Despite stated above, the head will be off tomorrow lmao. Work really gets in the way. But the belt is off (finally) . After going back and fourth realizing that the harmonic balancer had nothing to line up with, referring to the e30source timing belt tutorial, but then i remember , the block and head are totally different! 😂 , so only the crank and head timing marks really matter ( if that makes sense) .
All nonsense aside , what is a recommended machine shop in san diego area?
Its been about a week but i got my head back and its crack free , haven't had any time in the garage because of work.
What needs to happen as of today :
- block drain , there are rust flakes in there for whatever reason.
- Head goes back on
- Camshaft seal
- Oil Pan gasket
- Replace some hoses
-Thermostat (figured out that caused cooling problems.I'm positive)
- I have a new TB to put on
- Cluster batteries, only the right half lights up when the lights are on.
- sanded , 200 and 100 grit , then used high heat rattle can . I think i did fine for a first
With this , i didnt want the same dirty bolts to be on this, especially after the time i put into painting it, so they're sitting in some cleaner .
Sorry for the shit 6s photos
So further plans i've been looking at since i wont have to be worrying about the motor bugging out on me any time soon, i realized both front spring perches are shot to hell so i'm looking at some suspension kits.
- brake pads and rotors
I also am looking for a second pair of style 5 RC090's if anyone on here has any ( im psyched i even found a pair near a dumpster) . Makes me happy it'll be running well in a matter of time though. *EDIT : found some plus a spare :)
