I'm not too sure about a short Throw shifter availible for our trucks. I seen my friends 240 shifter, but compared only the amount of bolts hold it down. Never thought about it, really.

Looks great. The headers don't look oem. Is that a pacesetter? Looks like its almost ready to drive.

Nice. Good choice to go with.

Makes sense. Maybe that's what the guy did. Oh well. Please keep up the good work.

Too much compression might be a valve timing issue. I can't think of any thing else on the top of my head. I'm sorry but I would say you should check the marks on all the gears again.

True. They did some work but I remember a few that did everything without z-ing the frame for the engine. Well, keep up the good work.

Ah. Okay. I was wondering about the design. Have you given any thoughts on rolling the pinch? Also I remember a few builds on mightyd50 that layed frame without z-ing it. They pie cut the upper and lower control arms, and that's all I remember. It was a while ago.

You might have jumped timing. Have you checked compression? I would start with that, and see from there. Since your battery is fine and motor spins freely without resistance.

I replied to your post about the alternator wiring. I hope to see you updating this project on the new board. Would really like to see this finished as well as the progress your making.

I am at work right now and get off late tonight. I might be able to help you out with this one when I get home or maybe tomorrow if someone doesn't beat me to it. I still have me oem engine harness in the truck and the motor is still out. I should be able to backtrace for you. You have a picture of ...

I'm sorry but I don't quite understand the consept of the square tubing designed like that. Also, removing the engine mounts tells me you won't be using the 2.4 anymore, or you are going to do a body drop and modify where the engine sits in the bay.

Please keep us posted with an update when you do the conversion. I am really interested as to how this will turn out.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. I would have don't the same if I was in your shoes.

Ah. Okay. Makes sense.

No excuse for what?

Good choice. I took a bfh to my firewall and used the 1.8 1990 thermostat housing to keep the outlet from pointing too far into the firewall. I don't regret it cause it was more to spend.

Already? Wow. I guess L.K. Has to start another bud thread. I hope the others with build threads keep updating. Even the ones that haven't updated since January.

Wonder if he added driver and passenger windows. Lol. Sucks without em in the rain.

The nrg aftermarket hubs and quick release options are availible because of the compatibility as well. Just throwing that out.

I'll let you know ass soon as I see some pics. Lol. How are thoughs lower control arms doing for you by the way?

Wow. No updates since January. I wonder if this guy is still going.

I have small speakers in my doors already. Been meaning to change em out to something not broken.

With torsion bars, all you have to do is use a tape measure to a specified point, and crank on the adjustment point to the desired ride height. You can go a little deeper and re index the torsion bar, but that involves removing the torsion bar and reinstalling the torsion bar in a reindexed manner. ...

Did you find a place yet? I think some people would go to eBay and get rebuild kits from there. Otherwise a webber carb is always an option.

Too much codes I think. Looks really good though. What about a front and rear view to see how far they flare out.

This is usually what I liked to do when I was into hondas. ^^^^ the optional armrest started it, then to the dash clock, then the fog lights, and etc.

Can't get much better then oem. You can always swap the rear end for aftermarket support. The ford explorer 8.8 rear end is a popular setup. Rear disc brakes and LSD. Also the Toyota rear end swap is another option. A little more narrow and more work then just a custom driveshaft. If not then a Mits...

Link to alternator upgrade thread. both with very good information.

The limited slip rear end are oem in the 4x4 models as well as older monteros 4x4. Didn't want to make a thread in the wanted section? Or are you just looking for information?
