Finally Heads are Done - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Its been forever but my heads finally came back from the full 36MM treatment. Cant wait to see what she will throw down with the 380 bottom end and Petes intake cams

No the secondaries are never going back in. (The cause of my engine failure)

It depends if it good I will leave it or Corey's. Dom and I will work on it to get it real close first. GC

Sweet GC - nice job!

Daryll, that looks GREAT! I'm jealous!

Yep that is the dreaded rattle alright - just a soon as you let off the clutch it starts.

No doubt you have to just put a deaf ear to it all and just accept that it is what it is.

Now I see some of you have made it much better with the tune-new injectors and different tranny oil.

So I guess that you can make it better with a bit o work and fluid choice. This is good indeed.

How about a vid with good sound from one of you who have achieved this goal so we can have a listen to your tamed rattle beast.

I'll bet you look just like that!

Way to be Daryll! Use her in good health!

I had the rattle on my 89 with the Fidanza flywheel and even being a blck tag it did not sound as loud as Polo-1's video. The rattle on my 89 was more subtle then that

This is a vid of my ZR idling after ported heads and Pete intake cams installed. Near end of vid I place the camera on the plenum to illustrate vibration at idle.
I did quite a bit of additional tuning after this which is now incorporated in the tune I sent to GC. We'll see how it works. BTW, idle here is at 750-825rpm.

I should say that's a 402 with SCG stage 2 intakes and 1 exhuast cams. With a little cam the motor start to make the tranny rattle...
