Drove to my parents house and going out again to the grocery store... Snows in the forecast for tomorrow gotta take it out while the weather is good.

 

Ran some errands with my 03 DB Touring with driver window down. Glad it wasn't raining. Waiting on my window motor.

 

Your car is the Pagani of all 350zs with all the details you put into it.

 

filed my piston rings down
installed injectors and fuel pump
installed forged pistons & rods In block
installed new oem water pump,
new rev up oil pump
arp head and main bolts
painted valve covers wrinkle red
painted front timing cover & plenum black metallic






I finally got my engine out.

have to extend my entire project out another month. final things is put my new engine and tranny in with twin turbos and do reconnect the wiring harness and tune the car.

 

Your chain rigging skillz... Big brass ones... Why would you have a link in the hook? And your chain is kinked you cray cray

 

chain is good for 2900 lbs got it at home depot.

engine + tranny weight = ~600 lbs....???

color I am looking for my engine bay is simple stainless steel hoses and generally black hoses with a bit of red valve covers tossed in their want it to look similar to the Ferrari or Maserati engine look. give it some character looks like an animals heart......then give it some crazy rich tune for huge backfire flames on 2 step

I attached a sample photo of a 350z engine from google except mines is wrinkled with red and the front timing cover is black.......







I might paint my all my turbo piping with wrinkle black....but too lazy....

 

I would be scared to wheel your picker away from the car with the chain link right on the top of that hook. Doesn't matter what the chain or hook is rated at, if it slipped off the top of the hook its going down... Also the hooks rating is taken at the meaty center section of the hook. The tip isnt rated for anything because its not designed to hold weight...

But hey it worked out fine so all good. Just trying to prevent a disaster in the future.. Like when your freshly rebuilt motor goes back in... Get the chain into the hook.

 

maybe he isn't committed to going all the way in, just the tip



bwaaaaaaaaahahahahah

 

Spark plugs, new covers, intakes, and headlights

How much for covers?
Why did they need replaced?

 

Oil in the spark plugs. They are not replaceable, the gaskets.


So $420 to change a $3 gasket. Smh

 

Damn sorry to hear.

 

Isn't there an aftermarket company that sells the seals for the cam covers? I know I've seen a thread about it.

389.00 for both from this site, though. Probably same price once shipping is added.

 

No, that's not what I'm talking about. It wasn't one of the big vendors selling oem parts.

 

Felpro does

Got a 8 inch tablet a few months ago so decided to try and replace the 7 inch tablet I had in my car. Not anywhere close to professional work but it turned out ok.

 

Looks pretty damn nice. I'd do that over that Braniac thing any day.

 

Wow. Now you guys tell me about the $6 fix
