H.O Manifold & TB Guides

[siether]

I'm gonna pickup a HO manifold, TB and intake cam from a local junkyard off of a 95 Sunfire GT. They're gonna give it all to me for $150 if I pull if off my self or $200 if they do it. I guess my question is I need some good links on what to do to get the manifold and TB to fit onto the 2.4. Guides with diagrams or pictures would be great. I'm not really mechanically inclined, it would help with explaining it to local shops to show them what is required. I've found some guides but no pics on how to do it. Oldsman if you have some info that would be great, or anyone else who has the hybrid setup. :)

[Oldsman]

there is 2 guides made up. there are links on here. do a search and should be able to find them. if not goto quad4forums and get the info.

if i can find it i'll post it for ya.

Try to find the exhaust cam from a 90-94 LO engine to make a set of not so "secret" cams. The NY Jbodies site in the link has all that info on the secret cams also.

Thanks for the links, I'm gonna look for the exaust cam in the next couple days. I'm gonna take some pics of the intake on the sunfire and post them cuz it looks like it was sitting out in the rain for awhile. Just to get some opinions if it looks worth taking off, or to look for something better. BTW what is the most common car to find the exaust cam from?

[battistoni21]

the pontiac grand ams.... i believe either 94s or 95s??????

someone correct me if im wrong.....

[Oldsman]

the exhuast is easy to find. it's the intake that is hard being it is only a 95 cam

90-94

the intake is a pain to find....just keep checkin on quad4forums...thats where i got mine, and now that i kinda got my other problems resolved, i couldnt be happier with the cam

[siether]

The intake cam is included with the manifold and TB i'm getting becuase they're just going to give me the whole cylinder head and i'll have to get the cam out myself. I guess it'll be a learning experience for me. :)

what are you doing with the head? is it an 086 head?

if your not going to use it i could use another

[siether]

How would I know if it's an 086 head. Do these heads fit the 2.4 or you need it for something else, just asking.

[Oldsman]

it's the casting # on the head. which is located on the side the timing chain cover is. between the 2 bolt holes.

they will fit on a 2.4 with some modifications. but compression goes WAY up.

[ptrudel]

what kind of modifications, and i'm assuming you gotta run 94+ octane fuel with that too right?

[Oldsman]

higher. being you will be running 11.4:1 compression.

[ptrudel]

haha holy crap...so what octane fuel are you using then?
