[dougyfresh]

What car did this come out of? I hope not the white widebody Avant.


EDIT: Nevermind. Found the FS ad. Looks like it was a silver car. Damn. those are amazing prices.

How was the motor running prior to the accident? I heard those CP pistons have been hit or miss with oil consumption in the 2.7 block.

[GURUMAN]

Progress,, built but broken motor is torn down and everything has checked out and has no damage..

now gotta get my spare motor and eveyrthing to the machine shop.

[diabolical1]

what's the deal with that Rx-7?

[JDM EJ1 95]

just a car we are working on, doing all the blockoffs and removals of stuff he doesnt need and doin some maintnence

[JDM EJ1 95]

Ok guys, little update.. motor is at the machine shop, getting everything setup, cunningham rods/cp pistons/034 coated bearings


Manifolds are at ASP, just waiting to hear from them on how much it will cost me to repair the drivers side.


Currently i need to sell my ASP fueling, i know its a longshot but its for a 3.0L with 2.8heads. made 560whp.


plans are to go 034 standalone, 72lbers basically full custom fueling.


reason being is i will push these 28's to the limits or whatever else breaks first. and if they run out of steam ill either be going bigger in the future or throwing another power adder at it..


with that being said, no real pictures to post as of now that you guys havent seen yet.. ill post pics when i get some things back.

[Das General]

What is wrong with ASP manifold?
