Good,I was going crazy not being able to drive it while I was in Florida.I have been driving it for the last 2 days.The driverside rear wheel is clunking pretty bad so I need to buy a rear asap,I am going with 3.23 and will just upgrade to 3.42 gears next winter.I need the master cylinder and prop valve too.I just got a new radio pod so I could mount the deck and my TDS wonderbar arrived while I was gone so that goes in too.Sorry to hear about the t/a.Told ya to buy tires

Changes made.
Talked to Bennie and we're still on track for the 2nd it seems, he's waiting for the dude to install the anchor/strap thangs.
I wouldn't sweat the susp. mods Steve, just get those headers in.
My motor is just being pulled out, so not holding my breath to dyno that day, but I'll be there and my ride will be present on the lift at least, hah.
----------
So you and your mom's 'vette will not be dyno'ing?
Not sure about a late night cruise seeing that it's Sunday and most folks would probably be needing to head home after.
If people want to come the night before and stay the night somewhere, that's an option and we could hang in the eve.

Yeah,I can't find a 3.42 anywhere.I had 1 bought yesterday but after having the guy triple check the ratio it was a 3.23 and I didn't want to pay 450 for it.

i must have missed it, but why is your motor being pulled del?
I've got a lot of stuff going on it and to make the install easier, insure no leakage, Bennie is pulling it and sealing it the right way.
I probably have close to 2K worth of parts going in.
Heads/cam/rockers/timing chain/cover/pushrods/waterpump/full gasket set, oil pan gasket/arp bolts/AFPR/uhh. ..yeah, so there you go.
A lot to be done and it can't be rushed.

Nah, no secret, very mild setup, but all quality parts.
Just a ZZ4 cam, 208/221, new.
The heads are nice though, the new Trickflow Kenny Duttweiler 23* 195cc/64cc CNC-ported.

No real 1/4 predictions yet, but I would expect to drop 1 full second.
The tuning will be key and is what I will focus on when this is done.
It ran really great before so I want to make sure my driveability/smoothness is still there with the newly added power.

Wow, 60, that's way high.
I believe 50 is optimal for most, but every car wants something diff.
Yeah the ZZ4 will give me what I need, an improvement over stock, smooth idle and powerband through 5500.
I'm all about combo matching, not trying to invest all this $ and go slower.

What heads are you running?
You need to put a sig. up man, so we stop askin' ya.
I bought the standard trickflow rec. gasket set.
When I first started racing my GTA I was granny shifting, barely over 4K.
At it's peak I was shifting @ 5000, and that's all it had in her, 14.1 best.
I'll probably end up in the same situation, a 13.1-2 and not enough for 12's

Eric isn't working on it is he?
1. Only Bennie touches my car, period.
2. Eric doesn't work there anymore.
3. Eric didn't work on cars there.
4. Even if he did, wouldn't touch it.
I'm sure I could 'hack' my own car apart and learn something if I didn't have to work for a month and had a decent garage/tools, but I'd rather leave it to the man who will do it right.
but hey if u can pull a 13.1 13.2 on a weds night u can pull a 12. on a weekend

Travis - I would think by 9-10am, I'll see what Bennie thinks to get set up.
I'm not going to assign time slots as of yet, it will be first come first serve since the list isn't hugemongous and people will arrive at diff. times.
valencia1z - The first page is the sign up list, just let me know and I'll add you.
If anyone is going to try to tune or make changes between pulls, you should have your equipment in hand and prepared in the interest of time.
Do we have anymore confirmations for a dyno?
Only 6 days left.
Looks like about 7-8 definites.
I'll dyno my Supra if I have to.
