Got a used short block in my garage that I got to strip down and take to a machine shop

Anyone know a good place to get head? I mean... get a cylinder head I am thinking about using the head on my stock block but if I can find a used one that is still in good shape, I might build a full long block instead.

They have cylinder heads or are they just a machine shop?

Just about to send them an email and perhaps I'll call them at lunch.

It just occurred to me that having a hood scoop can be really annoying at times. Why? Some people think you want to race when all you want to do is get through traffic (without being an asshat of course). Either that or I am just being paranoid.

This is just part1, but its really a great watch if you guys have the time. I think its 45min in total. Makes me want to get into this kinda thing..

Le rear end clunking has returned.

If its bad endlinks, how do I diagnose it?

Get under there and man handle the RSB, wiggle it every which way. If there's noise or play, you'll hear/see it.

While the bracket is bolted down, or do I have to loosen it?

Leave everything bolted up...just give it a good wiggle around (I mean like really heave on it, just be careful obviously if the car is up on jack stands). Also visually inspect it and throw a wrench on each bolt (brackets and endlinks top/bottom) to see that everything is snug. Every time I've fixed someone's RSB noise it's been very obvious where it was coming from once I got under there.

[SomeGuy]

Oh and if you're under there and have greasable fittings, throw a few pumps in while you're at it. Never hurts

Also check your struts while you're at it, make sure they're tight (when suspension is unloaded, wiggle side to side) and no fluid is leaking.

Thanks for the vid. I like this kind of stuff. The MightyCarMods channel is great as well if you haven't checked them out already.

[fywdyl]

Checked the bolts, everything seems fine. No broken brackets. One of the heat shields came loose, that may have been the sound.

[SomeGuy]

Christ...why is it that bad?

Makes me wonder how much further you can push the sky active. Seems like a lot of research and development already went to supposedly getting the turbo on it.
