  1. As much of a pain it would be as opposed to buying a new FI 350 (or similar) I would love to build a fuel injected 302 SBC. I wouldn't have to retrain my thought process about when to shift as in the existing L6. A decent 302 build would almost equate to the same shifting patterns, plus have a V8 at that.
  2. I got mine wired up a couple weeks ago... (and my car IS blue ) I'll have to roll it out to get a pic. The beam seems to be pretty good on this set.. it has a pretty good horizontal cutoff pattern.
  3. Ok, thought of a small one.. When driving the SHO one day, the check oil light came on...but I was in a hurry going somewhere but I was near the house. I pulled up to the garage, opened the hood (car still running) and put about a half a quart of oil until I was ready to change it. While pouring the oil, (without a funnel) some went onto the exhaust manifold and promptly caught fire. Lotsa wires up front of the SHO, plastic fans, etc... No fire extinguisher at my house.... so I did the next best thing... grabbed a solo cup and started dumping water as fast as I could on it from a nearby faucet (no hose in sight).. It finally went out and the next day I bought a good fire extinguisher...I was going to be welding the floor panels in the truck that weekend )
  4. That sucks.... Two things I hate... A liar and a theif... JT, I am fairly close by you, I'll keep my eyes open and let others I know around here to do the same..
  5. Because, for some reason, Motor Trend likes soccer moms.. Its a truck for the yuppies. Actually, it just LOOKS like a truck.
  6. I am still awaiting my time to get out there..... and I want it BAD..
  7. I made mine with some fuel rail stock... http://www.cruez.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=4&pos=2
  8. posted last week http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=106656
  9. I wish I could get another tip, that one has about had it. Its hard to find genuine ANSA tips that style anymore.. especially with a 2 1/2" ID inlet. I love the way those tips sound though.. It came on some Ferraris and Lambos.
  10. I feel my skin crawling..... yuck.
  11. I feel better now.... it looks worse than mine http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=106590 Mine work on that is on a slight delay though...
  12. LFS is much better with a FF wheel. I got the ActLabs Force feedback wheel when I was beta testing MCO. MCO had some decent physics, but not as good as LFS.. I'm not sure I would play LFS without a wheel.
  13. Holy crap that looks very nice, I like the job that was done on the plenum. Its beautiful ! I guess different companies call that color on the valve cover different things.. We call it Prismatic black. Thats the first time I've seen it on a valve cover though.. I got an extra one here... I ought to shoot one to see what it looks liek in person It looks great on it. Did you fab the turbine cover ?? It the air conditioner still in that car ??
  14. I had that problem after my mods and the stock FI, without the cold start installed. I have since changed to a Haltech unit which has yet to be programmed. Since I can adjust to allow no more fuel when the car is warm, I believe this will solve the problem.
  15. The graphics are fine just not up to par with some of the games that are coming out now...but not horrible.. but the physics of the game are unmatched... I got my wheel out the other day and have been playing it off and on.. Very realistic... especially with a force feedback wheel..
  16. I was watching a show that tested some type of air ride setup that performed BETTER than it did stock, on a track.
  17. He was running a decent click BEFORE he put down the pedal...
  18. http://www.cruez.com/cars/z.wmv Its a little dated, a lot of misc engine components have changed... The chirping sound is from the burned out ANSA tip. I need more free time !! I miss driving it ...but at least it will be a lot better when the project is finally finished.
  19. Thats the same link for the engine I posted on the first page

    Z vs ZX ?

    ARGGH... he said CAMERO ! sorry... just a pet peeve..
  21. Nice runs... You're running that monster without wheelie bars Too bad the truck wouldn't stage... that would have been amusing to say the least.
