Cheers EB_GLi92

Well, I bought a rocker cover from pick-a-part on Friday. So I cleaned all the oil off it and placed it

Next, I started the car, then thrashed it!
The new cam is awesome. It's got power as soon as I lift the clutch where as the other one lagged for a little bit.
I just need to get my real rocker cover back from getting painted, then it will complete.

Other than that, I have to replace my heater core, and replace my timing cover gasket and my car will be leak free! Oh yeah!

by **John_LS1** » April 27th, 2008, 5:08 pm

told you it was a good cam, now give it back

by **ORSMEB** » April 28th, 2008, 9:22 pm

Lol. I'll tell you it's good when I get my dyno power figure...

by **BLKPHN** » April 29th, 2008, 4:22 pm

from what i hear that dyno figure is not to far away!!

i hope to see some good numbers...

by **ORSMEB** » April 29th, 2008, 4:56 pm

I dropped it off to EFI Dynamics in Lilydale today!

They are going to give me a dyno figure after dialling the cam in and checking other stuff.

I CAN'T WAIT!

by **ORSMEB** » May 2nd, 2008, 8:00 pm

Well well. I received my car back today from EFI Dynamics in Lilydale.
Errol did some adjusting and upped the power a little from what it was!
They're interesting numbers, because I had 148.2 from another dyno, but this final reading definitely feels like more power - and more usable power.

From 345.8 Nm to 366.6 Nm. It's funny when standard torque is 360 Nm!
Is that flywheel Nm? Is there such a thing as flywheel Nm?

Tell me what you think..

by **ClassicAU** » May 6th, 2008, 7:58 pm

Hey Steve! How's it going mate? Nice work on the numbers there! I bet she feels a fair bit lighter now! Looks like we are running pretty similar numbers at the moment, although mine is as overweight as its driver!

I received my newly painted rocker cover back from Low_XR and am extremely happy with the job.
It has come out a treat.
I also picked up a mini pod for the rocker cover..

by **EB_GLI92** » May 13th, 2008, 6:59 pm

rocker cover looks a treat

does that filter get enough air down there :?:

by **ORSMEB** » May 14th, 2008, 6:49 am

Not sure! How would I find out? The car runs, so I think it does!

by **Alesia** » May 14th, 2008, 9:10 am

steve, need to get that little back bumper problem fixed and get this car to sandown

by **ORSMEB** » May 14th, 2008, 5:54 pm

Lol Alesia! I know! Give me another 6 months and it might be fixed!

by **[Sterling]** » May 14th, 2008, 5:57 pm

its hardly noticable dude!!!

by **ORSMEB** » July 28th, 2008, 6:26 pm

Well, after 2 months, I thought it was time to do something.

I got the rear damage fixed and installed an EF/EL Fuelcap to replace my EB one..
Funny thing is, I have had this cap painted black for at least 1 and a half years! 3 cheers for laziness..lol

I'll just let the photo's speak for themselves..

Steve i think... you need a Airbox... and hard line some of the rubber hose's going every where...

by **ORSMEB** » July 29th, 2008, 5:48 pm

Cheers Eren!

Tristan, you might be right. I definitely need more air forced in. And a bit of tidying up under the hood couldn't help either!

That's what I was thinking!
It's a different manifold to the EF-EL setup..

by **t1MMy** » July 30th, 2008, 8:07 pm

Yeah, looks heaps neater than the EF/EL type.

by **Phoenix** » July 30th, 2008, 11:24 pm

Cheers mate. I'd have to say, I agree with Jared. Coloured side moulds are for other cars which came out with from factory. I personally like mine being grey.
