Well starting my second build finished my 1992 first gen build. Here's the start to the new project.
Here's the day I arrived in Denver I flew from my home Helena,Montana to pickup this 1998 5speed long bed 12v. Had 220k miles when I bought it while it was down in Denver it had 191 Dv's put in with a #10 plate. Stock clutch still holding up.

Then about 2 months ago decided I wanted to tab the KDP and fix the oil leak. Come to find out it fell out on the P/O and he JB welded the case so it wouldn't leak as bad.

Since then have done 5th gear twice in less than a week. Took a day and a half before it went out again after having a shop fix it the first time. After that I decided to Start saving to just rebuild the engine.

So far I've Order
63mm Turbo
T4 Manifold
188/220 Cam
HMR H11 Head studs
Billet Pushrods
Valair DD W/input and hydros.

In about 2 weeks it's going in to get all the work done machining and such. Should be fun once she's done!

Well figured out what caused everything.... the 1.4" tappet snapped.... hit my crank then put a hole in my block.

Here's the cause.... Clearances weren't checked correctly... Every piston has 5-15 Thousandths indentations. Also here's a picture of the nice hole....

Who designed that bumper?

And sorry about your bad luck! I've never seen a tappet snap at the bottom like that. What do the valves and pushrods look like?

Valves were bent... Intakes were the only ones that hit... Everything else is fine. Besides I need a new cam. Mercenary Offroad is building the bumper for me.
