  1. With my first Z I ran it in the 10's with the stock fuel line and a Mallory 110 pump. Put on larger fuel line , no faster. Just some real world results, no book learning.
  2. Put on a tall front tire and shallow stage it, theres your 10 second pass.
  3. Time to gut it out , streach the rear wheel wells, and throw a tube chassis under it. Twin turbos , tube chassis, 7 seconds here we come.
  4. Treausre the time with your Dad. Sounds like a great man. I lost my Mom on one of those 2am calls last year. Our parents were made of some tough stuff. My Dad went through the depression, WW2 , and rasing a couple of rotten rug rats. I can only hope to be as good as my folks.
  5. Come on Dr Hunt, your the only guy I see on here that can give me a run. It's lonley out here, LOL.
  6. How many of you killers have blown the bottom end out of a 2 bolt block? I am sure 99% of you guys really need a 4 bolt block. Oh yea, that 4 bolt block makes you so much faster.
  7. Didn't see any where else to put this question, but are we going to have a Chat section on this board?
  8. May be I need to pull off a plug wire and make a run. LOL.
  9. In my Z before my current one I did a back half with 2X3 rails, a 4 link and the stock front suspension. Worked out pretty good, mid 9's on the back half Z. The new one with a full tube chassis wacked anothe second off the old back half set up. Put in a nine inch and don't worry about breaking the irs stuff.

    Chat?

    No chat, no timeslips, it looks like it all went away or I am not looking in the right place.
  11. I don't see it listed any where. Maybe they did away with it with this new format.
  12. A light car with a lot of H.P. and a butt load of gear multiplication is trouble. I run a 1.89 first with a 4.86 rear gear and it gets out of the way very well. Low to High, pretty simple.
  13. Time for a glide. That should ruffle some feathers.
  14. A one second quarter mile et at 7 mph. Din't see a time slip though, HA HA.
  15. The 7 inch rim will be fine.The narrower rim will alow the tire to grow more on the top end than a wider rim.
  16. DYNO'S , We don't need no stinking DYNO'S. Take off from treasure of the siera madra. Why worry about a dyno chart? The quarter mile is your dyno. If you went faster and quicker you must have done something right.
  17. The Datsun is narrow and short. You are better off getting some tube and doing it yourselt. It wouls be hard to fit another chassis under a Datsun Z.

    rear end help

    OK, if you are going to tub it narrow the rear housing. Go 4 link with the rear suspension. My rear housing is 24 1/2" axel flange to flange is 30". I run a 15X14 rim with 3 1/2" bs and a 32X14.5w hoosier slick with no fitment problems. Forget about the th400 and put a glide in it.
  19. stroke on a 350 is 3.48" when one piston is at the top the lowest piston should be down 3.48 inches.
  20. 4 link is the way to go. I used the Chassisworks eliminator 2 set up. It has provisions for the antiroll bar and wheelie bars. Might as well use the wishbone also.
  21. Called Ed Quay and ordered off their pro rear spoiler. Sent off a letter to MAS racing to get their catalog as I am in search of a glass one piece front end for the Z also.
