    Diesel engine swaps

    A 12v cummins is pretty much completely mechanical. Few odds and ends are electric, but they dont require a computer to run. Thats one of the reason people want to swap in 12v vs the 24v cummins.

    Diesel engine swaps

    I know its not an A-body, but still for the reference, they do fit in small cars

    Diesel engine swaps

    My cousin is putting a 6bt into a dart. Its a full tube chassis car though. My other cousin put an old 12v into a fox body mustang. They do fit, they are just really tall, so a hood really isnt an option. Diesel is the way to go for power honestly. The foxbody running a small turbo, slightly...

    What non Mopars do you have?

    Yeah they can be stupid quick! If I'm not wrong don't they have the 4g63 out of the lancers?

    What non Mopars do you have?

    Still love my 73 dart swinger to pieces, but have a soft spot for the Japanese imports. Unlike the States, Canada has a 15 year import rule, so because of that I could import my 98 Toyota Aristo 2 years ago. For those that don't know its essentially a Supra with 4 doors. Pretty hard to beat a...

    VW TDI clutch question

    I have an 04 and I love it! I haven't dealt with the clutch because mine came with a new one. But I just did the timing belt and water pump recently and it was pretty easy. You need a special tool to do it right though. Also the 04 is the Pumpe Duse motor. The previous ALH motors were known to...

    Bent flexplate

    The little circled spot is the only bent part. The flexplate as a whole is still straight. Maybe a better word is it got dimpled a bit. The converter wouldn't wobble, starter sounds nice and even, but I can't start it because it's apart until my new balancer comes in.

    Bent flexplate

    I'm making around 380-400hp, so nothing crazy. I'm most worried about it being out of balance and messing up the trans or main bearings.

    Bent flexplate

    Hey guys, been away for a while and haven't been posting, been so damn busy! I was removing a crank bolt and stopped the motor by using a wrench in a flexplate hole, well it slipped a bit and made a dent in one of the holes. I'm not sure if it's bad enough to pull the trans and replace it. I'll...

    Jdm turbo?

    They are ok. Good unless you start to push them. Alot of them have ceramic wheels in them which can break apart depending on the amount of boost you run. I have a 98 JDM toyota aristo (Lexus gs300 for North America) with a 2jz. It has a sequential twin turbo setup, spool really well but they...

    any Drift monkeys out there?

    I'm starting to get more involved at my local drift track. It's honestly so much fun. The first drift car I was in was a Nissan 180sx with a turbocharged 1UZ (Toyota v8) with a 250 shot on it. The car weighed 2600 pounds...
