What is the length of the valve cover?

Probably wont rurn out at all, im thinking of going a different directio.

Its just a goof around project. Its not gonna be very good at anything really. Going for an old, inline 4 indian boardtracker style look.

Thank you very much. I guess i was just using incorrect terms.

Im searching for info on the crank trigger setup but I am not having very good results. Could you steer me in the right direction please?

I would very much like to use an l28 for a motorcycle project but I have some questions and I have been doing quite bit of searching to find answers. I used to have a turbo motor for a z build but that is long gone now so I dont have any way of taking measurements or vizualizing what I need. 1. Could you theoretically run 6 small carbs, one for each cylinder? My thinking behind this would be to use very short individual intake manifolds. 2. Will there be any negative side effects to using very short intake manifolds( basically 1-2 inches long) 3. Is there any kind of "low profile" distributor design out there? Basically the smallest most unobtrusive ignition setup possible? Any way of getting rid of the distributor that O am not aware of?

What are the basic LxWxH dimensions of an L6 with valve cover? I havent been on here in YEARS.

exactly, i cant go out and ride(well its because i wrecked not because its cold) so i gotta keep my mind occupied.

ll no big deal, we just did it for fun. im 21, my lil bro is 19, im the one in silver and black.

Nice helmet BTW...what do you ride? i ride a kawasaki ZRX 1100, the helmet is a n OGK FF4(the best you can get without spending arai money) hahaha.. well i wouldn't describe it as being funny but check out David Elsewhere, whose skill is greater by about... 100000000 times. Yeah, i can do alot of the elswhere stuff, keep in mind im wearing a full leather suit, and they dont exactly allow for much movement.

i would have been the youngest compettitor in the eco challenge several years ago had i not broken my hand. me and 3 friends of my were going to compete as a boy/girl scout team. would have been cool

the odds of me doing any typ of nhra events are slim, no worried about that. Iwould like to be able todo some SCCA events. Thank you to everyone who has contibuted thus far.

thank you very much, thats exactly what i was looking for.

My chasis is going to prison for a while for some fab and paint work(stitch welding,roll cage, and paint) Do any of you guys have a diagram of some of your rollcages that you would be willing to let me use in my z? I want as much protection as possible. I dunno if this is too tall an order but im looking for a something that incorporates the cage as an actual part of the chasis. In other words, i want the cage to be connected to all the major suspension mounting points in the car, to stiffen it up a bit. If you guys have any info,links, actual diagrams you can spare it would be greatly appreiciated. if you send me a diagram of your personal cage and its the one i use, ill throw you some free powdercoating for my trouble. Thanx

look how far bewack he set the motor in the engine bay, hes either gonna turbo or supercharge it.

I lost my keys, does anyone know how i can get a new set? or am i gonna have to get a new key and ignition switch set?

can you say "bling bling yes, but is that blower clutched? the pipes say v8, but truth says v twin

never tried it, i guessif you could keep the smoke out and keep the temperature high and steady anough, and create some kinda oven type box i dont see why it couldnt. But why not just buy an ol piece of crap used oven and use that eh?

go with powdercoating bro, you wont be disappointed.

Havent used a data pack yet. We tend to stick with industry standards for curing methods(all powders come with suggested curing times and temps). I cant say that i have ever had a failure, or any complaints sticking with this method and i have been doing this for a long time. No offense to you, or the company you work for, but i dont trust tiger drylac(bad experiences with thier powder). I try to stick with cardinal, dupont, and sherwin williams. The only other company i use extensively is prismacolor, and thats only for custom colors. We are fairly low tech, and we arent a big company,about 1.5 mill a year(this years is gonna be a record high). I try to stay away from motorcycle wheels unless they are spoked, i have heard similar horror stories and its just too muchg of a liability as far as im concerned. Cars on the other hand, i never turn anythign down, and ive never had any issues, i didnt know you were a coater jamie. forgot to say, we dont just shoot our wheels and such cold. they are cleaned and prepped, rolled in the oven to preaheat, and then i switch out my colors, by the time im ready to shoot the wheels(or whatever part) thay are already heated all the way through. This cuts our curing times down quite a bit.

Anything to help the z car community!!

he WAS a mechanical engineer, but now hes a stunt bike rider full time, apparently it pays the bills.
