Will Turbo'd Gibbs ever run again?
#41
TurboGibbs, You are a man of my own heart. I believe that I'm the first person ever, to modify a MP1 intake (That's a Dodge word) and incorperate it with a supercharger application. I also used a carb intake spacer between the throttle body and intake manifold to installed my w/m injectors into.

I'm still having a little coolant leaking past the head gaskets tonight. I'm going to give it a few more heat cycles and see what happens. I checked the torque on the 1 head stud I can get to while hot and it was fine. didn't budge. I'll wait till it cools in the morning and check it again. I'm going to have to re-do my eboost2 sensing lines. There is a couple different ways you can configure them and currently with setting at 0 I can build 15 psi

Well, I had ~ 3 qts of water in the oil. No steel on the mag drain plug and the amount of brg material in the oil filter is very little to none. Or nothing more than you'd expect from a first oil change. i'm really hoping and thinking that the water is leaking into the oil from the head gasket into the lifter area. I have a hard time believing that water would be leaking past the o-ring around the cyl. I'll pull the plugs and maybe that will tell me something and probably pull the pan. I think i'll start drinking before lunch today.

Well the oil pan is off and I checked #3 main brg and #8 rod and they look great so i'm going to put it back together, pull the plugs and check them and add some super duper stop leak. I used Moroso Ceramic Seal before with copper gaskets and had really good luck. You have to use it with pure water then drain after running and let sit. I may try something that mixes with antifreeze.
