So, the ole 87 Quest was starting to sound like a Blackhawk helo and making me feel quite distressed. I removed the t-chain cover and inspected the goods. Last year I replaced the t-chain and gears and decided to leave the silent shafts in place. Once I got the cover off...again, I noticed alot of end play in tha left silent shaft. Should there be any end play?? Would a bad silent shaft bearing cause this crazy sound? When the BSEK is installed, are both silent shafts removed? Has anybody heard

Hello all, Ive decided to share some of my progress on my project. Its going to be a slow restoration but hopefully i dont take to long to start to enjoy the starquest.   This is how the starion stood when i got it home after purchasing it back in September 2013. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t173/zapien85/starquest/IMG_20130727_131803_zpsd85427bd.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t173/zapien85/starquest/IMG_20130727_131837_zpsc7b6fd37.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t173/zapien

As usual in my starion life I need yet another part.   I need a bare block. Good, obviously. I will be boring 1.0mm over, so I am ok with needing bored. I guess the one I have was welded around the water jackets? idk.   As close to SoCal as possible.   Thanks Tony

Didn't find the answer in search-would u use Felpro 9116pt, oR Victor Reinz 3697, (stated as VR2000 material, graphite coated)? 88 quest stick, with ARP headstuds, will retorge. Exhaust will be upgraded to 3", turbo was bored larger, will go higher with boost when air ratio guage and pyrometer and either injectors or maf upgrade swap is done. Current boost is limited to 7 lbs with seperate controller. Thanks for your help and opions. lenny
