ANyone got a photo of the top end of a 3.9? Specifically the tops of the valves? Or a measurement from the top of the retainer to the tip of the valve.
Thanks.......:drool:
Has anyone here ever tried to install an aftermarket oil cooler in a D1?
While installing my cam a few weeks back, I couldn't help to notice how small the OE one was. Summit Racing has some nice ones available for a decent price. It shouldn't be too hard to match up some fittings or get the...
Got a problem here on a 99 RR. The A/C system is fully charged with no leaks (not overcharged either). It will blow nice and cold and then quit after a little bit. If you bring up the RPM's (floor it from 0-40) the cold air will start coming out again for a few miles and then quit again.
Any...
Ok, I finally broke down and installed a Crower #50229 camshaft, Summit 4130 Pushrods, new rocker arms and shafts, and lifters.
Facts to know:
1. Upon dissassembly, wires stayed attached to cap
2. Cap removed and set aside.
3. Cam and crank lined up to TDC, cam keyway at roughly 9 o-clock (if...
OK, I did this once before but forgot the specifics.
Just installed a cam and misc parts. Valve covers are still off and I just lined up the crank and cam to TDC.
I know where the notch is on the distributor and I know TDC is set on the cam and crank, but both valves on #1 are closed. Is...
I need to find and alternative to the OE pushrods. They should be a fairly common diameter and length.
Does anyone have one handy to measure the length and diameter?
I am close to Summit Racing and they have tons of options.
Thanks...........:applause:
Ok, I am pulling out the cam from the 3.9 this weekend and putting in a Crower and new lifters.
I have already done the new lifter thing a while back, so i am familiar with the removal of the top end. But, I have a few questions after that:
1. What is holding the cam into the motor on this...
Welp, don't you just hate it when this happens?
Went to change the oil the other day and Mobil ! now puts some foil type of seal across the top of their 5 qt jugs under the cap. I tore most of it off (the word "most" leading to the problem here). Well, guess what happened?
Yep, the little...
Ok, I have been battling the infamous tapping sound forever and about fed up.
No matter what I do, it is still there.

There are two nipples on the vac. advance (94 disco 3.9). Are they both the same, but in different positions? I have my vac. line very close to a belt and would like to use the other if they serve the same purpose.
I have been wating for years to ask a legitimate question about nipples.
94 Disco, basically a full re-build, just tested yesterday and was quite surprised on the results.
