frank280zx Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Finally in and tying up about a million loose ends. Amazing how such a simple engine still keeps you tied up in million loose ends ha (fuel lines, wires etc )... Looks sharp !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gvincent Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Latest pic of the LT1, re-did the pulleys and used the power steering delete pulley and an AC delete mount with a smaller pulley, uses standard length belt now and no more shredding of belts! YEAH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamikaZeS30 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I'm not even done with my swap, yet and I'm jealous of some of y'alls' projects. :/ It never ends, does it? The Motor. The Car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOTHALOSISM Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Not in all the way (still need mounts made) but its just to see how everything will line up. It still needs to go back a few more inches for the final install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaZeS30 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Ignore the dirty carburetor, it's only there for mock-up. When it's finished it will have a dual-cone cold air intake, mounted through the rad support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamikaZeS30 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Bj: that looks sick. Is the oil cooler for the trans or the engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt1 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 John, I'm glad you're to the point you can make some noise. That's always a big milestone. Is that Coffey's master cylinder setup? jt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjhines Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 The oil cooler and oil thermostat are for the engine. The Master cylinder is from JC @ Beta Motorsports. It is a fabulous design that suffers from a few development flaws. I like the way it works with some "gunsmithing". I have driven it around the block. The 327 engine and X-pipe exhaust sounds GREAT@! It has open chambered mufflers that make it fairly quiet until you stomp on it. It has a cool "euro" tone. I swear I'll get some video posted this weekend. I still have to set up the suspension, double check clearances, adjust bump steer and make damn sure nothing binds. I may have to re-cut the fenders higher and re-install the ZG flares. It looks like 245/40/17 is the tire for now. Though these Rota 17x9.5s will accept much wider tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cable Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I have two pics, the first is my old S30 with a 454 Big Block Chevy shoehorned in the car (BBZ) and now sold to another Hybridz member. The second is my current S30 with a LSx 6.0 swap (LSZ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
