msp build parts (preview!!....:)
- Thread starter sandspeed
- Start date
Yeah, I talked to him on the phone a few times in the past few weeks until real recent. He never gave me his number though. hmm ...
I was hoping by now I would have a pm with tracking from him but still nothing...(notcool)(notcool) x2
I'm starting to think that he bailed on everyone he owes on here and that I'm not going to get the mani or even a refund. Looks like I'll be saving up some money for the Hiboost T3 manifold or a Steedspeed mani.<- i believe he made some with a T3 flange but not sure though.
I have the steedspeed mani, its a nice piece. I don't think that he made any with the T3 flange, however I think he said he would.
Same thing with me. He called me from a restricted number
That's what I call ******* shady.
Well today I found out that I have some pretty bad piston slap and one or more of my valves are bent. 
We found that when we drained my oil there is metal in it somehow. Also my oil pressure is really low on starts ups. I'm pretty pissed off because the engine was built but apparently not all that well..
The good news is that I had the AC fixed , boy is it nice because its been hell driving around in the summer heat.
I'm taking the cylinder head off very soon to replace the valvetrain with all Supertech parts and crower cams. We will be able tell whats going on with the internals.

just think almost a year ago you were gonna put the sleeper mani on with the sc61 you just should of done that lol
lol yup. Looking back , I wish that I had spent the extra cash at the time to weld on a T3 flange and external wastegate tube. Live and learn
How long is the clutch break-in time? Clutch Masters recommends at least 500 miles in stop and go style driving. I've never had to break in a clutch since I bought my car used and have been riding the stock clutch. Anyone have any tips on how to properly break in a clutch? thanks guys
wow....your gonna have HELL with the motor mounts and a pucked clutch. Coming out of a light it's gonna be "holly vibrations batmans!"
Clutch break in is yea 500miles stop and go. Don't go full throttle for a little while too. Wait it out. It'll be even more gratifying when you smash after waiting those 500 miles too.

Its really quick and light. I'm starting to get used to it, at first I was like holy s*** this thing is sensitive, but the more miles I drive the better the clutch feels. One thing with a 4puck you definitely can't ride the clutch like if it was stock. Its either you go or you don't. I can already tell that WOT shifts are going to be very fun.
I was only able to install the front mount which helped stiffen up the engine quite a bit. The rear mount is going in when I get the side mount.
The rear is a b**** why didn't the people install it? Did they give you an excuse?
Yea that is true, the rear mount isn't easy to get to like the front but , the cylinder head is coming off soon so I'll be able to easily install the rear motor mount at that point.
