so you think I should just leave the valves in there for the machine shop? I'm planning on getting new valves though anyways, and upgrade everything for the head. idk yet should i do the whole .1mm oversize or what?

I got the lifters out and everything off the head(alternator bracket, housing etc.) Is there way to take the valves and everything out without a valve spring compressor? (following the tsrm)

No I'm just unfamiliar with an inline 6. I've only owned a buick and two hondas. On one of my hondas when I opened up the engine, 4 and 2 were in the same spot, and 3 and 1 were almost at tdc. I would've figured with a 6 ... it would've followed the same pattern and there would be 3 pairs of...

Fuck it. I'll just use tinypic for now. just 2 for now.\ I'm going out on a limb here and hoping it's not a stupid question but, why are 4 of the pistons in the same position and the other two towards bdc and the others like almost at tdc? you can't really tell but there in the same exact...

Idk. that's the thing. my grandpa did on his own. i just came home and hes like look what I did, he said he had to hammer in the hex bit or something and then, use like a screwdriver or some idk some thing that he could stick in to have like a groove to help catch it(at one of the angles...

the head is off. ill update pics later ill make a build thread

Im I thinking of a different drill or something, im asking bro, what do you mean by drill it off? Like drill a hole through the center of the head? when you say drill, i'm thinking of a drill and drill bits... like easy-out style?

Supracentral... I really hope that wasn't directed at me. how the hell am I gonna drill that? you think it'll be alright with that one bolt just coming out at once by itself... it should be alright? what about that spring loaded punch thing the guy I said talked about? btw just wanted...

Well I ended up giving up. they dont make 11 mm in hex bits, and they go from 3/8 to 1/2 so they dont even have a lil bigger in sae. im done for today im goin out, see what responses i get and ill try tommorrow im off again. well I talked to a mechanic and he said soemthing about a spring...

fuckin wonderufl the dumbass pieces of shit(dont knwo if u remember abotu talkign abotu guy before me diong a rebuild) fucking stripped the #5 bolt to the head, its completely rounded out. I am clueless as to what to do, I cant get a pair of vice grips in there, un less i start with the...

I just picked up a duralast 2 foot breaker bar, lets see what happens guranteed for life

Kinda sorta what I meant by adding 2 feet of pipe on a ratchet, it's almost the same thing. That is the last thing I haven't done yet because I don't have one. damnit i guess im gonna have to make a run to the store cuz i need it now. i want this shit off i hope autozone has some good ones...

Ok so I am now going on 45 minutes and have gotten nowhere... I can't even get the first bolt loose. I've tried different ratchets, longer one, different size drives, loosen bolts oil, wd-40. what's next. I want to put like a pipe on the end of the handle to make ti like 2 feet long but I don't...

I kinda understood what you said. How'd you know they didn't have a tq plate? (sorry if thats noobish again) Yea i know its over.. move on...

im confused as to your point for the first part... I don't have an engine builder yet that's the thing... I'm trying to find one. I want to make sure it's going to get done right so I'm still lurking. I'm leaning towards one already that two local people have told me of. Of course, I have...

Dude, don't come into my fucking thread trying to bash me. it's much easier to just write nos instead of nitrous oxide, i know exactly what it is and what it does, I said eventually, didn't I? It's not unheard of to do it... If I'm not going to get help, I'd rather you just not respond...

Yea but, the thing is, while I have everything out and gutted, I want to start the REBUILD. I do have a daily, and good reliability and transportation, but I only have about 3,000(and more the longer this goes on.. that's what I could spend today) THanks for your post, that's much better...

OH, so, now the new opinion is stay stock, correct?

I've already said, well maybe I haven't... I made my build thread on sf. I'm shooting for 10 psi, 20 or more on track 500-600 hp. THat would be sufficient enough for me. So god damnit everyone, can I ask the big question. Should I lower the C/R and to what rate? or will stock...
