So finally got some time to get back to working on it because work was a little slow today. Got the head off and there was oil all over the gasket both sides. Cylinder looked good no scars in it or anything. Just kinda went with my gut for taking the thing apart (never done a head gasket on an...

I'm about 75% sure I know what is up now. I think somehow I blew the head gasket or the oil rings. It seems like these are the types of symptoms of either of those with the burning tons of oil, pouring out of the exhaust, leaking from the between the head and cylinder. So guess my next step is...

I heard there was a mention of turbocharging something unconventional and just had to peek in here. Replied to PM and any more questions just ask and I'll try my best

Yeah I think its around those numbers. Of course me being impatient at times didn't measure how much fluid goes into the lines turbo etc which I had initially planned on doing before ever starting it. Yeah they were fairly cheap and figured I'd replace both so they'd match. Yeah I think...

Been working hard the past couple days but finally today I had free time so after going for a little cruise on the street bikes and washing my car and cruising in my car for a little bit I got to work on the bike now that the parts are in. Some good news and some interesting/bad news. Good news...

Hmmm those aren't bad pricewise. May pick a new one up rather then welding the old POS back together and hoping it holds

Hmmmm. Very interesting. Yeah right now its unrideable sadly because the clutch and the spitting oil problem. (Clutch is I broke the handle somehow so I can't pull the clutch in until I fix it or get a new one:( )

Yeah I think on the bottle it said ok for wet clutches or something? I think I may have found on of the problems with the oil leaking ^^^The bolt I had left loose was completely out on the turbo. Hoping that was just letting the oil get past into the turbo itself causing the pouring out of...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4YzvzobKIA Got under a quart of oil in it and still smoking like no other. Going to try tightening everything up and order a new exhaust pipe gasket (for between the head and the exhaust pipe) if I can't find the original. But it is spinning a little better now...

Sweet. Yeah just keep updating this. Its very interesting and awesome what your doing making it better then ever

Yeah I walk past them in the store and when you put up your picture of yours thats what instantly popped into my head

They have Mopars over there too? Those things are sweet.

Thanks man. The race track is where my addiction to modifying vehicles began. Going up there to watch my dad's buddy's 1967 Chevy Nova SS with a SBC with a procharger I think it is. Car is spotless and is in the 8's in the 1/4th and still streetable. Chromed out engine bay etc. Got me wanting to...

This is awesome. Spent at the very least an hour reading and looking at it all. Soooo tempting to start something like this for myself now. If only there was room. Reminds me of things like the CBR engines in the golf carts. Keep up the amazing work. You have some great fabrication skills

Got a soft spot in my heart for some Weld Racing Rims. You guys have some interesting vehicles over there. Some look absolutely amazing. I'm more of a car person So bare with me while I post some pictures of my babies Heres the engine bay of my 2003 Crown Victoria LX Sport (just rolled over...

Those are really good deals you got. I need to keep my eyes open to try and find used ones. I was just looking at new at the time. But I'm sure they keep in handy. Off to search for dune buggy awesomeness
