DISLEXICDIME Posted April 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 They ran both wires that are supposed to go to a 12 volt positive. To the negative side of the coil. You get that car running yet? Quote Link to comment
Sinnful Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 still playing with that stupid ass header, not liking how everything is fitting but on the bright side, got my new rims and tires on tho. i think it looks pretty sweet. still working on it, goal is May 1 Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted April 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Just buy a cheap e bay header my cousin got his for 60 Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 We'll I think this l20 has a blown head gasket or a cracked head. I am getting a milky pudding like discharge out of the breather on top of the valve cover. =( Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 I have a good head gasket if you want it, it's used but in great shape Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 You know, just to tie you over tell the sr gets installed. Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Or I could sell you my l20b and hitschi carbs for super cheap. I'm going Ka motor once I get to that point. Once canby became impossible I figured I might as well part with what I dont need for the quil build and going to really take my time and get what I want. I have a 280z 5 speed too Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I am so sick of l motors Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Yeah I've really been leaning towards the Ka series, fuel injection is more reliable and gets better hp. Plus sense I'm going to do the full 240sx dash and interior I might as well make it a bit easier by isin a Ka and Ka wire harness. This way I can have power windows and allege modern amenities.

DISLEXICDIME Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Thanks for the offer. But I will pull the head and asses the damage and if it is bad I will just let it sit till I get my sr going Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Dang. L motors huh? Dont throw it away. There is a ratty 4 door that needs l stuff. You already have the 5 speed mount. Nelson can do the front. That will get it in there. Then just rad and intercooler. That's where the $$$ will be spent. Do it! Sooner you start. Sooner it will get done ;) Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I could just putt a vr6 rad in it for now then all I nead is new ic pipes Quote Link to comment
philcas1987 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Do it man!!! It didn't overheat with that set up if I remember. And most the parts are there. Just do it you'll be happier. Can upgrade as you go. I'd hate to see it sit. Jeremys will sit haha mine will too. Now a third damn. Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I think I got mad and cut all the hoses to get it out because it was such a cluster fux Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 I pulled the head today on the l20b the w53 is a closed chamber and some one eyebrowed the block so this engine was rebuilt at one time . It looks like the head. Gaskit failure was between piston 3 and 4 . Now I am just waiting for charlie to let me know when I can bring the head bye to be checked out. I will have to check to see what size piston's are in it . To bad who ever rebuilt this engine used a cheep roll head gasket . Quote Link to comment
Sinnful Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 yeah get that shit fixed, Jeremy came over tonight and we got some more done on my car. I can't wait to drop it on the ground cause like I'm tucking 16's front and rear Quote Link to comment
