  1. I sent the guy a message through the youtube site, ill let you guys know if he responds
  2. wow thats alot of motor in that car, whats the rest of the cars setup like?
  3. I have seen that car before too, badass ride.
  4. Did you have to modify them at all to make them fit. I Have a 280z with a small block and I was wondering if they would fit. Do you know how much difference there is between the zx and z engine compartment. This would help me out a alot of they did fit. Where are you gonna place the wastegate at? James
  5. Are those the ssautochrome headers? Looks good. James
  6. What did the air fuel meter do when the nitrous was activated? James
  7. I run 26x8.5x15 slick and I have run 235/60/15 drag radials and they are both about the same. I'll definently come by and say hi next time im down. James
  8. I saw your car down at the stadium the last time you raced it,absolutely awesome car man I really like it. Next time you have it down there you should run it on the left side, They dont do any prep on the right side at all. I have a vega that I run down there and I have get between 1.4-1.5 60fts on the left side all night long. Looking forward to seeing your car run on the slicks next time out.
  9. HAHA, I would like to know how many people selling their cars would actually let you do that. LOL Never thought of that though.....pretty cool
  10. interesting that it split there? How much compression do the stock lt1's have?
  11. Man thats awesome for only 5.5 lbs. Get a good head gasket in there and that thing should be an monster. Is it a t56 or a tko transmission? James
  12. Is that a t70, have you done anything else to the motor. Let us know how it runs?
  13. I dont remember his user name but john phillips they guy that had the little z on pinks that hauls ass has a corvette diff in his. James
  14. Yea that website is kinda what made me want to build a turbo setup. I actually read completely through that thread and it took me about 2 weeks of reading on it at night. It is absolutely amazing what you can do with a good worn in small block. I spent about 4 hours tonight reading through all the noobie stuff and you were right, almost every question I would have had was answered. It seems to me for a street car two of the t3/t4 hybrid turbos would work well. I think im gonna start a build thread in a week or two when I start getting some more of the parts in. James
  15. No im gonna find them cheap ones, while were talking about this I want to ask some questions. I have never messed with turbo setups I have a couple friends that I have seen messing with turbos on their imports but nothing really in depth. I have been reading alot about blow through setups and im gonna go that direction just because I have alot of the parts already needed for it like carb, bonnet, fuel pump and regulator. Im not really sure what turbos that I should look at buying though. The motor is going to be a 400 small block, it has a set of forged dished trw pistons, eagle rods and a stock cast crank. Im going to be using a set of factory gm 441 heads so the compression should be right around 8.5 to 1. I want to get the turbo setup dialed in then put a real motor together for the setup. Will two t3t4's work for me......maybe to small or to big...... I need somone that knows a little more about turbo sizes and stuff to point me in a direction. Anything helps James
  16. Yea, im gonna go ahead and order them and set them up with a mock up motor to see if they fit. James
  17. I have searched and found some info on this companies stuff and everyone seems to be bashing them. Are they really that bad? I ran across them and am really just interested in the headers. Also, has anyone actually put these on a sbc in the z engine bay or ran them? They kinda look like they would fit, I emailed them trying to get some dimensions and got no response. James
