yea, I agree but his is dying off after it warms up, its not supposed to do that!

Lol, sounds like a plan to me! I still have to get the motor in the car along with getting it running for the first time...

That's why I read hotrod magazine! Chocked full of good articles! Best damn magazine out there!

well I am a lil late but I jumped in on the band wagon, it was 14.99 and I also ordered the spring copy as well. $21, not bad...

fantastic job man! I just read over the entire thing, doin a bang up job. I am taking notes for sure!

so how did guitar wire help to reinforce the exhaust cutouts? what kind of media did you use to sand blast it?

when I first saw the door I was impressed but I just thought it flowed too quickly, then you primered it and it looked a lot better, but I agree with Careless, I think it would have been better if it were more gradual and the blending started further forward... either way, Kudos! Looking better than I could ever do!

wow guys, this has been pretty informative! what is OSPHO and musicwire?

hahaha, yet look at your sig! All that work for no roof? I agree, I think I would just widen the body panels

I was just thinking about this thread the other day too! Wondering if anyone got anything to work without any issues. Hows it holding up?

damn, yea I would say its a bad pump. Hate to say it tho. Just buy another from summit and then put the old one back in the box and ship it back. what brand is your afr? I have come to the realization that you can't trust anything that isn't innovate...

oh my gawd! Thats insane! I hate that color! What did you use to get rid of it??? What kind of stripping did you do? What did you use for the interior? Like over the rear strut towers, what is that? Is it carpetting? That hood is sick! What one is it?

you really have to be honest with yourself and accept the fact that its going to be way more than you originally thought. I just paid 750 for the trans and motor mounts, vital liquids, and the driveshaft. There is a hell of a lot more than that I have to get, including headers, radiator, and all the nickle and diming things. I say get the motor and trans, throw it on craigslist or ebay and make a profit! I paid $4000 for my LS1 and t56 setup with about the same mileage. Take that cash and put it into your L28et. A college budget isn't going to get this done anytime soon. I bought my z while in college about 6 years ago and I just started working on it last year. Tho I also promised myself to NOT cut any corners and do everything right! Let us know what you decide!

yea, I was leaning towards ceramic but I wanted to get something that wasn't going to stain. So I was thinking about getting just a pair of headers and having the Jet Hot coated later. Jet Hot coating can be had in a variety of colors and thought that the black would do nicely. http://www.jet-hot.com/colorchart.html So I was also wondering what color the ceramics were from JTR and if the JCI headers are comparable to the JTR ones.

ha! that looks pretty clean! Sweet! So, I take it that its a GM tank and is that a charcoal filter they are going into? Am I mistaken but is that a returned system? What is that from? thanks. Sorry for the "post jack" I haven't gotten my car together yet and have TONS of questions! thanks!

ummmm.... well, if it worked for a couple hours maybe its your alt that can't keep up. In those couple of hours it drained your battery more than your alt could keep up kinda thing. which could also be the reason why your voltage was so low in the first place...

lol, nice, agreed! Good kill, definitely!

I guess you could always do lexan for the windshield but would it pass inspection in your state? The windshield is a major support in cars. Definitely would need to support the body, I would say a roll cage would do the trick.

wow.... good luck with that! I see it as one of those projects that never gets done... Why not just make your own widebody for it?

So, I just ordered John's motor mounts and tranny mount, plus the driveshaft. I figured I would hold out on the headers cause I haven't figured out which one I wanted just yet. That's where you guys come in. Which headers did you go with? The Broken Kitty or JTR? Did you get the JTR ceramic coated? Is it worth it? What about getting it Jet Hot coated instead? Thanks I did a quick search and didn't find anything that I thought answered my question

so did anyone follow thru with this? How did it werk out?

I hear that! Tho my back yard is in some dire need of affection. Then there is the 1200 cooktop I just bought for my kitchen renovation. The waterpump in my girl's LD9 that I have to replace (its a total bitch of a job). Oh yea, not to forget the 350 I need to replace in my beast of a daily driver as well... On top of all that I still have yet to buy the mounts or the driveshaft for the conversion! BAH!

eh, could be worse!

800lbs??? How does that even make any sense to him?

hahahaha! I'm not a fan of the Z bumpers either, so thats pretty much my plan for them as well!
