Mine did the same thing a few years backs. Check to see you don't have a blown gasket where the "Y" pipe bolts right before the O2 sensor. You also might want to fix the hole in the floor board if you have one. When mine went (gasket), it was blowning hot exhaust through the top right at the floor board and since I had a hole in the floor board it was blowing right at the material under the carpet. Also if it's the gasket replace it with two gaskets (double them up) to help resolve the problem from happening again.

Thorley headers, with duel Dynomax 6" muffs that dump right before the rear tires, 2.25" from the headers back. Here is a clip of what they sound like....

I've done this job twice already once on my 87 and once on my wifes 91, and will be doing it very soon on my 89. Not to hard of a job, just real fun getting the old ones out. That link that Cuong posted will help you, I did mine the same way. Also, only pull, repair, and replace one link at a time since the axle may move a little when you remove them, makes it a little easy to get the links lined back in. Oh, and I've used AC's bushings both times, only because I can't find them any cheaper around here. And defenitely go with poly.

Thanks, I had one on the "real" 87, so when she past on to the junkyard in the sky, and I got the new one, my two girls wanted to know where the face went, so on went another. Only differance is the teeth.

Try it now...

Had a lead foot when I was younger, a very BIG one. One of the reasons I like wheeling is it keeps me off the streets, the pathy is just not up to running with the little cars with lights on top.

Sorry, the 50's are too big to fit, I really wanted the Hushpower II's but way too much dough. So I went with Dynomax 6" round for the room we have. They were about 60 bucks each, I'm also running Thorly headers and about 3' to the mufflers with 2.25" pipe then dump right before the rear tires. Enjoy!!!

Incase anyone is interested........ http://www.twistedaxles.com/Adventure.asp The wife and I will be there with both our pathys. It's a great time.

Thanks but no.... I have enough of my own.

Thank you everyone who replied and for your opinion, but I found my answer, which is .006", again thank you for your help.

I'm not trying to be rude but, I didn't ask if I should or shouldn't do it, and I didn't say that I was or wasn't doing it. I asked how far you could deck the heads before it was too much because of the close tolerance. Thanks

Anybody?

This? http://www.purenissan.com/

Anyone happen to know for sure how far you can deck (shave, plain, etc.) your heads before it's toooooo much?

185,000 before it needed to be changed, would have lasted longer but I used the pathy to pull 1500' of wire an road the clutch to do it, other wise I'm sure it would have lasted longer.

Bought two yesterday for the liftgate at Advance auto for 26.46 each, Brand name "strong arm" P/N is 4758

I understood that, kinda cool how the mind works....

But, most pathys come stock with 31's........... so that means you MUST run BIGGER.......

Another thing to check is ohm's between the ECU and the injectors, if you don't have Zero ohm's then you have a break in the wire or resistence which would through it into safe mode and not let you go above 3 grand. Hope this helps also, it was another problem I had before when I had changed my plugs and had moved some wires around.

Mine is "Artemis" - meaning is goddess of the hunt. Thumper thought of it since the pathy likes to hunt down paths.

This is Thumper, not me..... so here she goes.... How to lose an erection in 10 days!!!

LOL....thats toooooo funny Dan......, I like #4 the best.

Under the hood on my 87 it's 12 deg. BTDC (Before Top Dead Center)

I was gonna take a pic of it but I didn't, sorry. But I rented it at Parts America for 32 and change and its called a pilot bushing puller. Had to return it to get the exhaust piece from the "Y" to the cat. Boy let me tell ya, thats what her truck needed was a stick. Kinda glad the auto tranny went. Wifes alot happier since I was in there we put in new torsions and headers

I just got my wife's tranny back in about 30 min ago. To remove and put back in I used a ratchet wrench on hers since I have allot of room with 3" BL, on the donor truck I used a socket and long extensions from the front of the engine to remove.
