Cheers, yeah look it doesn't usually happen but is probably common sense to locktite bolts that have a change to go down there, but seemed very far fetched and unlikely 😅 Next motor will be bigger and better and all documented on here.

@@CHR0M3x I recently had to take my top manifold off, noticed a bit of locktite on the threads, so I’ll make sure the threads are cleaned and it’s re applied when bolting it back on. I’m a bit nervous about getting the top spacer now after seeing that happen mate haha. Can’t wait to see the next video 👌🏽

@@Billi-JaiKnight You should be fine as long as they are locktite etc lol, but yeah just keep in mind those spacers is what allowed the room for it to happen, without them it would of just likely stayed in the hole.

Sup, only cams and haltech for 250 at the wheel? Looking to get an ecotec skid car and im wondering what i can do for more power keeping it na for more reliability
@CHR0M3x6 ай бұрын
Definitely not only a cam and haltech haha and the haltech has nothing to do with the power, went 260 Rwhp on a dyno on factory tuned ecu, if you go slapping this cam and nothing else on an eco I doubt you'd get close to these numbers. Had valve job, machined heads and manifold heaps of compression, e85 etc etc, there's a list in the haltech build video.

Depending on what your setup is it might be fine haha, there's a few scenarios working together to undo mine, no balance shaft, more rpm then usual, sustained rpm, spacers etc haha all played a part.
