you inspired me too, except you have alot more money than i do hahah, the new work looks excellent keep it up!

well ive got my motor mocked up and i found a height i like (doing custom mounts for my v8 ) however the pan sits 2 inches lower than the cross member haha. so i was wondering where i can do some reading on modifying the pickup and the pan without damaging things... any info appreciated and here are some pictures http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/album?.dir=1a78

it must be nice to have warm weather, im glad to see you pushing again mike hehe.

thanks hehe ' date=' nope i just made tons of tabs hehe yeah i still cant decide what to build for a motor hehe yeah it kept sliding and falling luckily i didnt dent the stupid aluminum. yeah i worked 50 hours for free so that i could build the cage at the shop i worked at. i love how it came out its very easy to get in and out of and very rigid

http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/detail?.dir=b912&.dnm=6f01.jpg&.src=ph finally got the stupid thing in place, take a look and let me know what ya think !

it is real THIS WAS POSTED BY MY JERK FRIEND WHO USES MY PASSWORD I was just messin with everyone....I put my name in myself with black RTV.....

ok so get this i showed my mom and she scratched it off ! underneath is nooooothing ! theres no scribing or anything just clean metal. thats where the outer window to body seal was, i checked the seal noooooooothing soooo weird

ok so i was making some lexan quarter windows for my Z and while reassembling them i noticed this http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/detail?.dir=/64b4&.dnm=2420.jpg&.src=ph this is no joke or hoax, my name is peter and in a smudge of window sealant my name is written on the little aluminum window trim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im scared http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/detail?.dir=64b4&.dnm=289f.jpg&.src=ph theres a further shot

http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/album?.dir=b912 theres all the poopoo ive been working on for 3 years now

http://www.araoengineering.com/Chevy/chvysmb2.htm i saw these too while poking around, although they dont look new or cheap but i still want them

soooooo in a twisted bit of irony, i was on the jenvey-dynamics website i looked to see who sells them in the states: RABYs aircooled technology, who happens to be my bosses porsche engine builder whom we are going to see and get an engine from in march and spend a week hanging out with while we race at road atlanta. this is a really weird twist of events but this RABY guy is a genius and ill be able to pick his brain and take notes

well i talked to my friend jay who is also a hybridzer briefly last night, and once the setup is tried and tested i couldnt expect to ever ask more than 2000 for it. he works at a machine shop and hes also an engineering student so between the two of us we could definitely engineer something sweet. we probably wouldnt sell it as a whole plug and play kit, we would use something like megasquirt or maybe we would offer just the throttle bodies and the manifold. ive been trying to figure out how difficult it would be to make our own throttle bodies exactly how we want them but i really need to get my hands on a bunch of different types before i can do that. this project is really exciting me, ive gotta get a motor up and running and in my car lickety split so i can get this project moving before summer

ive got a 600cfm edelbrock thats got about 1500 miles on it id sell with the tuning kit if your interested

awesome, so do you guys think that if i marketed a product like this thats been tested and proven on my car and a bunch of my friends mustangs and stuff like that people would buy it ?

that layout on the quad cam motor is almost exactly the style i want to run, im thinking about making one base manifold similar to those then make spacers so that the setup can be modified on the dyno to increase the runner length much like carb spacers, until we get an optimal setup for what we are running. on down draft carbs i read its better to tune using manifold length than it is to try and tune using the "ram tubes" but their justification was that its because it allows the fuel more time to atomize in the manifold, so does running efi nullify the manifold length (within reason)

im building a 350, i really think the 42 is too small each cylinder will only see a speed of like 350 cfm, if a single 42 mm throttle body could flow 100 hp each then why are 4 used on a bike like a gsxr that makes under 200 hp? on a 1 litre motor

the hayabusa ones seem too small, from the research ive done. ill have to look up this jap spec 20v stuff.

i talked to a guy thats been building racing teching cars and bikes (specifically suzukis) for 3 decades and he said to run 4 pair of throttle bodies off of a tl1000s because they use one injector per tb. iskone: what book did you read? zrossa: whats a 4ag? i have the facilities to custom make a manifold, and from the research ive done so far this all looks relatively feasible for about 500 bucks and alot of work on my end which doesnt frighten me in the least. webers are too expensive and nice to gut, id rather start with a solid piece of aluminum and make my own throttle bodies, but id need to disect one first. john dixon: what price did you pay and whats a good price?

http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/detail?.dir=d6f2&.dnm=d957.jpg&.src=ph just got the stereo in yesterday, today im going to retrofit the stock heater controls into it aswell

its probably not the easiest answer, but if you pull the manifold youll be able to check the flange to see how warped it is, if its warped take it to a GOOOD machine shop and ask them to mill it just enough to flatten it out. make sure to cross torque your bolts just like you would wheel lug nuts, IMO thatll leave no way for the flange to warp again, also make sure to check the mating surface on the turbo it might not be the manifold at all

heh alright should be interesting trying to template those

after working so hard on making my dash fancy, i kinda wanna go all out on my intake side of the motor im building. i was wondering if anyone has a link for a page that anyone has done this, ive seen tons of other individual throttle bodies. but not the gsxr ones.

ilike it alot too, however i dont know that to do with the space between the two sides and the center piece, any ideas?
