one video of timing

 

ok so could this be the noise lol!! rocker arm is rubbing on the valve cover!

 

umm.. just pointing out something.. I dont think u should use that radiator underneith ur table work bench.. u had a transmission sitting on it.. i dont think its gunnabe good anymore..

 

its a table saw dumbass hahahaha

 

bottom end is fine

i found that one rocker arm hits the valve cover, same on my other motor....wierd

 

so just shout out offers lol (pm me), u know i spent a lot but let me know what ur willing to pay

 

HaHA.. oh ok i see it now... WELL, Dont try to use that table saw to cut up the tranny... i dont think it will work to well..

 

My offer is $900 just for the bottom end,


excluding the head since I have a good one anyways.

I still would prefer the 8:8:1 compression because then I could probably run the stock tephra rom anyways

 

Stock, like timing map? I dun think you could without crying over broken motor.

 

I think hornstar is right evos run incredibly high timing then run pig rich on top to compensate. At least from what I've read and been told

 

well that what I was thinking, basically try running the entire map without changing anything.

But then I again I say I am probably wrong because I forgot the 4G63 is a little bit bigger and is Dohc...

ok never mind I take that back lol

 

I think the issue is that our motor is a "stroker", which can't handle the timing, and like you said the dohc. There's no shame in not being able to run the Evo maps, I'm sure those guys who put 2.4L motors in their evos have to significantly adjust timing as well. Be proud to wear your own timing map! Show your unique setups to the world, without fear.

I'm still confused why Zulu bought a new engine....what was the deal, just the noise from the head? And you are getting it fixed anyway to sell it? I dun get it....But I saw a dude on a bike checking the buick out this morning, soon as it sells I'll have a cool 1500 ready to spend.....probably on painting the kitchen though, because I owe the wife that much for sure.

 

Im running the evo maps, its like 21 advanced timing at like 4000 RPM at 90% load haha Just put in your old lancer values or lower the timing, thats what i did

 

i just loweredc it, looks like I need to raise it because when I wot I loose so much power because it goes rich
