Eagle_Adam Posted January 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hard to tell, but looks a little crooked like it's cross threaded. You could try putting a nut over it and mig the nut to the bolt through the nut, but risk damage to your coating... It might be cross threaded.... Rookie mistake And I don't have a welder so the heads coming off :/ Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Serious in the sense that it's a plausible way to get out a broken bolt, but not so much when it comes to doing it in tight quarters with fresh paint :P Agreed. That one does looks like a bitch to get at though :blink: :lol: ... I'm no master welder either :lol: Best luck Adam ! Quote Link to comment

I ended up replacing almost half of the kit I got. The right one to buy is Nissan or frsport.com Quote Link to comment
BlackBird620 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Coulda, shoulda, woulda.... Did u use studs? Sadly no but going to put an s14 head on my s13 block before I put it in the Kc and I'll swap to studs then and a cometic gasket Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 i haven't researched it much, but whats the advantage of the S14 head? Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Head gasket, head bolts, and a water pump gasket are on the way 2 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I like how you matched the powder coat to the timing marked links on the timing chains. :rofl: 1 Quote Link to comment
BlackBird620 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 i haven't researched it much, but whats the advantage of the S14 head? Lol well with my bottom end build I'll be turning almost 10.9:1 compression power baby. The s14 head flows a lot better than the s13 head intake and exhaust and cools a little better Quote Link to comment

mrbigtanker Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 What timing chain kits did you buy,or timing chain tensenors. Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 mines a mix between a couple kits the kit i originally bought was not the right one, and i ended up welding the tensioner oil caps for piece of mind and buying new guides to replace the plastic ones i got. if you want the right kit then buy a nissan one if you have the $ to blow or visit http://www.frsport.com/ and buy theirs. the rest are garbage from the research ive done just ask phil......... He fucked his whole motor cus of the timing kit he put in 3 Quote Link to comment
