No glue or anything used recently...

Im starting to lean towards the fact that the engine needed a rebuild that Oil vapours might have been the cause of this...

No one else has had this problem?

Re: Wildest engine I have seen

Wow Cheater, Thats a Donk! But looking at it, apart from the obvious size difference, and the Crosshead design, it still functions similar to most engines. Amazing power figures but!! And GalantGTO is right, that motor drives a generator mounted in the Truck body and that in turn drives some massive...

Re: LB lancer 4g63

What an awesome package! A mint LB just sold in Sydney for $1300, combine that with not having to modify the firewall to fit a twin cam turbo... LB and LCs are a good option! Plus the Hatches look pretty sweet, especially compaired to a 4 door sigma! Very nice mate! HP output? or is it pretty stock ...
