Guest Grenade300 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I have been part of this forum for a few years now. After my trip to Baghdad and saving a lot of money; I finely got my LS1 and T56 in and started! Thanks to all you guys who took the time to help me with my silly questions. The information on this board has been the best. Couldn’t have done it without ya’ll. Here are the specs: 1973 240 Z LS1 and T56 from 2002 Camaro SS JCI Mounts SLP MAF sensor K&N Cone filter Custom ECU programming 16 gal Summit racing fuel cell Aeromotive Fuel Pump Aeromotive fuel regulator FAST fuel Rails Tilton 7/8” Master Cylinder -8AN Stainless braided fuel lines supply (-6AN Return line) Eibach Lowering Springs (Progressive Rate) “Jags That Run” V8 Z Radiator Black Magic 16” Cooling Fan Stand alone engine wire harness I will be taking it to the shop soon to have the exhaust installed. I have Borla mufflers and an “X” pipe sitting in my closet ready to go in. I think when I removed my Vacuum booster I shook loose the reaction disk, my brakes are acting funny, either “on or off”. So I will be fixing that ASAP. I’m Probably just going to order a brand new vacuum booster. AS ALWAYS, YOUR INPUT IS WELCOME. I am still running open headers, so I only took it for a drive about 100 meters down the road. I did my swap at the auto shop on the military post so I could just envision the Military Police having field day with the fact I was running open headers. Not to mention, I’m sure you could hear it clear across post. I gotta say, it felt incredibly powerful. THANKS AGAIN GUYS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Grenade300 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I posted some pics on my yahoo photos page. the photo of the engine installed is taken with a camera phone since I lost my digital camera (GRRR) so the quality is crap. I will post more pics when I get the disposable camera developed. (Yeah! disposable cameras) The link is http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/wheelman240z/album?.dir=/abe3scd Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
