Do I hear an echo in here?
>BTW there IS a block design >difference between years (95-96 & >97-99).. What would those changes be and are they significant? Obviously the measurements haven't changed neither has the cooling passages since any yr head gasket and internals will work.
>Here's what I want to know >(cut and paste and fill >in): > >*Car BRAND (Talon/Eclipse/Avenger)..... Talon
>*Model Year ... 95 Early Fuel >System
>*Total Mileage at time of incident ..... Dont know used engine 109K on the car. Not really an incident it took about a month before it became undriveable
>*Total Mileage Turboed ......none. maybe a total of 40lbs of nitrous spread across a yr period. >*PSI on Turbo .....none at the time. seldom 70 shot dry >*Fuel System Setup ..... NOS regulator/stock
>*Internals.... Bone stock > >*Any timing tuning? .... No
>*What went wrong .....A barely noticeable tick that was diagnosed to be the early stages of a bearing gone bad. A month later the tick turned into a knock which turned into what sounded like 50 nuts and bolts were thrown into the crankcase at which point I stopped driving it.
Oh and I never mentioned it but Gtuned.com looks like its gonna be one of the best personal sites so far. Love the AFC tuning.
