    is this legal??

    A novel idea for sure and likely fun to play with but, priced at a sale price of $225.00.....you got to be kinding!!! Shoot, the refill is only $25.00.....so where is the other $200.00 in parts? Certainly not in what is pictured!
  2. Tim, so when is the LS1 going in the baby?
  3. Heck, it was probably a Monday or Friday car! Still, the new Vettes are pretty bad *** car the $$$!!!
  4. I'm surprised knowone mentioned the maximum RPM limit on there engines! Even if all the other issues were resolved, you'd be pretty limited speed wise don't you think? Grand idea for sure....but sometimes they are best left as just an idea!
  5. Thats a pretty broad question.....one could write pages about it! Of interest is the fact that the picture you showed is from someones cataloge....hmmmm, might be a good place to start. The wheel you are showing is relatively inexpensive. Cheaper and wide, unless its a steel wheel, is dreaming!!!
  6. Those should work well, as long as there is enough room between the bolt heads and the header tubes to install the retainer.
  7. Your motor needs to breath....go with the larger of the two!
  8. BACK PRESSURE! So misunderstood. I no I don't what any on my 4 stroke motors.
  9. Something to think about! As you know, a check valve allows flow in only one direction. If installed to allow air flow into the tank, which is the way I would assume you are installing it, then it will certainly prevent the tank from collapsing.....but what about when the car is not running and its a pretty hot day.....what then happens as the fuel/fumes expand?
  10. Isn't that interesting, a street tire that sucks as a race tire!!?
  11. If you're looking for a good high performance street tire, you may want to take a look at the Yokohama AVS ES100. Not a race tire by any means, but for the street it hard to beat the price and performance.
  12. Scottie, How about using a dremel and just grind or sand away the coating, in the area you intend to weld?
  13. I think those guys have been breathing too much nitrous!!!
  14. They are manufactured in Taiwan!
  15. Dave Rebello offers an SU carb'd 3L motor w/285HP. Of course the SU's are punched out to 50mm. Quote was around $6000.00
  16. Before long you'll be driving a really nice Z and looking back on all the TLC it took to get-r-done. Patients!
  17. Hey, all I know right now is....its sunny out and no predictions for rain thru Sunday! Yeehay! Let see, do I drive my Z, ride my CRF450R, ride my Ventana X5, or ride the couch!!? Anyone but the last will do!
  18. Outstanding!!! I had a good laugh. Thanks for sharing.
  19. Pretty funny commercial......Germans making fun of the bling bling ricer crowd.
  20. You might consider trying the search function......the info you are looking for has been debated many times and is in the archives.
  21. Ah come on guys, I thought everyone knew that fiberglass front spoilers are disposable items! Man do they make big ugly noises when they are subjected to stationary objects or pavement! I've got the lowered Z car, so I certainly know what you all are talking about....been through a coulpe in five years. Just gotta pay attention to what you drive over...............!
  22. Good idea, documenting your rebuild! Plus it fun to look back on all the things that transpired when you get it back to a driver. And if you ever decide to sell it (god forbid), documentation and photos are worth their weight in gold! Its one thing to say you did something and another when you have documented proof. I kept a daily log during my rebuild (many many pages) and it has come in very handy when trying to recall some specific detail for someone asking a question in the forums.
  23. You may also notice that the later crossmembers have additional material on the steering rack mounting tabs. The early ones are a single stamped piece and the later ones add a piece that essentially boxes in the rack mounting tabs.
  24. Are you saying someone ripped off your engine?
