I'm replacing the head on my 96 celi. Fried some valves with nitrous... Lol.. Learned my lesson tho. Anyway. I've noticed this new head I picked up doesn't have a water outlet for the intake manifold. And mine does.. Can I just drill a hole? It looks like it would be fine. But I want expert opinion. And does the intake really need coolant going through it? Thanks in advance. Need am answer asap so I can get back on the road. 7afe btw

It made quite an amazing amount of torque. 65 wet shot. Cylinder 1 got lean because its farthest from the intake. Melted the aluminum in combustion chamber so valves can't seat. . This hole I'm talking about is on the right side of the intake side of the head. If you're looking at the engine from the front of the car. Is it egr? Can post pictures tomorrow. My first guess was a water passage. So any way to make this head work or do I need to go back to the junkyard
Edit: yeah I'm about 90% sure its egr now... I guess this is a question if it'll work or not. Egr delete? I don't care about cel. Will it affect driveability? This post has been edited by beefstrudel: Oct 30, 2013 - 12:43 AM |
