You guys make me feel much better. I love that I stumbled onto this thread at 12:45. I better go now, I have a double work load tomorrow 'cause I've been on here all afternoon/evening/night!

SUPER SERIES 44 FLOWMASTER IS WORTH ABOUT 40 HP SOUNDS FRICKEN GREAT AND GIVES GREAT TORQUE. THE GUY THAT BUILDS THESE IS A SMART DUDE HE DESIGNED THE MUFFLERS FOR THE STEALTH FIGHTERS AND i READ AN ARTICLE THAT SAYS YOUR EXHAUST CAN COST YOU BIG HP IF NOT RIGHT.NASCAR CLAIMS GAINS OF 20-50 HPBY CHANGING DIAMETER AND LENGTH OF EXHAUST.A STEP DOWN HEADER AND OR TUBES WILL BRING A GAIN.THE NASCAR GUYS SAY THE DIAMETER OF THE PIPE CHANGES INTAKE DRAW TO CYLINDERS.OK NUFF 4 NOW,B
Nascar 800 hp engines make 20-50 hp from re-engineering there exhaust, but bolting this flowmaster on your Datsun six will net you 40 hp. WOW!

It's like driving a Sherman tank. There is no guts in the car, no carpet, no sound deadener - nothing. It's loud and obnoxious, and good God - the fumes are unreal.
I can now vouch, and oh yeah.. ITS FAST!

hahahahaha.
there was one female RB'er.
not sure where she scurried off to! her boyfriend coaxed her into doin a swap... maybe the relationship between woman, man, and machine went sour.
Yeah, that woman, man, and machine three-way never works.. thats why I keep my woman on the side.

Hey, if I won the lotto for $110 Million Lump Sum after taxes, we would set up a testing WEEK and have guys in to set up their personal cars as my 'thanks' to the site.
A-MEN to that. I owe this site an incredible 'thanks', and if ever the ability arises I will gladly pay back. Sorry if I'm off topic.

Thats an awesome price. I don't know about the s362, but my friend has a Borg Warner t3/t4 with s.s. exhaust housing and that thing is awesome. 290 front whp on 16lbs, 1.8 liter. If any of that helps.

Boy am I glad to see her running. Congratulations... it gives us all hope!
-
Why not put the M112 on the VH?

It's good to know the ole girl is spinning slicks in a town near me!

Look up the Koenigsegg (formorly fastest production car in the world). Its got two! Also hks sells them as a kit for 350Z. Planetary gears, self contained oil, great efficiency, and oh yeah its quiet!

I just stumbled upon this post and had to go through and read/inspect everything. Another late night. But in all seriousness for those of you who haven't had the pleasure to personally see this car coming together in stages I must say it is a sight! Tim, I can't wait to hear 'er run buddy. You are making OUTSTANDING progress by my standards... then again you probably don't want to be judged by those.

$4500 I'll be buying some cars and driving them to KY for that!
Yeah, you don't see diesel Maximas on this side of the Mississippi. the unopened engine alone would bring 500$ or more, the whole car running and driving would bring 2500 to 4500. It's ridiculous. -
Jegs has an s30 tube frame kit for like $600!
-
just a heads up.
You really should read this thread and the links that acompany it. And make SURE your mn47 head and your cylinder block have not been decked. That is a sure fire way to have valve/piston contact.

Now, (again, according to wiki, )the 4.3, and the 3.1L engine in my buddy's 95 Lumina (also from late 3rd gen F-bodies), and numerous other V6s including a 3.8 liter, are incarnations of the gen II (or revision II, i remember the roman numeral for sure) 60* V6, which was a WHOLLY wholly different engine.
No, the 4.3 is of a different family than the 60* v6, and it is a 90*. The 2.8 and 3.1 however, ARE related.

Thank you for the bump! I am inspired.

Thinking of selling my '72, just putting feelers out right now.
-
Wow, I didn't know there was such a good local hybrid z shop. I'll have to come check you guys out.
-
Still lookin?
-

You pretty much need every thing. The power rack and pinion uses a different crossmember and I believe different tie rods. Getting the rack and crossmember off is kind of a pain but it all comes off in one piece. Then just remove the pump and lines and I think you're done. Double check the steering shaft though, because I'm not sure if they're identical. Also, if you decide to do the swap I have some of the parts I would trade for the non-power rack and pinion with crossmember. Good luck!

Cool! What side markers are those? I like 'em!
