Stupid question what is the point in hacking into you VC if you don't have adjustable cam gears? This may not apply here though I cant tell, but I have seen several with this done.

05-09-2009, 10:04 PM
i DO have adjustable CAM GEARS...

I never said you didn't, I was not sure if it applied to you. My question was why do people WITH OUT them hack their vc apart?
Black4DrEK
05-09-2009, 10:46 PM
OK.
I really dont know why they do it? Its just a fad.
I personally think it looks Sick when you do tho...

http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp135/black4drek/Picture057.jpg O and anybody know how to bend the lower radiator support back!!:thinking: ^^^^
http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp135/black4drek/Picture054.jpg
^^ when you get the motor back in tie it to a tree or somethin stationary and back up. but you need someone up front to watch to make sure you dont go too far. or pull the e-brake and hook a come along to it and ratchet it back.
Black4DrEK
05-10-2009, 07:23 PM
^ yea i tried the tree thing once... Im gonna try it again! LOL

Looks really good. That's one thing I am jealous of that piston guys have. Your engine cleans up so much nicer than mine. There isn't a whole lot I can clean up. If I ever rebuild the engine, I'm gonna hit the rotor housings with a brass wire drill bit, and that's about all I can do for prettiness.

You do realize you painted aluminum right? Congratulations, your engine is now going to overheat :goodjob:
If you actually spent a couple hours cleaning the engine by hand it would look a million times better than a shitty paint job, engine won't be running hot, and the finish will last infinitely longer.
Black4DrEK
05-24-2009, 01:26 PM
^thanks speedminded but umm.. Ive done this before with NO problems!!!
its not a shitty paint job EITHER!!:blah:
