  1. I dont think that is a very good idea at all, esp using the NA injectors with a ton of fuel pressure, its a bandaid fix at best.
  2. Wont work well with NA electronics, dont even try, I did, wish I hadnt.
  3. How silly of me, it doesnt even specify that it is for a Z... It was late, ahwell, it could be!
  4. Im guessing this is the wrong section, but check this out! http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/pts/1030994082.html Talk about a rare part! somebody on here going to pic this up?
  5. Any links to more pictures of the above car? Sorry for the thread jack
  6. If he gets that asking price I will eat my shoe. But no, I have seen a few go for more then that on ebay, they wernt 100% stock though so idk if it counts.
  7. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/local/carroll/bal-md.fastcar07feb07,0,2315880.story?page=1 0-60 in 1 second, 1/4 mile in UNDER 7.
  8. Play with the dizzy while trying to start it. Edit:what about firing order?
  9. Check out msa but be ready to spend some serious bank.
  10. I didnt notice how old you said you son was but when I was going through this with my parents, oh about 6 years ago, I was around 11, I to wanted to move in with my father and my mothers lawyer flat out told her that the judge will listen to what I want and have somebody go out and inspect my fathers house to make sure it is up to par when it comes to having a child there.
  11. Very great deal. have fun with it.. side note, I cant build boost when I free rev either
  12. I bought the clutch brand new, installed it, drove the car for 100 miles, then converted the engine to turbo... and yeah, it was installed properly, and I never installed a used clutch on my car. Its a simple problem of the clutch not being able to hold the increased torque. And maybe you missed the part where I bought the engine? why did I buy an engine when I know the headgasket wasnt in the best condition you ask? Well it had new ARP head studs and exhaust/intake studs and I paid 75$ for the thing.
  13. Thanks for the concern but Im not sure where you are getting your info, please reread the thread, clutch was new, it was slipping because of the power. and blowing a head gasket is not at all uncommon in the early stages of a turbo build, if you disagree try a search. oh, and I didnt put the engine together, I bought it from a friend.
  14. Yeah I am still using the fusible links... one of mine actually burnt up today and I have no idea why. And yeah, The engine has ARP hardware, so thats a big plus.
  15. Got the charging problem fixed, had it running real good and the ECU finaly started going into closed loop mode... then I blew my headgasket. The gasket had been on and off the head a few times during engine assembly so it wasnt that good anyways, But really, why is my car only problem free for two day bursts.
  16. Im not sure what the ECU question has to do with the tranny thing but yes, the ECU's are different, but they dont affect the transmission at all
  17. Well I got it running again tonight, the problem was a combo of a bad CAS and a bad ECU... after that and some fidling with the timing she fired right up. I was happy. There are still a few kinks that I need to work out though, The altenator doesnt charge, the dash lights wont come on, and the car was STUPID SLOW when it was off boost. I am fairly sure that all of these are connected, running on 4v's could cause the slowness and maybe the lights, so I will check all of that wiring tomorrow, and I already have another alt if I need it. Tonight was a good night. Thanks everybody for your help, and if you happen to have any ideas about the kinks I wouldnt mine hearing them although Im pretty sure I can take care of it. Oh, and my brand new but stock type clutch with like 100 miles on it slipped pretty bad, I had to toy the throttle on boost to get it to catch.
  18. I really like that, gives me some hood ideas for my firends ls1 swap Im working on, very cool!
  19. The ECU has yet to arrive, it should be on its way though
