I'll have to try that tomorrow.

I can't even get it off yet because I don't have a socket big enough. Yet.


That actually makes a lot of sense. But of course I can't get the oil pump off until I can get the pulley off. Figures.

 

Flywheel is off. Crank pulley is off. Traded a 6 pack for manual flywheel bolts and an extra oil pan. The pan isn't the right one so I'll have to swap it out today. -_-

 

F@cking awesome... how did this come about? Did he have a CL ad asking for a 6 pack of beer, or was it someone that you knew?

 

It was Daniel, my shop guy. He's a VW/Honda man and the other mechanic in the shop is a Honda master mechanic. They have spare parts out the ***.

 

looks like a good start, i loved it when my d16y7 was boosted, it'll all be worth it soon

 

^What kind of setup were you running and what did you have done to the block and head, performance wise? If any?

 

The engine was all stock. I just slapped an eBay kit on there and called it good. I was getting a rod knock during tuning so we had to cut the tune short at 160 whp, which didn't surprise me since I was hearing signs of a spun/worn rod bearing before I boosted it. Unfortunately, I had fun with it for only two months before it was stolen and stripped. And think I had a thread on here about my car a year ago. I have pics if you want

 

Your buddies have a cheap z6 block by chance?

 

At last count there were 12 spare engines in the shop but they're all spoken for. They run a lot of 24 hours of Lemons races. I think they have a chumpcar build too. And besides, shipping would KILL.

 

Black Pearl Glad to see your back

And Hobo, looks like imma be following your thread a lil more, as im now going down the boosted non Vtec Y7 route
