hey, new guy here. purchased a 98 gtp recently non running. was supposed to be a good car, but its turning to be a fixer. was told it needed a fuel pump, and thats it. well i determined it did need a fuel pump, so i slapped a walbro i had in it. now it pumped. all over my garage. PO cut all 3 lines at the tank. next problem. it misfires real bad. took it to work and connected my tech2. #3 was a hard misfire. checked plug. pure clean unburnt oil. compression was zero.
was told this car ran great, and was fast. with a bunch of mods. only mods are a 3.4 pulley swap, intake, catback, and some sort of chip. where do they put the chips in these? seems i was lied to. lol. well i traded it for a pickup i bought for 200 bux and did some work to. so i still believe i got a good deal.
not sure until i tear it down weather its a bad valve, or a hole in the piston.
so, im going to order all the parts, and a used head. and do it next weekend, and have a decent car. so, i need to know if the heads on a supercharged 3.8 are the same as the N/A 3.8 of the same gen? or would now be a good time to upgrade to like the gen 3 heads? is that even possible?
not to big on the specs of the parts on these cars. just know how to work on them and fix them.
