  3. Glad to hear you made it there safe. Enjoy the culture and the cars. I'd love to walk the junk yards there.
  4. It counts if you get the greenbacks.
  5. Sorry for the http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7982762387&category=36475
  6. You do it and then tell us why we shouldn't.
  7. Good rules, I have the no Fords rule myself.
  8. Let us know how it fits. And you have to take a couple pics once you get it installed. I'm curious as to how much lower it is compared to the stock lower valance. I agree with Davy, it is one sexy front fascia.
  9. I'm a subscriber... no pull out ad. July 05 correct? "Despite the long nose, this car has never told a lie." ad
  10. I'm going to set up my own buisness for adding custom rock rash and tree scratches to the mall wheelers. For an extra $500 I'll even dent in your rockers.
  11. When the car was cheepest part of the project.
  12. Found a body for the Kart http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2592&item=5979222639&rd=1
  13. All your friends and family refer to the car by the name you gave it. (Mines Dauty) When someone comes up to you in a parking lot and goes "Wow I had one of those back in '77 but it didn't sound like that!" When people come up to you to race someone else to knock down their huge ego. I've got a note pad in the glove box for what came off what car in parts.
  14. I'm 70% sure that the clutch is installed right, I didn't change much when I upgraded the 305. But I did go with a thinner light weight flywheel... It lanches great and I don't have any problems with it untill I hit 4500 rpm in 3rd and 4th, and then it just breaks free. It's a really light pedal and I think the springs are too soft.
  15. You know you could do a slight mini-tub and then flair it
  16. I’ve spent half the day searching and reading for clutch recommendations. And so far I have not gotten a good idea for what to use. I’ve read a lot for applications on the L28 and they seem to like the Act and Centerforce clutches. I’m running a 305 out of an ’85 Camaro with a matching T5 and a light weight flywheel. I put a new oem replacement clutch in broke it in proper, but it is slipping with the extra hp. The 305 is beefed up and I thought an oem clutch would still hold up sense the 280z is lighter than the Camaro, I was wrong. I have not been able to dyno it because of the slipping clutch so I’m not sure what kind of numbers I’m putting down, but it should not be too outrageous, it’s only a 305. But I am planning on adding a 150 shot latter. So what are you running with how much power?
  17. Tim... true true Anyone want to bye a Seca II?
  18. My reasoning is that I have $900 in the bike, I should get a minimum of $1600 out if it. 421 RWhp through a turbo 350 trans is not too shabby, but I suspect that the engine could use a better cam and is probably over carbed. Being a complete turn key engine the engine in it's total of parts is worth more than the $900 I have in the bike and probably worth more than the bike at a sell out price. I built my 305 myself and have done the pricing to build a 350 to replace it.
