Challenger

Do you think it makes a difference having the whole radiator open but only a 3x.5 ft opening letting air in compared to part of the radiator open and a 3x.5 ft opening? Hard to explain but hopefully you understand.

This is what I have so far. It will block everything off above the bottom of the headlight bucket (aka above the bumper). This weekend Im going to work on removing any brackets (turn signals, etc) from the radiator area to make room for it. Right now Im just making templates, when I get them all to where I think itll fit Im going to make it out of the pressboard wood and then stretch felt over it and make it out of fiberglass. Fiberglass will be new to me so any suggestions are welcome.

Buy it and work on it with your son. I go my car wen I was 11 and with all the work Ive put into it, when Its finally finished Im going to appreciate it ALOT. That means no speeding, or spinning the tires....

Are headlight buckets that have the original factory cover mounts worth anything?

Is that 250-270hp wheel or flywheel? Id like to see that motor, sounds nice.

So 200% throttle would actually be idle...

You didnt know about that mod?!? Stock a Z only opens the throttle halfway. Removing it will get you the rest of the throttle which equals power....

Any progress on this? Ive been loking at 318' and 360's lately and wonder what things would have to be done different compared to a conventional 350 sbc. Most of the links and pictures when I searched didnt work.

Id go and get a NA motor from a Zx. Go to Idaho Z car in Nampa, theyve got like a billion.

I love that car. I dnt remember where I saw that but I have it saved to my computer. One of my favorite 280zx's. How hard is it to find a gnose for a zx? http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c294/DevilZX/12386p_iton_05.jpg Did you find it here or was it posted somewhere? Id like to get more pictures. (that was the link to where the picture was from) fantagon- No big progress yet, havent had the time. Im on winter break now so I should get something done.

Sorry about your bad day. My mom was driving our suburban and the alternator went out so it just died. A cop came and told her she cant break down right here theres to much traffic. My mom wanted to tell him, "o yeah I was gonna break down right in parking lot up there but I just couldnt wait."

Anyone put a sub in the area where the fuel vapor box goes (in the inside of the rear quarters)?

I just noticed this in some old photos. My car has a hole and tube in the inner fender that looks like it vents air. Not sure if Ill make it bigger but atleast they (datsun) knew what the problem was.

Yeah I noticed that. Im always looking on craigslist and never find any of these good deals close to me.

I like how they dramatize the power of each of the cars. "The LT1 is a Corvette engine and its outfitted with a computer chip that gives it more power then the general public would see." "The supercharged rocketship goes 0-60 in 5 point 7 seconds!!!!"

I bought my outer glass piece your talking about from BD and its really nice.

This is why my car insurance is so expensive. I say we skin the kid.

My Crf250r had the Unicam head which was a single cam with three lobes. The outsides activated the intake valves which were directly below it and the middle lobe lifted a rocker that split to activate the two intakes. I liked it because it was easy to adjust and if you buy a performance cam, its only one.

No I need to get out there, need a couple parts. Im on winter break so Ill try to get out there.

My grandpa used to have a small dropper of ecanesia and one of halbenaro extract(really hot!!) and they looked almost identical. Goes to the fridge to get the ecanesia to put drops in his eyes (helps eyes) and accidentaly grabs the halbenaro. Well you know the rest of the story. I had a similar experience to you but with my eyes.

So your saying (RPM)x(Length)=Length? Proxlamus had an equation that he determined his runner length for his custom intake. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=126916

So the point is the shift so when you get into the next ratio your around the peak power?

I dont see much of a difference of the suspension setup compared to a normal car. Isnt there alot more to drift cars?

Is there a possibility of doing a completely stock 2+2? Just a quick base line to see the difference? Im sure there is somone with a 2+2 that would help.

Nice car! I love the dash, reminds me of the new Lambo Reventon dash (looks like a jet fighter instrument panel) Id like to do something like this on a s30.....
