The motor looks good. That is some pretty serious compression though! I know that you can get by with some pretty high compression ratios with the reverse flow cooling but wow. Is this a daily driver and I take it that you will mostly be running a high octane?

 

oh yeah vp 111 or higher only and i drive it aslong as the streets are dry

 

WOW looks really nice, what kind of headers are you useing ?

 

those are the ceramic coated bbk's

 

Did I mention your crazy.... lol

Hows it going.... I stopped out to your buddies the other day at platinum and had a few words with him... he wasnt very helpfull tho and was kinda arrogant he kept trying to sell me a damn complete motor that I dont need. His Z was prettty impressive tho especially the converted Brodix heads

yeah eric got me into this in the first place he gets all alpha male sometimes but is a good guy underneath. Did he show you his n20 system and the kevlar trans blanket lol
I have to stop up there also to see how far along he is. Is it orange yet?


What was he not helpful with?

 

Yah he gave me a once over through his car which was pretty impressive. That NO2 system was crazy all and all tho thats a hell of a nice motor. He didnt mention the Kevlar trans blanket, thats a little excessive tho lol...

I was just looking to find a pile of miscellaneous stuff like door hinges, wireing harness and PCM, front engine accessories brackets, pulleys, other miscellanneous engine bay stuff etc. I dunno it just felt like he was giving me the brush off cuz i wasnt there to deal in big money stuff.

sweet looking motor, hope you don't blow anything up at that compression though.

 

no i paid a pretty penny for this one. all forged balenced to 10k rpm (in case any f up's) lets just say i could have bought a new c6 for what i have into my ta. And i did'nt metion the 300 hp maf kit that will be on it mid summer ( i want to get the na tune and some miles on her before i shoot the dope)
