jabbott126 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Now that i can post in this forum I can finally start posting updates on my MPI build. I picked up this conquest 3 months ago from a kid here in Muskegon MI. I traded him my 93 civic and he added another $1000 on top. I got the Car with the new head torn apart and the previous owner said that the timing was off. So we brought it over to my place and got started on it. We had it running within about 4 hours. We noticed it was burning coolant so we shut it off and investigated. Found that it had a bad gasket in the intake. The coolant was going right into the intake. So I rebuild the throttle body and replaced the sensors on the intake. She ran good for about 1 month then i was going down the highway and started over heating. Pulled off, but it was to late. So As of right now the motor is pulled and i have it torn down. IM LOOKING FOR A INTAKE TO USE IF YOU HAVE ONE FOR SALE PLEASE PM ME!!!! http://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/100_1055.jpg http://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/100_1056.jpg http://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/enginebay.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/enginestand2.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/bearings1.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/bearings2.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/enginestand2.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/Enginestand1.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/oilpan.jpghttp://i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t508/jabbottonline/559279_10150979713009401_1044461234_n.jpg So as you can see the bearings were SHOT. one was spun and close to denigration.

jabbott126 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Ok FINALLY back ion the swing of things!!! I had to hold off till after holidays becasue of money issue but i have made progress. Update: Got an Intake and a Header!!! so with that outta the way I stripped down everything out of my engine bay and painted it with chasie saver ( Very high quiality under coating). I did this becasue i plan on painting the car black after the build is done and it looks very nice. I will be getting My D2 shortly ( probly with tax cash) and along with that all the suspension goodies like sway bars and poly bushing kit for my control arms and sway bar liknks and stuff.
