    PLX is now our nextdoor neighbor.

    Re: PLX is now our nextdoor neighbor. The one thing that they stopped making and maybe you can ask about is the convertor from their wideband to the autometer air fuel ratio guage. It was like $40 and was that one thing that I said I would get later. Too bad they stopped making it. Maybe you...

    New T-Shirt for Broke Truck Owners, etc. *update 2/29*

    When you drive to a fellow SYTYer's house to ask where that pesky wire or vacuum line goes... (me last night!!) Or when you know the location of every syty in a 20 mile radius and only two actually run... You chase after any SYTY you see just to say I have one of those in my garage... And my...

    Hey you really gave me shit about having crap on the floor of the Sy when you first met me... And even took a picture of it.... WTF!!! At least I took home a trophy on my first night out at the track with sy 1084 and a 13.9 timeslip on a completely stock truck with over 100K even after 6...

    Another Ty Wrecked. 5K in damage :(

    Either a bigtime wrencher or a bigtime wrecker to tow us all around!!!! I bought the typhoon since I knew that the Syclone was going to be a much bigger build and I was close to 6 months out. I only got to enjoy it for 250 miles so I am really missing out on those boost launches... Aaron

    Another Ty Wrecked. 5K in damage :(

    As for hijacking the the thread it seems to be what the MHST crew does the best. :D You can come over and bolt that hood on my Ty... just for testing how good it fits of course... :drinking: At least that way I could have a picture of my Ty looking good even though it is stuck in my...

    Another Ty Wrecked. 5K in damage :(

    I should have the Ty done first. I just need to get the rotating assy balanced this week and then I will be reassembling the engine and then reinstalling sometime in the next two weeks. Then there will be another white grey on the road in Denver. The Sy will be later this spring but it is...

    Another Ty Wrecked. 5K in damage :(

    Speaking of buying a sy... I really wish I could have bought that 92 sy that sold today :cry: I have a third engine block that would be ready to drop in after a few weeks. I guess I will just have to save my tax refund and watch for another turbo box. Maybe even a buick :P Wait what the...

    From Bad to Worse

    I know exaclty how you feel... I picked up a Typhoon in Texas that had a $5000 dollar rebuilt engine from Conley performance with only 1500 miles on the rebuild. And a warranty on his workmanship... When I test drove it it ran great so I bought it. 250 miles later a rocker arm stud broke...

    Looking for Pic of motor/turbo - outside truck

    If you want you can come out to my house and see what a garage looks like with both a sy and ty engineless. That would be a more realistic t-shirt for our trucks.... :roll: I do have my original block with the big holes in the block and oil pan still assembled. It has the entire stock...

    hey myclone, did you use nylock nuts on the rockers?

    Be sure to check every nut on what Conley Performace does.... I picked up a Typhoon that had 5k worth of engine work done on it. After a rocker arm stud broke (looks like it was over-torqued according to a few shops I took it to) and it killed the engine; not one the six bolts holding the...

    Valve Covers

    send your oil off for analysis. Mine came back with a higher than normal amount of lead concentration before my motor broke the number three rod. I think they sell the Titan Checkup Engine Analysis kit at autozone. It might be worth a try... I should have listened to them... Aaron

    need a good size syclone logo

    OK... So I am stupid and know nothing about the .png format. How do I shrink it and get rid of the Typhoon. I tried to use Microsoft photo editor to resize and convert it to JPG or BMP so I can use it as wallpaper but each time I try it starts to overlap.... WTF should I use?

    need a good size syclone logo

    I think a lot of us would like a screensaver like that one. I would like one resided to use as a background for a PC with 640x480 resolution and one for 1024x768. Is there any chance that someone has a screen saver that moves around as well. How about one of our trucks moving around the...

    Bad lifter or a woodpecker? UPDATED

    I agree that it is very hard to determine what is going on over the net but my engine sounded something like that before I lost the bottom of a rod. A strange ticking sound. I made it 5 miles before it broke and spilled all of the oil out of the hole left in the oil pan. I would take a...

    Any good jbwelders out here?

    I guess the stock long block couldn't handle the big turbo. Maybe a word of warning...NO 60 series on stock blocks with 100,000 miles... :o I think it lasted about 500 miles before the big breakup!!! I did manage a few 12 sec runs on datamaster before she gave up... Actually a lot of things...
