  1. Interesting choice of forged pistons for a relatively modest build. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

  4. Are you machining the piston reliefs or do they come that way? Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  5. Longer factory stock rod ? Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  6. There's also I guy on hybridz that sells kits to modify the valve bodies for quicker shifts Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  7. Ask me which car I think looks better - Z for sure!! Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  8. I wanted a 4S pretty bad - bring on the snow Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  9. I was considering Jeffs path myself , and still might. But I decided to buy a new truck instead. My research shows the 996 to be a steal and parts like brakes aren't that bad. Mentalite- just have to be patient and be willing to ship a car. There are services to inspect a car for like 99$ . You can also reach our here to this knowledge base to maybe find you one or pay for someone's time to inspect for you. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  10. Glad to hear that Zkars - could you have just made an access panel there if needed and killed two birds? Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  11. It vents as it returns to the tank Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

  13. This is what I'm doing . Not sure how this would drop into a stock tank http://www.tanksinc.com/index.cfm/page/ptype=results/category_id=61/mode=cat/cat61.htm Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile
  14. I plan on running 2 3/8" lines to replace original. Zed is correct about the return line, it has to be bigger for sure. My tank scenario won't help you since I run a CJ 5 tank, but I am going to go with Tank Inc drop in Walbro. It's a neat package if you could make it work on a Z tank. Surge tank might be an option for you. Have a low pressure feeding it and a high pressure feeding OFF of it. Just have to figure where to put it. What injectors and intake are you using?

  15. Did you use your vent line for supply fuel?
  16. Charles , It's an over complicated dual 2" pipes with no less than 4 mufflers . Magna Flows - straight thru turbos at the rear. I have a set of ANSA tips to put on there but not sure I want to change anything now that I've heard it on this video. It's funny that as long as I have had this car this is the first time listening to my own car WOT from the outside! Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

  20. A little different L music - twin symphony style!!
  21. Enjoying this spectacular fall weather and an engine that is running really well. My Mikunis have been really good to me and parting will be really tough. It's really a cool feeling when you open the hood for someone and they say - DAM! The fall weather means one last jet change for me . Time to increase the mains a size . Might go back to the dyno ( a different one) for one last pull. Still don't buy the last results . Ready to move on to FI , but don't want to take my car down for a minute. I've been driving it to work( 50 miles) lately just to drive it. But I will never be able to move on unless I say good bye to these. Might need to take another video too. Wish I had the money to make them wall art, but rather share them with another Z . Hopefully see them on a car in a show someday with that funky airbox !!
  22. I swapped out my broke d*** t5 for a good used t5 . I can now shift 1st to 2nd like I meant it. Then I just drove around like a happy camper ! Engine is running so good right now and the Mikunis are asking for bigger jets- so I better get on it. :-0
  23. madkaw replied to oemz's topic in Help Me !!
    Chris is right- Kia Sportage door seals. i tried everything ( well almost) , for years on my car. Installed Kia seals and just couldn't believe it. I had read the posts and wish now that I had tried it earlier. They work that good
  24. 1.25mm compressed
  25. Thanks Leon, doing the data mining on this stuff I've also stumbled across some of Bryan Blakes posts . He squeaked out the .022 number , but reluctantly . It's not a number you want to get wrong putting these engines together and could lead to some crashing. A 1mm gasket is a special order in most cases and 1.25mm is about the norm. .017 sounds about right for STOCK piston height and so the shave got you just where you want with a .049 gasket.
