  1. Do a search in the drivetrain forum for T5...it's been discussed several bazillion times...no point rehashing it here.... Tim
  2. Now I FINALLY understand the whole big exhaust tip thing the ricer crowd is in to.....it's compensation for a small 'member'. Bwahaha
  3. For that whopping HP, you could use just about any tranny . 200 4R is a nice overdrive tranny that tend to be more available in the JYs as the 700R4s tend to snapped up....look at the buicks too. A google search will give you a list of vehicles to look for. Any driveshaft will do....either way you will have to have it cut and rebalanced by a driveline shop and a correct flange installed for whichever diff you have.... Tim
  4. bartenders and pharmacists! ha ha ha ROTFLMAO!!!! priceless
  5. What gets me is that he is SOOOO impressed with his 270HP IROC!! I fart more HP than that!! What a tool! And he has absolutely no clue on how radar actually functions! 1987 IROC...dude must be Italian
  6. What a Maroon!! http://www.housetepes.net/sounds/iroc.mp3
  7. There is a Hyundai model that I was eyeing a while back that looks very close to the swept shape of the Z bucket....
  8. Do you have any kind of isolator between the carby and intake?
  9. With gas prices about to hit $3 per gallon...I'll take good looks and pooped out performance!
  10. Maybe fuel boiling in the bowls? Try running with hood cracked open to vent the hot air....
  11. Since the leverage is the same either way...I can't see any problem.....
  12. Welcome! 1. Have you checked the distributor clearance to the intake....sometimes you need to put shim washers between the intake and distributor....take the cap off and check to see if you have some (just a little) up and down play on the rotor. 2. Get the #1 Cylinder to top dead center on compression (pull the #1 spark plug). Check to see if the rotor is pointing to the #1 plug wire. Double check the firing order on the rest of the wires. 3. Make sure that the mark on the crank pulley (damper) is pointing to zero on the timing marker. 4. MAke sure that the fuel system is working correctly and is not over fueling. 5. Put the spark plug on the plug wire and rest it on the engine (so it's earthed), put the dizzy cap back on (after confirming that the rotor is pointing to #1 lead), and turn on the ignition (not start). Turn the dizzy back and forward, watching for spark at the plug. When it sparks, your timing is at zero degrees. Put the plug back into the head and start the engine. Check with timing light, it should show zero degrees timing. Make sure the vacuum advance is disconnected and the connection at the manifold plugged. Set initial timing at 10 degrees and see how that works. Tim
  13. Thanks Mike... I've heard some unflattering comments on the front end products from Fatmans....many of the rodders are saying that his geometry and quality of fit and finish is inferior.....more interested in the bottom line than providing an outstanding product... Tim

  15. Ha ha ha ... The one that provides the most 'vacuum'!!

  18. The spacers should be between the Block and Setback plates. Double check your setback plates to make sure. I took this picture with the setback plates on the wrong sides....
  19. I have resorted to putting 89 in the Z28 and just letting the knock sensor sort things out.....6th gear is my best friend now!!! Tim
  20. I think Steve means shift, not tilt.... Make sure that your setback plates are on the correct side.....
  21. The engine should NOT be TILTED.....it should be shifted over to the passenger side (hence the larger spacer on the driver's side), but it should not be tilted....
