Kraske Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 I can find another 215/25r18 if you're in a good enough mood to have it replaced before running them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin H Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Got the updated heater core for 850/70 series if anyone's interested. Was supposed to go into the GF's car but it got totalled. $30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goobernoodles Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I realize this is question depends on the person, but is rebuilding an engine something someone with fairly basic/novice car knowledge can tackle? I'm wondering if I should buy an engine lift and find a junk yard engine to build up in my own time, but I'm not really sure where I'd start. The most I've ever done is a PCV replacement - I haven't even done a timing belt change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappo Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 I think you mean engine stand. There are some specialized tools that are needed, but you man be able to rent them when you get to that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw this the other day on RSI and thought I might grab a set since there on sale, $89.99 each for h-beam rods.http://yhst-26451710505916.stores.yahoo.net/hcoroforvowh.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraske Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Times I don't enjoy having an extra cylinder: 1. When buying rods individually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappo Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 They do that because you can use the same rods for the early S40 4 cyclinder engines. I have 4 H-beam rods I can sell. RSI cannot match them to give you 5, already tried that last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraske Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 They do that because you can use the same rods for the early S40 4 cyclinder engines. And on the 6 cylinders like mine, I presume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zappo Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 So they sell them individual, but in sets of 5? No, they can't match the 4 I have to give you a 5th for a white block build. I burned one up at the track last year. They were from RSI, but from 6 years ago and whoever the vendor was, they aren't dealing with them anymore. Design is slightly different so they can't match for weight. If you buy all the rods from them, they will sell you exactly what you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
