As you guys probably know, my timing belt slipped and I'm in need of yet another engine. I'm putting the one in I had originally planned to turbo. I'm now planning on just turbo charging a 3.5L instead. The piston rods are way bigger than the 6g72's and this will help since I only planned on replacing pistons.
I'll keep everyone posted, as of right now it does not move.
That's what I'm talking about! Get it done bro.
I cant believe that happened was that the motor that the car came with or the one that was in your old galant?Quote:

Yea, this motor was from my old G. I replaced the timing belt, water pump, and the tensioner pulley. The hydraulic tensioner failed and caused the belt to slip upon deceleration. Engine had 75k miles on it.Quote:

This engine was supposed to be used for my turbo build. I changed the spark plugs, intake plenum + TB, Timing belt and pulleys, water pump, TIMING BELT TENSIONER, and all gaskets. Moved the transmission, headers, and spec clutch over.
Nice man glad to see it back together again.What was so special about using this motor for your turbo build?Quote:

Take two flat head screw drivers and put them between the release clip (near TOB) and the clutch fork. While turning the screw drivers, just push the fork towards the removed slave cylinder and she comes right off. I did it in like 2 minutes last night.Quote:
