Note that you should not hammer it until the motor is warmed up. He says it but I don't think most people read that part.

it's sold

It is common for it to be lower on the #1 due to many factors which I will not go into right now. The main thing is which injector did you replace? It looks like the #1 has a leaky injector and is washing down the cylinder.

"Spark plug electrodes are totally consumed during a pass. After 1/2 way, the engine is dieseling from compression-plus the glow of exhaust valves at 1400 degrees F. The engine can only be shut down by cutting off it's fuel flow." from http://www.wediditforlove.com/techtalk6.html

Edelbrock IAS are great for street cars. Stiff when you need them, soft the rest of the time.

You break in a motor by starting it and revving the hell out of it.... cold? I hope you built it well, that's all.

Get it in writing that the head is free from defects and is known to be good. Make sure it is signed and dated. At least then you will have a basic line of defense. Small claims usually sides with the plaintiff.

I'm not complaining but I don't see a problem with a person driving with one arm. Millions of people do it and you don't know the situation but you are basing an opinion off of your presumptions. You're also not the police and I could give two shits whether you let me stay. I have provided a...

I think you miss the point.... They give licenses to peopple with no feet They give licenses to people with one arm They give licenses to people with one eye They give licenses to people like you So what's the big deal?

More like 800hp per cylinder and the spark plugs are only there to get it running. Once it reaches temp and the gas pedal is pushed the fuel will ignite just from the pressure in the cylinder. This is why you often see a lot of unburned fuel coming out when they roll to the line...

If you have a 30amp outlet you can easily weld 1/4". The Italian welder is probably a Clarke.

if you don't have a billion pounds of useless crap on your Jeep you will be fine. Those roof racks, tire racks, shovels, and other stuff just add more reason to break something.

I have about $45 into mine but I don't have an airtank. I used a square D pressure switch for a full size air compressor about $20http://ecatalog.squared.com/catalog/173/html/sections/20/ filter, oiler, and seperator from Harborfreight $15 Hose from CarQuest $3 Hose barbs from True Value $7

I don't believe this for a second. Colder plugs are not a bandaid they are a necessity for one reason compression=heat heat= preignition running higher octane than needed is a bandaid, and colder spark plugs is the fix.

Let's talk about boost and spark plugs... I am planning a supercharged stroker and am looking at some of the finer details. First what I know: When you add higher compression like a N/A 11:1 ratio or adding a Supercharger or turbo you need to lower the heat range on the plug to prevent...
