    Finished replacing both Cyl heads

    Hey, they are Ferrari 575 Marabello mufflers,(EBAY $200 bucks) they have two outlets one is quiet and the other is real thunder. The thunder ones are controlled electrically, I just flip a switch on my shifter to turn them on or off. Besides my neighbors would gang up on me if I ran straight...

    Finished replacing both Cyl heads

    I didn't do the work all at the same time, and didn't have air tools in the garage I did the job. I would think 6 to 8 hours sounds right. Remember the first time is always longer than the second etc. There wasn't anything difficult, just a lot of little things had to be removed and installed...

    Finished replacing both Cyl heads

    Some time back I posted that my 02 Liberty had dropped a valve seat, well I finely got the time to repair it. I got 2 rebuilt heads, with valves, cam, rockers etc pre-installed via EBAY for $300 each, the gasket set cost $100 dollars. The job went smooth, the biggest things for me were...

    Cyl head removal Secret ?

    I am removing my passenger side head and have removed all the fasteners I can see but there must be something I'm missing, it moves around a bit however in the front intake side where the chain is it seems to be hanging up. I did remove the two fasteners inside the timing chain area but is there...

    3.7 engine / year to year

    I'm not taking your advise lightly and do have years of experience working on modern engines so please don't take me asking for more opinions and information as a insult.... I was told by an EBAY seller the intake manifolds and electrical systems were different. I have a computer...

    3.7 engine / year to year

    I have an 02 with a damaged engine. Most of the 02 engines (used) have high mileage, but I see lots of 04, 05 engines with low mileage but am told there are differences in the engines. What are they? Can I install an 04/05 in my 02 ?

    O2 Liberty Limited / engine issue

    I have a bit more to add, I removed the intake manifold and could see down the intake port. I saw a intake valve and a valve seat stuck together. I didn't see much of the piston at this point, so I can't determine if its damaged. Any one know what kind of compression/piston style...

    O2 Liberty Limited / engine issue

    I haven't done much more but have inspected the valve springs and they look fine on the effected cylinder. Theres no compression and the valve isn't stuck as it responds if I tap on the top. The rocker however will no longer stay locked in as the valve overall height is too low.. I did get some...

    O2 Liberty Limited / engine issue

    I did see that one if it were just a spring that would be great! Replacing those is quite fast compared to removing the heads etc.... :)How often do these engines drop valve seats??:rolleyes:

    O2 Liberty Limited / engine issue

    Hey, I did a search on this site and Google as well, didn't really come up with much. I did take the valve cover off and found the rocker have drooped out of place because the valve stem/spring Assembly didn't take up enough slack to hold it in place. The valve itself as a Assembly along...
