As Drunkie said pop off side cover...I made a pvc pipe gauge pod so that I didn't hack up the ball...if I ever sell it can put it completely back to stock...I would only get a WB if you but a tuner and want to start doing your own tuning....otherwise you will see your AFR but won't be able to do anything about it if its not right...HPT pro with WB FTW

Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

Not bad if you order all your parts before you tear it apart haha...got all pissed off and ripped it apart then had to wait a week for the parts to arrive...gaskets aren't hard depending on your mechanic skills
 
Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

I'm gonna order evera thing before I do it, sc oil, lim and supercharger gaskets, I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things. Did you do valve cover gaskets as well?
 
Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

And as far as mechanic skills I'm pretty nifty, I know how to turn a wrench, just gotta remember where everything goes lol, I can tare apart in semi hermedic air condition compressor, which is pretty much a 6cyl motor. I hope I can handle this haha. How long, if all materials were at hand, would you say this till you?
 
Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

I really don't remember how long it took me I got interupted to many times...basically buy anything and everything you can think of and do it all while you have it apart...I did LIM gaskets SC gasket SC oil Coolant Elbows...oh and a broken plug wire again!!!
 
LIM should only take you a few hours tops. I did mine in a weekend only because I focused on cleaning a bunch of crap and painted some things as well and then I had a cell phone there distracting me. Air tools aren't going to really speed up the process either. In this case handtools FTW
 


Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

Good to see another member that is scanning their car, and has a way to tune.
Great looking car.
You said you were doing a cam though, why lose money over rockers now?
Also hope you put in the blue or orange valve cover gasket set with new grommets, and not the junk black plastic that leaks oil after a few months of heat cycles.
 
Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

Yeah valve cover gaskets are orange felpro with blue grommets...I wanted to do a cam still do just got a good deal on rockers and had the extra money...or should I say wife didn't say no for once hahahaha...I want to do a NIC but have yet to find one for a good price
 
Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

Its coming along man, another one to tackle the LIM gaskets good job. Really not hard i was scared cuz it was my first time gettin that deep but only took me 6-7hrs.Did a few other things while i was at it. Post some vids of your ride man maybe a couple pulls.
 
Re: 04CompDD-Updated 12-2

Yeah it was pretty easy just took so long because I spread it out over a week haha...Yeah I will have to do some vids pulls pretty hard deff a beast compared to stock! When you going to toss in a PLOG?
