Just built an ls/vtec stock rods new bearings and stock crank ctr 11:1 comp pistons full built head all except for porting. Had a little problem with the piston hitting the spark plug so bad that the spark plug wouldn't fire. I need some help, any would be great.

if anyone knows where to find a 2000 si head, i would like to buy it, let me know.

wutever man its the kids 2 post. someone help him out. ctr piston are pretty domy did you mill the head? clay the motor see how much clearance u have. maybe a thicker head gasket or get rid of the pistons in there for something else or if the head has been milled by a lot get a new head im not really sure just check the clearance.

 

"wutever" (somebody didn't do so well in 3rd grade spelling class)
whatever (would be how the big boys spell it)

No but seriously it only happend on the # one piston, and it has been running fine for about 5000 miles. And i did mill the head. Do you have any real help?

LOL

 

The same thing happened to my motor, and I ended up putting 1986 300Z Turbo spark plugs, from Autozone The part number isQ20PR-U11 3008. I hope this helps you out

 

your response is pretty cocky considering you have been making threads asking similiar questions all week long.....

 

serious. repeating info you hear is not the same as understanding it and putting it to use in the real world.

 

i don't know what your trying to do with that response but its not giving me any answers to my questions. Did you ever think that maybe i have been writing about similar things to get some usefull help out of somebody. let me know when you have any info

If this only happened on # 1 you may want to make sure you did not spin a rod bearing.

If one hitts they all should !

damn..

 

Thats what i was thinking but wouldn't you be able to hear it once you start the car up? I put a new spark plug in and started it up and it runs fine.

What setup are you runnin? i saw 11 something in an all motor street car you say?

 

i would try the spark plugs try some that don't stick out of the head soo much.

yeah you damn nubie

 

Give this guy a break. He needs help and we can help him. Dude, if you are only mashing 1 spark plug, I suspect you have other problems that you may wantto worry about more. It's not what you wantto hear but true. But, you could just try some plus that dont stick out into the combustion chamber so much, like the guy with the 300zx plugs said. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

 

The question is what spark plugs was he using.

I'd be careful, he may leave an arrogant comment towards you for trying to help him as well

 

Did you bend any valves?

DOGGED

 

did u over tightning ur spark plug??? u might have a lil piece of metal laying on top of the piston!!! just a guess.

i would re-gap the plug and start the motor to see whatsup

 

So what if he spelled it right ! he got it right in the main post ,, alot of people like to talk so much **** , just help the guy out.....

ps i have a few friends with ctr's in ls/vtec's and no problems , sounds like your head might be milled to much ....
