Valves, pistons, con rods, valve springs&retainers. This way you can completely build the motor for higher RPMs to take advantage of a bigger turbo down the road. Then swapping cams out is easy later.

Ouch! That really sucks Colin :( I'm sure you will re-build it and make it even better than before! Are you gonna do any headwork since it's going to need a rebuild anyway?

Not sure yet, gotta look into it, make phone calls, find pricing, re check my empty wallet and just think about what I'm going to do. Considering a stroker kit, not sure just yet though, doing valves, rods, and pistons for sure......

Ouch, looks like you are acting quick on the repairs though!

Wanted to get it apart and examine, if there was no damage, new belt and tensioner and I would have been set to go after tuesday.

Hate to see those things happen, as I've been down that road before.

Best of luck on the rebuild!

Thanks!

Jeez Colin, hope to see it running soon bud.

Working on it, looking like it wont be till next year, but its going to be a beast I think.

So 13 teeth total.



8 bent valves

Re: BaggedGLI - The Rebuild

True true.

So there is one section of the belt missing 13 teeth. Down the line, maybe 15-20 teeth down there is one individual one missing. Still waiting to get the belt fully out to see anything else.

Re: BaggedGLI - The Rebuild

My car is broken! but my new axle is on the way

Same here I snaped one clean at race city

Re: BaggedGLI - The Rebuild

That kind of damage is generally caused by a 5 to 2 downshift generally up hills at a higer rpm causing valve float and piston contact.Head will have to come off.

I was doing 20km/hour in a residential area while making a turn and it started ticking, i pushed the clutch in and it sputtered out, so I coasted it to ryans house which was like 3 houses down and parked it at the end of his driveway. 2nd gear at about 1,200 rpm. I know how these engines go, I don't think it's pretty but I'm hoping.
