thanks. the timing belt is set up right, its the ignition i need to get set since the distributor was replacedHaha I know that feel bro. Congrats, Get that timing right so u can take it around the block. Make sure u do it the the T though. I was driving a round with my exhaust cam a tooth off for a while cuz I'd never done a DOHC and rushed it lol

i like it, just gotta get use to it. im going from a beat factory clutch with 160k on it to a this so its a big change lolWhat do you mean by interesting? Do you like it/don't like it?
what can i say, i dont play no games. might slow down a little bit now since i got some stuff to catch up ondamn 90 pages, lets keep it going
i dont have any pics really of the actual swap progress since i was just in a rush to get it done in time. which i just made since i had to drive back to school today. ill try to go out and take some more. and to set the ignition timing you need a timing light and from there its pretty simple.Nice work man. I wanna see some pics. Any details on how to properly adjust the ignition timing because I am changing my distributor as well.
Nice make a video
^ x2
glad she lives man im really happy for you.
Thanks guys, ill try to get more pics but i dont have a video camera so cant really make a video. once i get some free time ill go take picsMoar pics
Every freakin noob should have to read this before they ask their stupid "can i put 15psi on a stock d16 engine" questions lol. Glad you're liking it. Any reason in particular you went with the stage 3 clutch? I wouldn't go over stage 2 unless I was planning on some heavy boost, but thats just me. Oh and go borrow a damn video camera haha.Doing things correctly isnt cheap or easy, but im finding it to be well worth it
Awesome, thanks man. Now I just need to find a timing light haha.i dont have any pics really of the actual swap progress since i was just in a rush to get it done in time. which i just made since i had to drive back to school today. ill try to go out and take some more. and to set the ignition timing you need a timing light and from there its pretty simple.
put clamp over cylinder one spark plug wire. shine it down at the crank pulley and you will see a little black line on the timing belt cover and with the light three little lines on the pulley. just line the center line on the pulley with the black one going down the valve cover. took me about 30 seconds
yeah, its not cheap but going only oem parts and doing it right makes life so much easier and less worrying. but um idk. no reason really. got it at a great price and the plan is for ls/v plus boost so i figured i could reuse it. and now that im finding the sweet spots on it, its really not that bad. and i played sports my whole life so i got decent leg strength lolEvery freakin noob should have to read this before they ask their stupid "can i put 15psi on a stock d16 engine" questions lol.

im debating buying one, so if i do ill come up and we can do the swap and time it lol now that ive done it, its super easy. i can basically run a parts list through my head lolAwesome, thanks man. Now I just need to find a timing light haha.
Glad you liked your swap. I can't wait to get mine done.
