If you have read IJ posts about his attempts to switch I don't think you will be doing it any time soon. He is a very very smart man and has spend god knows how many hours attempting this and still hasn't got it under control. His last attempt was a huge leap but he is going to back to petrol...

Little update....
Well Machine shop is behind but I am having to deck the block but also who ever machined the head last did it on an angle and it is .010" out end to end. I ordered an HKS 2.0MM head gasket yesterday and spark plugs which should all be here tuesday!
Also got my One-piece...
Bought a Turbo from here a few years back which did not have matching numbers and also had some of the numbers ground off the housing! Then he basically told me that is what you ordered even tho it was not what was pictured or described... I say stay away!
As mentioned before I used blast...

Hey IJ,
Well went to the machine shop and they are suggesting that I deck the block..... They are saying .007 - .010" What do you think? The reasoning being is the stock gasket wear in the block (132XXXmiles). I will of course be running a MHG but should I let them do that and go with a...
Hey Sean,

Hopefully we will, would love to see this thing in person and meet you!
Thanks,
Seth
Fingers crossed, it shouldn't as all the dimensions are based off a 7M motor. We will see when he gets it but I pray...not.... But it should fit ok! ;)
Thanks,
Seth

Yea Scott's was my first for the 2J. Turned out ok but would have changed some things now seeing it in person. We will be working on a new one for him in the future!
Seth
I like your thinking!...lol Wish I met you back when I lived in Wash!
Soak them in carb cleaner or brake cleaner and if it won't come off with just a tooth brush or 3M scrubbing pad but I would only use a stainless wire wheel as a last resort.
HTH,
Seth
Very Nice Sir!
Shows what a proper tune allows these cars to do!
How many miles on the motor?
I know I have seen a picture of the engine bay but a new picture would be nice!

Seth

Hey guys,
Here is a manifold I just completed for a member here on the forums with a 2J in MK3! It is a short runner custom with my latest housing design(square). I think it turned out better then I expected for the square housing!
