Pictures of said milky crap might help, too. A little is generally ok. A lot is not. However, those are really subjective measurements...

Did you check the mechanical timing that Shaeff mentioned? If so, how did you check it?

ftfy.

Could be worse. We've all done something similar at least once. I neglected to blow out the head bolt holes on my 22R when I replaced the head. Head gasket popped in less than 100 miles because the oil in the head bolt holes didn't stay there, so my torque went from 70 to nada on most of 'em...

Ah, in that case I don't know. I thought about doing that myself, but after checking the space behind the dash unit, I gave up on it. You would have to make some serious structural modifications to the dash itself to give you enough room for an adapter harness back there, nevermind the...

I'm afraid I don't know the details on the flex plate, all mine have been 5 speed cars. However, having been here for a long time, I've seen the loose flexplate culprit pop up reasonably regularly over the years. As for the valvetrain, yes, this is a shim over bucket head and it doesn't sound...

I've always thought they'd just add a plug on the side of your skull for a sensor mounted on the rifle itself. Eliminates all the complex math describing how to put the reticule in the correct place, and essentially lets you target right down the bore of the weapon. Also lets you fire from...

Absolutely. Pretty easy to check, too, just need to pull the valve covers and run a feeler gauge between the cams and shims. Auto make the loose flexplate likely. It's one of the things that sounds exactly like RK, and it's caused quite a few false alarms.

As in, the female ones on the end of the dash harness? Yes... he got me a couple.

When they get image stabilization, color, zoom, and record, I'm in for one. Just imagine the porn you'll be able to get from that!

Check all the other likely culprits... loose front main damper pulley bolt, loose flywheel / flexplate, and accessories that run off the belts.

I'm not surprised. Add me to the list of people to talk to when you get there. Don't forget to factor in something for the R&D work, and wear on the machine tools. Admittedly, if you're using someone else's gear to make 'em, you may not have to *pay* these costs, but it's nice to know what...

Agreed. k20maniac: If you're not going to teach the new members HOW to search, don't post. There is a link in my sig that explains why, please read it. To the OP - there are some interesting facts about our search engine. We have had to make some trade offs that you wouldn't see on most...

Bring him up here and let him line up against me. Failing that, Duane. :D We'll see who vanishes in the rear view mirror then!

From my point of view, the aluminum ones have a couple advantages. AL may be more costly by the pound, however, it's also significantly less dense, so that will mitigate the materials cost significantly. More importantly, anyone can install the AL set in their own garage with a freezer to...

Try to right click and Save As from PB.

Did some digging on those Panasports... seem they've come in several designs, most of which are nowhere near as sexy as the ones posted here... :(

Old??!! Pot, meet Kettle. ;) I'm not going to argue with the rim king, that's for damn sure. And I agree on those Panasports, they are damn fine looking wheels.

Make him carry a couple extra fat chicks.

Evidently not that sure. Ya, I knew he was from SoCal... I picked them up from 935 a few years back.
