  1. grumpy, besides the cost, does it look like a solid design? What of torque and the almost-not-there runners?
  2. To my _very_ inexperienced eye, it looks like that manifold is designed for peak hp / high rpm, as the runners are very short . . . which limit the low end torque, right? http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tech/0703phr_four_barrel_inline_carb/photo_14.html http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tech/0703phr_four_barrel_inline_carb/photo_13.html Correction please? Am I looking at it correctly?
  3. How much flex is there left, even with the extra bracing you put in? I am able to make out the roll cage / bar, but not able figure anything else. Did you beef up the frame rails? What sort of bracing under the cockpit?
  4. http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tech/0703phr_four_barrel_inline_carb/photo_17.html "Here's the small-block Bad Man as seen from the passenger side. By now, you're wondering how much it's going to cost. Look for a street price of around $1,795 (bare- cast appearance) for the small-block unit, which includes the inline four-barrel Bad Man and the Aero-ram manifold seen here. That's a lot of dough, but not when compared to the cost of converting to electronic fuel injection. Compared to EFI, the Bad man avoids the hassle of laptop tuning, wiring, and fuel system conversion, while offering equal (or better) drivability and power."
  5. Very impressive!! Any issues running without timing belt covers? I'd hate to get some debris in there . . .
  6. So if you were aiming for such high hp, why did you go with the SR over the VG30DETT?
  7. "The auction includes a harness that has been cut, i'm not sure whether it is usable or not. It appears that one of the four or five plugs that go into the computer was cut off, it may or may not be usable i'm not real sure. There is NO COMPUTER, however these are easily found on ebay as well." Hmm. Try getting spares too
  8. i use mininova for must of my torrent needs nice to be able to get shows from the UK and elsewhere
  9. 1 fast Z, what sort of increases have you gotten with sheet metal intakes? Never seen any data on them vs stock.
  10. Looks like he wasn't going for a plush interior He put in a RB25DET but really didn't do much to the brakes, kinda odd. Maybe he's a 1/4'er.
  11. Any bench flow testing or any other numbers? From the pictures it appears that the injectors have a very low angle to the air flow in the runners, and from what I've read that is good [ iirc ]. Looks good!!
  12. They have a RB25DET for $900, sans transmission. Or you can get the RB25DET + 5 spd transmission for $2100! I've never seen a RB25DET for such a low price, and it sounds like they are reputable!
  13. How much less effective is a radiator with such a large intercooler in front of it? Looks great and uses the space well, but I'd hate to be stuck in traffic on a hot day . . .
  14. Redding! I live up in Shingletown. You ever drive on the street? Sounds like a pretty track-built car, very fast though
  15. Don't mean to thread jack, but are LSXs going for that much??
  16. What is your rear diff ratio / model? Very good mileage!!!
  17. Ya, that Supra seemed to get a jump on the GT. Looking at the dyno graphs, the curvers are very steep.
  18. You serious???? I live at ~3500 ft!!! Maybe there is an upside to living on the side of a mountain range!!
  19. A very good friend of my families was a polio victim back in the '50s [i think that is the right decade], and talked of the March of Dimes helping him out alot. He's a contractor now, big burly guy, minus several muscles. Great foundation! Donate what you can !
  20. Wonder what it has! Looks like it is in eastern europe, can't imagine they have alot of performance engines surplus there.
  21. Wow, wonder how much horsepower that saps. Gains alot of rice points though
  22. Depending on the OP's 300ZX year, a LT1 could be smog legal in CA. . . just have to do the swap right. Unless he can register in a non-smog county . . .
  23. So the Muncie's are very tough? How much can they take in a muscle car?
