THE HELL's That Sound??
 
Hey Guys

I went to get my Dell40's today man are they nice..
But it the tuning session we ran into a few problems..
1) The manifold wont seem to seal
2) when the motor was running it just started knocking back.. like shut that thing off bad..
I looked under the car all was well
it was a steddy knock that sounds very matalic..
The first thing that we will check tomorrow it the valves,then the heads..
Any idea's..
I dont think its a bolt or washer that fell in cuz all parts were acounted for when removed..
Peace Troy

what i did to make my manifolds seal was to file the bottoms of the manifold.
I chucked the manifold into my bench vise and proceeded with a long flat file until I had covered the entire sealing surface of the manifold. this cured my intake leak problems.

Remember: dont file too long in one place, and try to file on one axis (if that makes sense).
