I am bored here at work, so how bout' posting some motor pics of what your runnin' or renchin' on?


I like to see what wire looms etc. people are using. I just installed some proform polished valve covers on mine!

don't know what it IS but I can tell you what it WAS.

balanced 355, hi-po cam(unknown), ported stock head(unknown), 3 angle valve job. all this was done when the motor went in.

accel super coil(incap), accel 8.8 wires, hypertech stage 2 thermo chip, 180 t-stat, ford db9 injectors(pink 22lb), MSD 6A, TPIS airfoil(gone), K&N's, cut air box, ducts behind fog lights(now only for the track)

maybe some other stuff that I can't remember

Is that tape on your coolant hose to the manifold?

are those stock runners on that 355?

not tape its that sticker that cames on the hose when you buy it, it was new in august but sence them I only put about 1000 miles on it if that

yup!!! stock runners a 355 is nothing special a "glorified 350" the motor was nothing radical but it did pull to 5500rpm when it ran good

Where's the pics of yours David?
I need to see this great investment.
Here's mine, not a great pic, but you get the idear.
(edit - see below)

you and your 2hrs of custom fit wires those are nice


ill get mine up in a few right now i feel lazy...

Don't forget the "Made-For-You" matching wire looms.



What can I say, I know what I like.
Well worth the time and $.

i love the centerbolt looms, especially when they look like this



*edit* sorry i have no recent pics of my engine bay, ill have terrel take some tonight. final shots of the TPI.

Here's my new engine! Yes the engine bay needs cleaning up but I don't know how to do it (sorry I'm a girl without manly wiring know-how!)....once it's done being painted I'll find someone and pay them to hide all the wiring for me......

Put my old engine back in my car.....

where did you get that lid to your super ram i like it

i have a super ram in my garage im waiting to put on in a week or two

Here's mine...yeah it needs a *TON* of cleaning...but repairs first, looks later :P

The lid is the Accel billet lid..they are pricey, I think it was about 190.00 or so, but it looks world's better in my opinion. I bought it though Rich Jensen at Cruzin Performance many years back.

Sweet pics guys, I will take one of my engine bay this weekend and post it later. Del, I like the clean look of yours, someday I will put the time and money and make mine look like that.

here's my Stock 305 tpi WOOT!

Robby - Yours looks really clean.
Are those the factory valve covers?

Thanks Will, but mine is actually pretty dirty at the moment.
It was really clean last year, I'll get under there this next month and shine her up.
(Taken a few mins ago)

Here yah go.

Auggie

I agree looks very clean

Del, those are factory valve covers mine used to look like that until the dumbass at the shop painted them black, they painted everything black even the timing mark/pointer

Dang, wonder if my covers will clean up that nice.
Maybe I'll give it a shot if they come off soon.
I need to clean up the plenum, runners too.

Hey thanks for the compliments guys. I have been trying to get the engine compartment looking as best that I can. I was thinking getting some new black wire loom for directing some stray wires might be a good idea to help clean it up a bit. I did so with my amplifier wire,fan relay wires, and it helped it alot. Anyone recommend a good brand for cleaning up hard to get off grease stuff that's safe to use?

^most of those citrus based cleaners are pretty damn good at ripping grease and oil off and they don't hurt nothin.

Smells great too, lol.

Nothing special done to it, I am fond of the stock look.

I just took these...

lt4 cam install gone weird.

Robby, looks very clean, and those valve covers do look sweet. My new crate motor looks nothing like that, it has those black valve covers and they look like s*h*i*t, can't wait to change them out someday.

David, the resolution of your pic is off, it's blury and out of focus, looks nice and clean from what I can see though.

woo irocdaddy you got the lt4 cam? thats my next mod, are you gonna tune it or use stock ecm?

All right...

I know my pic here sucks. They are saved from my camara to computer too big.


I got a program that shrinks em', but they don't have resolution.

outtatime, in detail, how do I cut and paste the pic to a empty what? to get er done?

Hi TraviZ-


I already have a chip from tpis from 99' that is in the car. It was made for the zz4, but will have to be redone for sure.

send the pics to my email and il post them for you. sojourn@zerotactic.net

Heres my motor...

Sweet lookin motor there David. Ever had it at the track, what kind of times can she do?

11's I bet.

11.390 1/4
117 MPH
1.646 60'

On slicks of course!!!

Very nice.. ever had it dynoed?? *HINT HINT*!

*senses an award for high dyno*

No i wish i had it dyno'd. The car is all around amazing, stops on a dime, handles like not other. Showing those fools in there STI WRX that an american car from the 80's can smoke them in the twisties with minimum modifications!!! I dont even have sub-frame connectors yet!!! I have no estimates on the power output cause i'll probably guess wrong but all i know is its not even tuned yet! Wait till i get alchohol injection and then i can really turn the boost up!

David

...

Heres my custom door panels...

Wow David, that car is fast. Pics look awesome, your car is beautiful. Hope mine looks like that someday. Get that car tuned and dynoed, would love to see what numbers she comes up with.

Yeah it looks great!

we're having a dyno day in 2 weeks and is in your neighborhood

68RallySport - What else did you modify on the car, visually speaking?
I notice you changed the hood too.
How many miles are on it?
At least over 400rwhp with that trap speed.

heres my car in urbans shop


heres the filthy interior with misc parts laying around

Shoot man that thing looks good!

that was in october the interior has been cleaned up since

412 (4.155" bore 3.8" stroke)
afr 220s
solid roller
264/267 @.050 .672/.672 lift w/ 1.6 rr
super vic intake
11.25 : 1 compression

For some reason i cant load as big of pics as you guys are posting???

Visaully the car has the hood and the rims have been chromed, some other stupid chrome like strut towers, hood struts, piece on the nose where the hood latch closes has been chromed. I would prefer the stock hood however then i couldnt have my gauges set up under there plus i dont feel safe with a fuel preasure gauge in the interior. But i bought the car with that hood and i do not have the original...

Dyno day count me in!!!!

David
