Mayolives

Johnc's advice is the most practical in this situation. Cut the shaft to fit and get a quality quick release. The better ones cost more but have splines on the shaft unlike the 5 or 6 sided ones that allow the wheel to shake. Sparco makes the best one I've seen but their not giving it away.

My pedals and cylinders are Wilwood. The cylinders and reservoirs are mounted under the cowl. I doubt this could work if I had wind shield wipers.

Dude, Try the advanced search function and read!

UPDATE: Smoking On Deceleration. I decided to pull the head and do a valve job and have the turbo checked by Garrett. The turbo was still at factory spec and didn't need anything. The head work was not a bad idea but really didn't need to be done except as routine maintenance. I was using some coolant and the new Kameari head gasket seemed to take care of the water issue. After a little tuning on the dyno and looking at the Electromotive system, we discovered a bad throttle position sensor that was sending false readings and dumping lots of fuel into the system on deceleration. The smooking and eye burning exhaust fumes are gone!

UPDATE: QUOTE: I installed a . 5 gallon surge tank on my firewall under the bracing. I do have safety concerns due to having it in the engine bay and may move it to the rear whenever I decide the best way to fit it. Those nice welds did not hold up. One split and gas was pouring through the firewall and on to the passenger side floor. This was a recipe for disaster. I was on track when it happened, hit the kill switch and nervously waited for the tow vehicle to drag me in. A FIREWALL MOUNTED SURGE TANK IS AN UNSAFE AND BAD IDEA!

Yes, it posable, but why would you want to? If you are having trouble "stretching" the timing chain up enough to get gear on the cam, the tensioner has probably popped out of it's hole and is now lodged between the chain and the guide making it difficult for you to do what you are attempting. Suspend a small light down inside the cover and take a close look at what's going on.

After enduring the togetherness wars for more than a quarter century, my significant other accepted my car addiction many years ago, and is probably more content when I'm lost in my shop affairs and not bugging her. You really need to work on what's needed and proper maintenance is a must to keep a good relationship and a good car running smooth.

I have watched that video many times and it is no less exciting today than it was the first time it viewed it. Hans drives the wheels off that BumEU.

quote: " Do you try to catch the peak or take the stabilized reading?" I'm no expert at set up or tire temp. readings and I've only been using my probe for one season, but I'm more concerned with the temperature variation from inside, center and outside readings, than I am with the actual temperature reading.

I have Longacre's duel function IF with probe. The best of both worlds with many uses.

I need a ticket to admit one for the upcoming Performance Racing Industry Show in Orlando December 11-13. If you have an extra one, I sure would like to have it. A pm with details would be great.

I purchased the BHJ damper, wheel and mount from Dave Rebello.

More food for thought. After a recent valve job, I could not get enough lash on several valves. I'm using Schneider's cam, springs and retainers, The billet was new when I first installed it. Then I discovered that several rockers were touching the retainers on the outer edge and were actually pivoting on the retainer and not on the valve stem. The solution was easy. By sanding/smoothing off the underside of the rockers, I was able to get the proper lash. Several of the rockers had small "nicks" on them, indication to me that they had been touching the retainers before I refreshed to top end.

Fuel filter??????????

I didn't weigh the original ones or the fg pieces when I installed the but I assure you, the WAS as difference. The fg weighs much less. A pound here. A pound there. It all adds up!

This is how Roddy at Speed Design, Inc did mine. (Shamless plug)

I like your car. Nice job!

Like the NASCAR guys say, "just one of them racin thangs". If keeping a race car together was easy and without hassle, the track would be flooded with boneheads.

Get a radiator pressure tester and pump a little air into the system. The leak should then be visible. You can probably get the tester from a loaner program at your local Advance Auto parts store.

"You need to stay married???" My God man, get your priorities straight. Or do I go to the track too much? Humm...

Z1 Motorsports, in the Atlanta area had, a 300zx with an L6 installed. It was a customer's car and it had been stored there for some time. It was a full caged, race car that I was told, had come from Canada. It was a very interesting car and may have been a stroker due to the high, fast reving sound of it. Too bad I didn't get some pictures.

MSA advertises it but they do not have one in stock. It's on the boat, somewhere out there.

I'm looking for a replacement HKS 1mm, 91mm bore head gasket but I'm being told they are no longer available. Any ideas as to where I can find one? The Kameari website shows a 1mm, 90.5mm one for the L6. Any opinions on that one and the best place to get it?

These guys are located in Salisbury NC and build axles for race cars. They made a set for me last year. http://www.driveshaftshop.com/contact.php
