Im not yet familiar with the Z heads/Vvel yet but if you're going to do cams you might as well do head work. Working the flow of the heads is the secret to hp on na engines. Im surprised this isnt discussed more often in this forum. I know people have mentioned that the vvel tuning hasnt been cracked yet. I do not understand why this isnt a priority for the shops with the resources. Ive head work done on most of my cars including those with forced induction and its a night and day difference. Some Ive sourced out and some work I did myself.

Did you do headwork on the 370 though? by all accounts, the 350 and 370 heads are already there.

How do you know they're already there? Did you do any bench flow comparisons? Ive never seen any flow charts for the Z heads. All I see is a lot of he said/she said. Its something to look into. Unless a shop has done these test I dont just take anyones word for it.

MaDMaXX 04-21-2012 12:54 PM

"...by all accounts"

I'm pretty certain i've seen Motordyne flow testing the heads and finding nothing.

smokejr 04-21-2012 05:24 PM

Did Motordyne do a before and after test ?? or is this a visual verification ??

MaDMaXX 04-22-2012 12:10 AM

It was flowbenched.

Can you do even do head work on the VVEL valves without screwing up the calibration? I haven't heard of anyone messing with it yet...

I was talking to the owner at track forged in Oregon about my winter build (mentioned the JUN exhaust cams to him) and he mentioned porting the heads and that they make a huge difference which I understand. He didn't mention anything about the VVEL having an issue but we both were "brainstorming" about the idea of how the VVEL motors would react to it. Hopefully someone does it before me so if it goes bad I can back out of the idea but if they don't then I will be the first :/ oh well, someone has to find out eventually.

No news...?

Baer383 05-26-2012 07:43 PM

I just died waiting for this thread to go somewhere.

My funeral will be held after the holiday weekend,don't cry for me I will ask GOD where the camshafts are and try to get that info back to the forum.

Valentino 05-26-2012 07:51 PM

First scenario: Zuperman went to pickup his car, and found out that the mechanic did a terrible job and his heads are leaking oil and engine won't start. Zuperman takes a tourq wrench and bashes the mechanic with it. Zuperman is in jail and can't reply.

Second scenario:Zuperman test drove the car. got so excited with the new power level he just added with those cams, the car drifts, and smashes two other cars. He still ended up in jail and can't reply.

Third and final scenario: Zuperman is in jail and can't reply

Just kidding... :rofl2:

Where are you Zuperman??? we want some result's. and "PLEASE... STAY SAFE" :tup:

red6spd 05-26-2012 07:56 PM

:roflpuke2:

now we have to wait 30 or 40 years to get his reply. till scientists invent the internet :icon17:

Come on guys thats enough. Zuperman "PLEASE STAY SAFE" :rofl2:

ZKraken22 05-28-2012 10:57 AM

He is doing some other stuff to his car. he just dropped a good amount on exterior stuff. so maybe he needs to save money for the labor or he just doesnt trust anyone to do the labor.

7419sundat 06-11-2012 04:37 PM

So he just wasted money on the cams to not install them?

biggestsack 06-11-2012 07:09 PM

A similar feeling to leaving the strip club alone.
I'm hard and unsatisfied :thumbsdown:

Come back to us Zuper. We NEEEEEED you.

DarkJak 06-11-2012 10:14 PM

That sucks to hear. I was also really interested in how these would turn out :(

KaienZ34 06-11-2012 10:20 PM

Just give the man some time. He hasn't said he's not installing them.

Agreed, I know we aren't all the best at patience but I had my exhaust sitting for 2 months before I coyld find a shop willing to mess with it, cams are a whole different ballpark...patience grasshoppers...

red6spd 06-12-2012 09:04 AM

Maybe he had it done and it added like 90hp and he does not want to tells us so he can have the fastest NA 370Z around.

Bastard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

zuperman 370 06-12-2012 09:09 AM

loooooool @ red6speed, soory guys for the hold up, like many of you have already speculated, i am having a really hard time finding someone to get these installed over here, it was kinda stupid of me to order these and not keeping that in account, trust me i am anxious to get these installed more than you guys but dont wanna risk messing around with this mod when i feel that the guy who is going to install these is not capable, again guys i am sorry for keeping you waiting on this mod believe me if i had a capable shop to install them id already have them installed yesterday will keep you guys posted with any developments.

KaienZ34 06-12-2012 09:23 AM

Thank you my good man. :tiphat:

370Z Purist 06-12-2012 12:48 PM

Trying to find a shop in Bahrain is probably like trying to find someone you met the night before on the craigslist missed connections page...

Maybe an eager technician in the US will fly out to your place just to install them for you!

corbin09 06-12-2012 01:06 PM

want to sell them? lol lets just move this project on to someone in the states!
