Where can I buy it
One small tip! I had three of the Hydraulic Engine Mounts fail after about 1 year each. It was the passenger upper one. Finally, I purchased a solid rubber mount from RockAuto. There is very slightly more vibration at idle only. As soon as rpm is raised, no vibration. Engine mount failures is now in the rear view mirror. Engine mount failures on these cars is common, switch to tge solid rubber! You can thank me later!😂😂😂
Even with the 1 inch lugs and studs purchased from Speedway Motors, my cavalier I built a few years ago and raced at Madison International Speedway on the Ring of Fire, with the stock steel wheels, the center of my RF blew out completely during a feature race. Bassett racing wheels are definitely better if the rules allow them. I also bought my cage kit from Lefthander chassis.
@Kartracer95 those Cavalier wheels are notorious for doing that. The 1 inch lugs also have the wrong taper for the stock GM wheels. So if you use those, it's almost 100% it's going to break them. Use stock lugs on stock wheels or run Bassetts with the proper tapered racing lugs. That's EXACTLY why that 1 inch lug nut rule is STUPID and wrong.
So the cam lock up tool ensures the cams are properly oriented to the top dead center position of the piston without worry of being 180 degrees out???
@roytwo correct because the slots are offset so the tool can only go in the cam in one orientation.
My focus went 201,000k miles before I replaced the timing belt 😅😊😅
You guys still racing
@justinbradbury3633 more so drifting at the moment. But race from time to time.
I wonder if this kind of car can compete a little in different kinds of motorsport branches, not the professional kinds, mind you, but rather the grassroots and such.
@@oscarljungberg8821 probably wouldn't pass tech in most racing series outside of circle track.
How many cars on track,and how big is this track? Awesome racing
@reddmann2216 anywhere from 60 to 120 cars. Most tracks are 1/4 mile. Some slightly bigger.
Thanks so much for posting this . Really great video. Way better than watching nascar.
We can work on ours up till it is time to race, but if we see the podium, we get re inspected
I found a kit with round tubing on the bottom and for the seat mount, so i was able to use that tubing to make my gace legal, and the dor bars were bent on bolth ends i paied about $400 .👍
That would not pass on our track now. I'm curious wair what was allowed to race at 🤣 great gar to start off with tho
I’m in 😈
I own this car and I love it. non-interference engine is a big deal :D
Where did u get for 130 shipped looking for it cNt find it cheaper then 168
This was a pre C-19 price. Inflation is a bitch!
Does the stroke #1 is on matter or can it be on any of the 4 strokes as long as the piston itself is at TDC? I've been looking into doing this and am not finding a definitive answer as to if it has to be TDC on the compression stroke or just at TDC.
Turn it to number 1 TDC before you remove it. If it's already out of time it shouldn't matter as long as all the timing tools line up. They will only line up with number 1 at tdc
@@thatracinglife Just so I understand it the piston just has to be at TDC on #1 it doesnt have to be on the compression stroke or the power stroke the piston being at TDC on #1 is all that matters right?
@kurtiscal3msetccdwell618 the cam timing is what will dictate valve timing. (Aka what stroke its on) cams spin at half crank speed. So you could technically only have the engine 180 off if you did it by the pistons. Don't worry about any of that though. Buy the timing tools, as long as they are in and everything is lined up you'll be good. When you remove the tools, spin the engine over a couple times by hand and line up the tools one more time to verify it's all good and you're golden!
Where are you guys located at
Thats crazy, i have the same thing going on with my black 1994 Ford Escort LX Coupe, which is like this one, but about 10 years older. My mechanic thought the motor was blown, but to his surprise, the timing belt was shredded, so he bought a new timing belt for me to install on it, because he is done with fords lol
rockauto vs OEM/?? most parts are about the same price??

A little ingenuity and you could do this for a fraction of the cost that I'm sure this thing went for. Make it yourself and save big dollars.
Time or money, you can decide.
@@thatracinglife Time.
What steps did you take to do this? I just bout me an RSX and have no idea where to start
2 complete video series on the channel how to do it. Watch those!
you done making vids??
Probably not. Just busy with life. Saving money for the biggest project of my life. Lol
Is this a bomber class car ?
When you going to do this type of content again I miss it
Still feeling the damage to my neck from this one. Working and saving money for my new street car build. Have 2 new circle track cars on deck. We will be back eventually!
I’m behind a red Chevy van with your channel name on it, you drive like a blind person
These ztec motors are great motors great power and last a long time if you care for them very few problems
I'll give y'all a back yard mechanic trick you don't have to take any more off than the cam gear cover and the crank pulley and cover and loosen the tensioner all the way and just feed the belt down the tensioner side then turn the side of the belt that is toward the front of the car side ways and work it between the divider and the block till it goes through and is in correct position against the front pulley . Then the rest is just making sure your timing is good
Damn, 4 years ago, and still not 10,000 subs!!! WTH? Come on people, sub!!!
You say DONT use the lower idler pulley. I ordered a belt kit that came with the extra pulley and because my 2002 Zetec did not have one I left it out. I later found out what they are for. My daughter was using my car and she had a ' jittery ' way of cranking an engine when starting. She was jittery with the key and sometimes she would get a false start causing it to try and rotate backwards a few turns. Normally it would maybe just blow off vacuum lines but one time it caused the cam belt to jump over THREE TEETH on the crankshaft. When I fixed it I then put that extra pully in place as it helps keep the belt from jumping over teeth in the event of it turning backward. I don't know what you did to bend valves trying to use one.
it was done to save money there is nothing wrong with the extra-pulley-design...
I think I know what happened that
May have caused broken bolt. When I got a kit with two idler pulleys the instructions said if you use the bottom idler to torque the top idler bolt a whole lot more. It's not a very large bolt so the extra torque would be way too much and stretch it. I put mine to the normal amount.
@@michaelszczys8316seems like it is supposed to be torqued a bit more. The torque specs I found are the following: Upper and lower idler pulley, old two-pulley-design: 38Nm/28 lb-ft. Upper idler pulley, new design without lower pulley: 23 Nm/15 lb-ft.
To bad you don’t do videos anymore

Even from 3 years ago a lot of your videos are really helping me get a gameplan and idea for what I'm in for as far as 4-cylinder stock car racing. Can't wait to get to building this summer for next years season. Looking at a 8th gen Civic coupe, really nice for dirt short track 4 cyl.
Killer car for sure!

Awesome 😎
Thank you. Got mine put back together. Is it normal to run rough for a minute and then smooth out? Test drove it and it runs smooth now but for the first crank, it didn't sound good.
Depending on what all you took apart, it could run a little rough at first. Glad its all good now though!
very nice i love the way the video isnt monotone or boring. i enjoyed this very much and will be considering your products!
Quick & simple! & only for a $1000 that’s amazing

How come they don't take off the cars that aren't running like the red car.
To make the track an obstacle course. I don't agree with it. But the payouts are nice. 🤷♂️
Never underestimate an overheating engine, couldnt you have changed to higher gear to keep the revs lower and also the engine temp?
I have done that before. In this instance I decided to push it for the win. If it were just a cooling system issue I would have made it. Turned out it was the oil clearances getting super tight in the head from someone else's "rebuild" that made the cam lock up and snap. No biggie, just swapped in a new engine and it was solid.
What car is this
