas...
  11. FWD, AWD, RWD... only thing that matters to me is if you do the motor the right way.
  12. im not too sure which forum i should post this in, but this is a video of my friends buildup. Stock k24a1 block (Honda CRV) Stock k20a2 head (Acura RSX-S) One-Fab Manifold Tial 44mm Wastegate T4/GT35R ... on stock clutch:cry2: the track times are on street tires:tongue: http://videos.streetfire.net/recentvideos/3/FF405C52-2420-4789-81D9-5BCCDAB95E41.htm
  13. i just used plastic or rubber floor mats... that keeps me static free:mrgreen:
  14. no need i have that same sound of flying bees on my honda:mrgreen:
  15. BUMP... does anyone have any theories about what might be happening? As i advance the timing, the engine races. I even tried messing with the throttle shaft and when i give it gas nothing happens.
  16. thats the thing i am using a timing light, but whenever im advancing the distributor the engine starts to race VERY high. Almost as if i am WOT. I would think i might have a pretty big vacumm leak somewhere on the manifold. Im going to remove the carb assembly today and retighten everything on the motor to make sure that isnt the case.
  17. alright i figured out my ignition problems....but now its something else. When setting my distributor, my carbs backfire...but when i advance it the engine raises in RPM but drastically... i find myself retarding it in fear or over revving the motor. This is getting rediculous and very tedious. Some ppl tell me it could be my cam timing but that still wouldnt explain the overreving. Also when it is overreving, i am not getting any backfiring problems.
  18. thanks for the help guys, ill try to get a hold of a digicam as soon as i can and take snaps of it.
  19. This was from zedrally on classiczcars.com... he said it could possibly be a "bitza" - rebuilt from 2 or more heads... well that would explain why my cam rotates freely, now i have to address one of the lash pads... it appears the (6) exhaust lash pad is stock instead of the pad correlating to the cam.
