Update
Today I did a little work on the talon. Basically just checking the basics. Plugs and wires where in good shape, no holes in the pistons
 It has compression, I didnt check it because they wanted $50 for a gauge and I didnt have that much. I did however get a caliper and was going to test cw but damn the car is to low so I need to jack it up to test that. The spark plugs smelled of gas. If I do end up having to pull it, is it easier to pull the motor and trans as a unit or seperatly?

Re: Update
Its easier as a whole. Just ask Talon69, he pulled it just the engine, realized what a bitch it was, then pulled the tranny, stuck it on the engine and then put it in the car.

Re: Update
Ok, Tomorrow I'm going to go out and check for cw, if by chance its not that(crosses fingers that it is for an easy diagnosis) then I guess I'll go get a compression tester and if its not that then I'm stumped. Because honsetly what else would cause stalling, no throttle responce, but perfect running in the high rpm ranges?

Oh boy alot easier to pull it all together!!! I pulled the engine by itself but it also took me 4 hours!!! no bullshit i had to do way to much shit. When i put the engine back in with tranny it only took me like 20 minutes to get it dropped and in place for the mounts

Re: Update
Its way easier to pull it separate. I can have the engine and tranny out in about an hr. Pull the tranny/t-case in less than 45mins and then just 1 motor mount and the engine is out. If you leave the tranny on the block, you still have to disconnect the t-case and axles which is easier to do when you pull the tranny. Then you dont have to worry about tilting the engine/tranny to get it out.

Re: Update
Ok, update time. End play is .020 so she walked. I'm going to go with the stage 2 stroker kit from SBR. I talked to Mark today and he said that kit will handle upwards of 900whp and its only $1499 so I'm pretty excited.

Re: Update
Sweet, not the crank walk but the decision to stroke. What are you going with 2.3?

Re: Update
Nice. Will you upgrade your turbo eventually? Your running small 16g right now right? Maybe by the time your ready for a turbo upgrade I will be out of debt and have some extra cash so you can sell me your s16g.
