Jonpro03 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 [video=youtube;ZCnYiJBN6k0] I just bought this car and I know nothing about 90*s Help me out here Quote
Night Fury Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 Either supercharger coupler or spun bearing! Lol! Hope for the first one! But don't take my word for it I'm not 100% sure Quote
xtremerevolution Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 Take the supercharger belt off and try again. If the noise goes away, its the supercharger. If it doesn't, you're screwed. Quote
Addicted to eaton Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 I put my life on this, Its not the supercharger you spun a bearing. And Or threw a rod. Ask me how i know! its only my 2nd one! Quote

White93z34 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 take the SC belt off and try again. but that sounds like a lower end has totally left the building. Quote
Euro Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 Yeah I haven't heard a supercharger coupler sound that bad...sounds like it's teh motor How'd you get this car? Quote
GP1138 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Posted May 23, 2010 Bearing fail. Sounds just like my Cutlass: [video=youtube;f23NyYTFKVI] Quote

93cutty Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 Yeah sorry buddy but thats exactly what my blazer sounded like before she self destructed. Quote
Jonpro03 Posted May 24, 2010 Author Report Posted May 24, 2010 Yeah I haven't heard a supercharger coupler sound that bad...sounds like it's teh motor How'd you get this car? Bought it. can I use a na 3800 bottom end? Quote
Addicted to eaton Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 And it will be faster with a 3800 Bottom end. Make sure to get some mods if your going to run stock pulley on a N/A bottom end Quote
Addicted to eaton Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 Dp, u-bend delete, 104 plugs, CAI, Ported front and rear mani, colder t-stat. and a tune. Then you Might be safe with the stock 3.8 Quote
terryk2003 Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 Like what? IIRC, you're gonna want at least the mods that you need for a 3.4 pully'd car with a stock lower compression bottom end... Mods like Cold air intake, u-bend delete, colder plugs, 160 or 180 stat, and a good tune. Quote
digitaloutsider Posted May 24, 2010 Report Posted May 24, 2010 Ported stock shit is a waste of time. Do the t-stat, u-bend delete and intake first and get a tune as soon as you can. At the least, scan for KR as soon as you put it together. Quote

At the least, scan for KR as soon as you put it together. God I would love to put you in the passenger seat of the Regal to prove you wrong. I picked up a LOT of power by porting the heads. Quote

Addicted to eaton Posted May 25, 2010 Report Posted May 25, 2010 yeah i did mean manifolds. I was just trying to reduce KR on the cheap. Quote
Jonpro03 Posted May 25, 2010 Author Report Posted May 25, 2010 Im frustrated tonight because I was hoping I could just drop the oil pan with the engine in the car, but it doesn't look like thats going to happen. Quote
White93z34 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Posted May 25, 2010 good luck with that one without dropping the subframe. However from the sounds of it.... I would not even bother trying to replace bearings. that lower end sounds hammered. Quote
