here is a nice clean picture of my new engine setup. not completed but pretty close.

 

...

 

Very Nice! :hail:

I like how it's pretty much just the engine you see, no A/C, no emissions, just clean and simple

EDIT: what do you have left to do to it?

 

Wow, that is very clean.

Where did you get those things that go on the wheel wells?

They look a cap of some sort for your suspension, and stock they are usually pieces of plastic. Have no idea what they are called.

But yours are bad *** and chrome, how much they cost you? And what are they called?

 

Lookin nice, what are the specs on the new engine??

*cough* New Pics of entire car *cough*

 

typical 383 with aluminum parts setup for power adders and we'll leave it at that for now.

as far as the specs, it's faster then an 02' z06 without the 300 shot of nitrous. not that i would use the nitrous anyway since the drivetrain has less then 1,000 miles on her.

the strut tower braces are made by hunter motorsports. he use to frequent the suspension forum quite often although he got alot of slack because he wasn't a sponsor so i haven't heard from him in quite some time. they are actually polished aluminum not chrome and as far as price......well they aren't cheap.


as for other pictures i would be happy to post some new ones but the site doesn't seem to shine to kindly on that sort of thing.

:lala:

 

Why not upload them to your car domain site and then link them to here???

 

i plan too....there are already a few on page 2. however i'm going to redo the whole site over the weekend with all new updates.

 

here is one quick picture of the side...

 

Any 1/4 times?

 

I thought you got new rims?

 

:hail: very sweet looking.

wait a minute i see a spec of dirt its crap now. j/k

 

Looks great! Lets see some more of the car!:hail:

 

Nice where did u get that cold air intake. I like how u located the MAT sensor on it also.

 

no 1/4 times that are usefull....look at the wheels on the car. 3.0 60 ft. yeah right....


once i can get a second set of wheels to race on i'll have some times.

as far as the z06 wheels, yes i sold them however i have them right now on loan because my billet wheels aren't built yet.

 

Which wheels did you end up chosing?

 

Wow....that deffinatly looks nicer then when i saw it in feburary....


very nice man that is beautiful...really is...the pictures i had came out liek ****... lighting at cobo sucked, but great job Kandied....

 

VERY nice ..i want to see pics when its complete

 

thanks guys!

yeah cobo lighting is terrible for that sort of thing. as far as finished pics. i don't think it will ever be finished but i'm working on a custom fiberglass interior and two more power adders for the engine so hopefully i'll have some exciting things to look at soon enough. thanks again for the kind words.

 

I noticed your alternator is on the right side of the engine there, instead of the left where I usually see them. Is there a minimum distance you're supposed to keep it from the battery? Just thought of that looking at your engine.

 

it's on that side because of the way everything is setup. it's actually a v6 style alternator that i had the internals custom built for my needs using a march pulley and bracket setup for sbc.

 

very very nice engine, very clean

 

i check in every week or so and your car is 10x more kick *** everytime

:hail: :hail:

 

thanks guys.....i try to add one major element every month and at least one little one every week.

 

looks great man, got any plans on putting some colour to your wires?

 

Looks very good!

 

Where did you get that metal intake tube from?

 

Just a note, the '86 T.A. alternator is on that side already. You can put the power source (alternator) just about anywhere, just increase the size of the wire the farther you go from the battery to maintain load demands.

BTW, bitchin swap Kandied!!!

 

"colour" to the wires? do you mean like colored wire loom? if so no....i want it to be a very clean looking bay. as i speak i'm working on hiding all the wires i can so that you won't see hardly any.

as far as the cai. it's made out of the same stuff my 4" exhaust is. just bent to fit the needs and ceramic coated much like a header and the rest of the brackets you see.

 

Hey Kandied91z, first of all i want to say wow nice car dude, came out real nice. Well i was flipping through some pics in the site u left to checkout ur engine "cardomain" i think i was. Your car in two of the pictures had some Weld pro star wheels on it. can u tell me what size rims and tires u had on that day. rear look like u had 15x10 if im not mistaking. well hope u can give me some info, bc i like the way they looked. well cay..

 

good eye.

 

so they were 15x10 cool, what size tire did u have if u dont mind me asking.?

 

that i couldn't tell you....it was along time ago. i will try to get the info and let you know over the weekend.

 

hey man thanks, i really appreciate it. i like the way that car sat with those wheels and tires and how they tucked in. Well chat with ya laters cya.

 

first of all man, im sorry for going off topic and all but ur engine did come out bad looking :hail: Ayways, maybe you can just help me. What size tire do u think i can fit in the rear of my 91z with a 15x10 pro star wheel. whats the biggest i can fit under there but still tuck under the rear lip. if you can help me answer that it would be great. well thnx and hope u can help.

 

Hey Jeff did u ever get it on a dyno yet? What kind of numbers? ooops I know you'll never tell Hey lets see some pics of the wheels you're going with :lala:

 

come on now mike, you should know what it ran.

 

It hasn't been the topic of conversation so I didn't know if you dyno'd it or not.

 

probably for good reason.
