I’ll probably just use Mobile 1 and swap it out after short 3-500 mile break in.

I could use break in oil buy apparently new motors don’t need it???

Opinions??

I've read of guys using break-in oil for 500 miles, others for 1,000 miles. And others use their regular oil. What ever mileage they use. Afterwards they switch to their normal oil. The break-in oil has some chemicals in it that regular oil doesn't have.

I’m all back together and the third time must have been a charm because she sounds great.

I put my z1 HFCs in today emissions and registration tomorrow!!!

I have about 3-500 miles of break in to do then I’ll put her up on the dyno and post some results.

I have high hopes for those C2 JWT cams.

Congratulations!!! I am excited for you and hoping for the best results for the fruits of your labor!

Fingers, toes and eyes crossed for good luck.

Glad she sounds good this time around.

I have been patiently waiting for mine. This has to be the most brutal wait I have ever had to deal with.

She sounds awesome and seems to be running strong. It’s hard keeping to half throttle for break in!!!!

Colorado emissions is confusing last year they put me on the dyno and passed me with HFC cats on, so I popped them on and went down. This time they did an OBD2 test and failed me for an inactive o2 sensor.

Wha??!?

So now I have to retune (and re-activate my sensors) , then get an appointment at the state testing facility. PITA.

Oh well I needed a post break in retune anyhow due to “NEW” new JWT (C2) cams so I guess it’s no biggie.

Confusing and frustrating. Where I'm at. I'm glad I don't have emissions. But if I lived across the river. Then I would have.

Same here AZ as long as you don't live in the two big counties no emissions required. Straight pipes for the win! LOL

We’re back.

Here is a JWT c1-C2 cam comparison:

Blue is c1 cams with f’ed up block
Red is C2 cams with non rattlecan pistons

... and long tube CAI, Z1 400 hp kit(ceramic coated) etc. see build log above for specifics!

331.7 rhp
268 torque

Great street power band!!

Tune is Uprev with 7500 throttle cut rev limit.

Rusty · 08-20-2018, 07:26 PM

I'm making that at 1,000 ft. Wonder what your's would make at the same level?

SurfDog · 08-20-2018, 07:41 PM

I think it’s altitude adjudged? If not I’d estimate 15-20 hp.
