  1. are you in Las Vegas? Wait for it to cool down also, out elevation and temps suck donkey balls.
  2. There's a British show on Velocity called "Wheeler Dealers." They mainly fix up European vehicles for a small profit. It's definitely one of my favorite shows on there.
  3. They come out here to Vegas at SEMA time and do the optima street challenge at Spring Moutain Raceway. They show the cars off before the races and haven't seen a z car yet. There is this one blue 79 Trans am that I always drool over and talk to the owner every year at SEMA ahah. It looks like a blast to do though
  4. I wouldn't worry about the Trans too much. I know you have a tr6060, but it's basically the same thing as a t56. Quite a few people out here are putting down 650-700rwtq to a stock internal tranny and they're still holding up in a 3500lb car. Obviously they dont have the stock flywheel or clutch. May have missed it, but doesn't the tr6060 have oil cooling lines? What'd you do with those?

  6. I'm going turbo and will keep my AC! 115° is too hot not to have it here lol
  7. They're great, easy engines to work on. Always have been my favorite engine series
  8. I want a manual, but am too cheap to buy it ahah. I was hoping that somebody would've made a copy and released it on the internet, but haven't found it
  9. Haha I'm 99medbluebird that sends you pm's every once in a while. Cant wait to see yours fire up!
  10. Aren't you on ls1tech with the white z with the CCW's? Also what material of welding wire are you guys using to weld the cast steel onto mild steel?
  11. Do you have them in the up and forward position or down in forward?
  12. I plan on running flipped truck manifolds for the turbo. I've searched and haven't found much. I know some of you are running truck manifolds and some are running custom turbo manifolds or custom turbo headers. Is there any brand of turbo headers that can actually be bought? Most of the turbo headers I have found are usually for the fbodies. One of my truck manifolds are cracked, so I'm trying to look at my options for exhaust manifold/headers that would work in a front mount turbo LSx S30.
  13. Small little update, but I'm happy! I only had one broken exhaust manifold bolt stuck in the head. Since the temperature was down in the 80's today and since I was bored, I figured i would attempt to get it out. After some heat with a torch it came out! Hooray for no broken exhaust manifold bolts!
  14. It wouldn't matter because my engine came with just the front steam vent tube, which needs to be replaced
  15. Oil pan is just temporarily held on with two bolts. Also obtained an ls6 intake for $50!
  16. It seems pretty straight forward. I'm surprised somebody is converting to the 260/280z tail lights. It seems like people convert to 240z tail light for some reason
  17. It looks great! I'm thinking of using vht black wrinkle as a texture for my dash
  18. I've experienced this problem when doing a 5.3 swap into a Porsche. The computer had security programmed into it from the factory. Had to get it tuned out.
