Hey Everyone,
I think I've finally solved the problem with my engine after the cam
install.
First, I'd like to officially thank all you guys for your help (yes,
even Mark K.)
I couldn't have done it without your advice and troubleshooting.
It was the black plastic unit that looks like a disc that I assume controls
the opening and closing of the EGR valve. It has a vacuum line from the
manifold and to the EGR valve, the line to the EGR valve had a blockoff on it
(since I got rid of the EGR valve). Anyway I looked at the underside of the
unit and it had been melted by something. So I took a gamble and filled the
melted area (wich I assumed might be causing loss of vacuum) with RTV red. I
noticed the difference pretty quickly and it keeps pulling stronger as the
computer readjusts.
The engine is now a total screamer now. Pulls strong to about 5800-5900
RPM. I can tell it is starving for air though. I think I'm gonna make the M1
manifold my next project (along with heads).
I'm also gonna try swapping back in the 24# injectors to see if they work
better now.
Has anyone come up with a good way of installing the MP 4bbl TB? Or is
there a way of flowing more air though modifying the 2bbl TB (currently
running a 52mm).
What kind of heads do you guys recommend I go with? Any suggestions on
who to have do the work? I notice some places have 3 angle valve jobs and
some have 5 angle, what is the difference?
