Still need a surge tank, return lines and an upgraded pump. Moving along slowly as I'm broke....lol!

Why does your outlet pipe on the compressor side have a flat spot in it?

O&G 02-20-2013 05:28 PM

Not sure, I know that's not being used with the new setup as everything is being V-banded and that elbow won't be needed. It didn't look like that before it was shipped to Comp.

Seat Rails & Turbo up close
 
Seat rails showed up. I've been out of town for work a lot lately so no Z love. I'm trying to make time to get the seats in before these damn pistons & bearings arrive and we pull the motor. Currently saving $$$$ for the upgraded fuel return system, welding supplies, v-bands and a bit of schedule 10 piping in various sizes. Slowly moving along....

Got to work on the Z today....seats are in. Left the plastics on for now. Still waiting on my coated bearings from GTM and the Arias pistons. As soon as they're in the motor is getting pulled and built, then fab work....roll bar and hot side piping. After that misc crap....fuel, safety, etc... But.....in the mean time.... we found a train horn on my new truck so we're hooking it up and causing some trouble :) lol....keep yall posted on the build.

No sir...opted for no recline and I set them up w/ a bit of angle leaning back. These seats were ordered by someone else and then they backed out. I got both seats w/ rails for $1100.00.....killer deal, had to jump on it!

Nice pick-up than! I've been wanting seats for a long time. Hard to commit to a set without sitting in them.

Well, 2 months and a week later the HP coated rod & main bearings showed up from GTM :/ ....pistons were here a few weeks ago but I've been swamped with life. I'll be at the shop tomorrow to determine when we start ripping the motor out. I bet if I bring some beer and grill up some fajitas I can persuade the shop to stay late :stirthepot:. regardless the ball is rolling again.

On another note I will have some mint 40th Rays rims for sale soon, going for a 18x10 or 10.5 square setup w/ some beef! I'll post a thread when I get there.
