Wow, that leather for the helmet idea is great! we always just used welding nomex welding 'hats' but i like your approach, i may have to do that! i did buy an extra pack of tips forgot to say that, thanks!

Well, after using my friends millermatic 175 all the time, I felt it was my turn to buy one. So I ordered my brand new millermatic 180 from Indiana Oxygen Co. it should be here this week! first project will be this http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=126732 Im so excited i had to share it, the wife didnt share my enthusiasm for some reason. Anyway, I ordered an auto tinting helmet with it and some gloves as well as misc brushes and wire pliers. anything else you guys would suggest?

I love the whine, I had timing gears on my old C10 and it sounded amazing.

This is going to be a higher compression (11.5+:1). I've been toying with this idea for a while now since we have such a good supply of it up here, and its cheap, right now its 2.59 a gallon at the station down the road. You guys ever have sales or anything? Seems to be my luck as soon as I order something it goes on sale.

thats exactly what i was looking for... im going to try it i think. i live in milwaukee and my town has 2 stations with e85 within a 6 square mile radius. the part you are talking about not being anodized is where the injector seats right? i have access to anodizing services that may be able to take care of this. i have the megasquirt and a fuel cell for alcohol to use. i have everything i need except your ITBs.

damn i jealous, we dont have anything up here... do you have the part number?

ok, im a little late, however. how do you think these would go with e85? im buiding my f54 block with flat top pistons, e31 head, and a 1mm head gasket.

where did you get the nismo domed pistons? im pretty much at the same point you are so ill be waiting to see what their answer is. thanks!

Braap, that was a l28e or l28et? that sounds like what i want!

sounds good to me... now, to find some 280 pistons.

so i played with that... so if i run a f54 block with an e88 head and flat top pistons with 1mm metal gasket id be at 10:1 which is what i want. or is my method all sorts of f'd?

yeah, i had posted there and asked for quotes. price seems reasonable enough and he seems legit. however cant really drop that much money without shopping around a little bit.

where is everyone getting their sr swaps? a friend is looking to buy a complete swap set-up, but there is no where local (we are in Milwaukee, WI). Can anyone recommend a place that ships motors? He just wants an s13 redtop (its going in his hardbody truck). thanks guys

yes, final pics, please!

actually, ill be fine with the 2" ordering the plans now i guess!

hm... i may have to get those plans then, the only problem is i need up to 2.5 inches. I have access to the dies ill need.

okay, while looking at your design, how limited is the length of tubing you can bend? i have some issues in my design for making long bends (such as the halo bar and the main hoop).

thats where i got mine, just didnt see any pneudraulic ones. ill check their site now. thanks!

i have a bender like that, but i had to use a handpowered hydraulic ram, where do you find a pneudraulic ram like the ones pictured?

i had status seats (not in my z) and loved them. they are very wide on the wings though, i kind of doubt they would fit in an s30

Alright, I've been doing lots and lots of reading on this site, and some others trying to figure out which cam would work best for me. This will be for my l28et with a p90a (converted to solid lifter) track car. I do mostly road racing (Road America twice a year, but mostly shorter tracks and occasional auto-x). I have a little larger turbo than i need (plan on getting a better sized for my needs within the next month or so. I would like to see around 350-400 hp. I have seen it said that the stock cam is good to these numbers, however I am curious if there is a better choice for my set up. Thanks for any help guys. I am truly lost here. Adam

nevermind, im am idiot

I searched, but couldnt find any. got any pictures of the completed car?

yeah, its not super new. check out the new eclipse jet, its all friction welded
