1-3-2-4 Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 I assume no washers go behind the oil gallery plugs so I sealed them up I don't remember taking any off of them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-3-2-4 Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 So it's almost time to see we're I stand with the heads... I'm not sure if they can be saved or what. This is the passenger side Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnWR Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Those should be saveable, My heads looked worse and my machine shop was able to polish everything out without an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StkmltS Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 After you get the motor back in the brakes will probably just emit a high-pitched tone for the first few miles to confirm that you are, in fact, moving. It's a nice feature if you ask me. My DiySB rebuild Got Misfires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1-3-2-4 Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Moving under my own power is going to be the biggest gift of the day. This week I'm going to drop the heads off so they can get checked out. I think the heads on the motor will be around 230ish? I checked on my scale as of now it's at 105 lbs.

1-3-2-4 Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 In a holding pattern right now still gotta take the heads to be cleaned and whatever done for the cam caps then the fun comes with doing the clutch. Going to try and get the heads up to the shop this Friday. I may have some questions a little later on.. just because I want to make sure I have all the screws and bolts for the top and front of the engine.. the rear is pretty much sealed up and just awaiting the flywheel. btw I was looking at replacing the metal turbo oil hardline for the one I think it was IAG was selling with the breaded one for like $80 something.. I think the OEM price for the metal one is like $40+.. I have mine here but I can't unscrew it from the connection without the whole line twisting and kinking up.

Max Capacity Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 FWIW, my wagon is still using the one that came on the car. If your careful that solid line has enough flex in it to bend it a small amount to get it on and off. Mine finally broke free once. Or buy some Aero-Kroil and let it soak over night. https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome-psyapi2&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8&q=aero%20kroil&oq=aero%20kroil&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.7061j0j8 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs.

1-3-2-4 Posted April 13, 2017 Author Share Posted April 13, 2017 I'll let you know.. Im pissed the transmission in the '08 Tribeca went out on my way to get lunch this is why I said I'd never get another automatic.. on my way to lunch.. at a stop sign to make a right and as soon as I press the throttle horrible sound and lost drive power.. I had limited reverse but that was about it.. soon that was gone. It's going to be a bitch to replace.. last transmission I did was on my '97 outback and the height I had to lift it to get the transmission to clear under the car was crazy high.. killed my mood since I was going to drop the heads off tomorrow to the shop..

How many miles on the '08 Tribeca? My '08 Tribeca's transmission has been making noises for a while, and I'm wondering how much longer I'm going to keep it. I got 110k on it.
