rdavid0412 Posted December 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I installed the new P/S bracket and pressed the pulley back on with no issues. I wen to instal the balancer and of course they ordered one for a car and not a truck!!!!!!! The right one should be in on WED. I pulled the intake manifold off, performed the coolant mod because the TBSS TB doesn't have the provisions. Not I have to mod the fuel rails, and the crossover tube so I can get the TBSS intake installed. Friday I will probably order the X-link 3.0. Once I came to a stopping point o the Intake I had my buddy come over and we removed the rear seat to build an amp rack. We also fixed my pillar pod. More to come as I/we make some more progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdavid0412 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I got a great deal on some RP oils. $40 per case of 6 quarts and $5 K&N oil filters. So I stocked up on a couple cases and plenty of filters. My 3.5" pulley and extra crank pins came in today too!!!!!! Now if the rest of my parts would come in today it would be awesome!

rojo_143 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Today before work I changed the plugs and checked the plug wires to find out I have 3 burnt wires..... My Fluidampner and my new wires should be in by Friday. Does anyone have any pics of their Drivers Side Plug wires? Of coures with headders? I'm curious to see my options Not sure if you have solved this problem or not but I had the same issue with mu OBX headers when i had my SS I had to fabricate a anchor shaped plug wire holder to hold the wires away from the headers. I am at work right now so i don't have a picture but when I get home I will look for it and post it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am at work right now so i don't have a picture but when I get home I will look for it and post it up. Thanks, but as of now I feel I have the problem taked care of. Instead of buying another set of MSD wires, I bought a set of Taylor wires because they have shorter boots on the plug side. I then doubled up on the DEI spark plug wire boots. So far I have ran my truck for a couple of months like this and I haven't had any issues. The main issues were on #5 and #7 cyl. on #5 cyl, I custom made an MSD wire to go completely around the headder to avoid any contact. I was also turned onto the idea of using small pieces of stainless tig wire and bending those pieses to secure the wires away from any contacy and using existing bolt holes to do so. If what I did in the above paragraph fails, the tig wire trick will be the next trick I try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
