Thanks! I'm really liking how everything is coming together. Its pretty close to what we had initially planned. I would def like to see some other boosted Zs its a shame they are kinda rare. Once mine is road tested and I know its stable I should be making some road trips with it so you never know.

Not anytime soon...I'm still crying from my 2 engine rebuilds. I should be happy with my heads/cam car though once it's tuned. :tiphat:

LOL I cant say I blame you. I would be a little hesitant myself. I just know they are even more beastly when boosted. My buddy has a 1100whp, its kinda ridiculous.lol

Take it with a grain of salt. But the welds could be a little better.

Lol the welder(of the aluminum) told me this. They don't have a liquid cooled machine, as it got hot the quality degraded. Most are fine (looking) though.

As for the MIG welds, yeah, they aren't pretty, but they have good penetration. I wish I had a TIG, but I don't have any money for that right now.

I know right!

Should hopefully have a drivable car this week. Only issue now is that racerwholesale sent me the wrong fittings for the oil cooler. Threads don't match up :/ waiting to hear back on a replacement.

One of the first starts. Base tune nothing special just enough to get it running.
