Re: My IROC-Z Plan

Hmmm with an LSX and T56, you should get a nitrous gauge and vacuum? Trans temp would be pointless with a T56, and you're goin to want a wide band tune on the car so an A/F really wouldn't do any good either.

Seriously, get those wheels, I think 18's are perfect for our cars, as long as tire size isn't some 1" low profile tire,....I H8 that.

Interior looks great BTW. You should shave down or cut out a piece of your dash to set the iroc emlbem flush with the dash itself, kind of where the stock emblem went on the passenger side dash portion.

-Take care once again.
I made the mistake of moving. Actually, the moving part was good, the post move is not so good. I'll be back on that just as soon as I convince my girlfriend that having the carbon press in a 1 bedroom apartment is acceptable (shouldn't take too long).

Re: My IROC-Z Plan

I would seriously consider a mechanical oil pressure gauge for the pod. They are quick to accept pressure changes and are pretty accurate. I would actaully get both pressure and temp gauges as they are both a big deal to me. But other than that man, the car is absolutely amazing. I am happy to see someone do these cars justice. I wish i had the money and time to go through my car like that. But school and alot of bills have me saving up for a month just to get a new radiator. But good job, your 89 turned out incredible.

Re: My IROC-Z Plan

WOW i havn't updated this in a long time!! I got all but one pod filled on the pillar, i went with water and oil temp, and now i'm waiting on a wideband AF guage.

17" IROCs with tires are coming Tuesday, can't wait! When i get the irocs on i'll put on the clear side markers. And install my Dropzones, should look killer. Some tint would look even better on the windows!

Big news is my LSX + t-56 + moser build this winter. .030" over lq4 6.0L with flat tops, l92 heads, got to decide on intake yet. I might go 10:1 or a lil lower on compression, procharger would be kick ***.

I'll try and get pics tuesday when its all waxed up and new rims on.

Re: My IROC-Z Plan

Going from a 305 to an LSX should be quite the improvement there.

Re: My IROC-Z Plan

Yea i think going from ~200 with the lb9 to ~450 na/~550 fi should be a real eye opener lol. If you've seen me work on my car, you'll rest assured i won't scratch it wiht the motor swap.

Re: My IROC-Z Plan

Curious how your undercoating and the paint on your axle is holding up. What kind of prep work did you do and what materials did you use? Gonna put my camaro on jack stands this winter and go through the suspension and steering. Seeing the results of your undercarriage cleanup motivated me to maybe clean mine up too.

That undercoating is still on there with no flaking, and i don't see it flaking off in the future either. use a wire wheel on a angle grinder to get the dirt off before you coat it. I didn't have any rust to deal with so idk what you'd do if it's all rusty.

The axle looks amazing yet! seriously i wish my car was a foot off the ground so people could look at the undercarrige at shows lol.

The powdercoating will damn near last forever too.
