Hello Mr. Mortensen...I actually found this site after liknking from HybridZ. I know Pete Paraska and used to talk to him on the phone often until I changed jobs from the hot rod shop to the boat shop. I've taken DavyZ for a ride in my 468ci alum. headed 67 Malibu convertible andI took Leonard (Fairlady327?) to his first circle track race several years back. I joined HybridZ again after about a 3-4 year lay-off and now my V8Z project is going to be pushed towards the front of my to-do list. I am not allowed to post on that site for some reason, it tells me I don't have permission and it could be for several reasons... I have no idea...I shot an e-mail to DavyZ and he couldn't help me... I will mess with it again soon, I really want to say Hi to everyone again and tell them I have missed the lively discussions and icredible tech knowledge found on that site. This site seems really cool too!

Wanted to introduce mysel a the "NFG". I've had my 1972 240 for over 8 years now. Bought it for $800 and it barely moved. I have replaced the engine (once), the trans(4X) the diff (2X) and all the suspension bushings, Illumina's, springs, bars,ets... cross drilled rotors, metal pads, Centerforce II clutch. I got my user name from a 6.125" rod 327 I was toying with. I have a 6 speed (almost in my hands!!) and a set of ported corvette L98 heads to go on a factory steel crank 355 ci small block chevy. Hopefully by the end of summer I will have the engine together and be ready for the winter to install the engine/trans combo. Car sits @ 2140lbs. with gas and oil, etc... Hopefully with 6 point cage, engine.trans, alum. radiator, ets... it will hover around 2400lbs. and 425 Hp/430 ft.lbs!! I am looking forward to hanging out on the site...Jason:stupid:

Welcome! I am new also. I have posted on HybridZ about 4 years ago and my user name is the same as on there. I needed to get back on the Z train again! Looking forward to your input...
