    cj-5 tank

    My "fuel cell" , actaully a cj-5 plastic tank . This pick shows how it will line up with existing down tube
  2. I never did find one so I made that one. Just takes 2 -90 degree bends and 4 -45 degree bends and a welder , oh ,and a lot of patience. I thought about using a 2.25" crossover but decided to build my own. At 90$ for a dynoflow , i about bought half of my whole system for that. besides, you are limited to working around their dimensional specs for incorporating into a Z chassis. i did find someone that did make a 2" Xover the other day when i picked up my glasspacks and i can find it somewhere if you like?
  3. So I guess i am still wondering where the best place to weld in my bung for someone to use a wide band set-up to help me tune my car. It will be easy while I am building the exhaust right now and I want to put it in the most convient place.
  4. Check out my post in the exhaust section. Where do you think would be the best place for the bungs on my set-up? I'm not clear on how they hook up there equipment to the sensor.
  5. i thought it needed to be as close to the header as possible?
  6. Pete, I have never done any dyno time but I was thinking if I had bungs welded in my duals then I could have someone else install their wide band to help me tune my N/A 2.4? Is that what they would do if I had my engine dyno tuned? I could get the precision tune without all the cost of the equipment. Or does the shop expect you to have a sensor installed and they hook their equipment to it?
  7. I am running 2" only for my p-30.
  8. My version of twice pipes finally starting be be a reality. Some of the most challenging but fun fabricating I've done. I wish I was initially brave enough to do this in SS but wasn't sure how it would turn out. Can't wait to hear it!!!!!!

  13. i think they are going the wrong way since the last gen. Of course i am partial to my ugly BAJA TURBO. It's one of those cars that's so ugly it's cute. My daughter calls it the fish car??????
  14. I am putting together a twice pipe/dual exhaust system for my p30. My questions relate to hanging my system. How much or should I worry about clearance needed for engine torque movement? I am worried about the pipes coming in contact with anything due to the small amount the engine will move on its mounts. Specifically I am looking at my trans crossmember right now thinking I put the pipe to close. I guess I would like to know how much clearance i should allow anywhere i hang the pipes to assure i don't get any pipes rattling against something. I would like to mount my dual pipes tightly against the rear diff crossmember where the pipe cutouts are but not sure how or how close i should get? I guess if i went fairly solid against the crossmember i would have to put in a flex pipe?

  19. so have you rolled your fenders , and if not, would it help to clear the 245's?. I would think stock spring perch would be getting close too with 245's. Did you think you would get slammed with all these ????????
  20. Sparky, that's why I asked about the clearance, especially on the rear. The rotas will even have less since i believe the 16" is -4 offset. Those tires fill the wheel well so good I'm thinking ZG flares wouldn't look out of place with that tire wheel combo. (without cutting the fender). I wonder if you could sqeeze a 245 on the rear??? Car looks fantastic
  21. more pics please, can't get enough. I wonder if you could measure clearance on the struts too??.
