I have snypers old turbo kit currently down waiting on turbo goodies that I ordered a month ago. Went with a 7675 CEA with. 1.27 ported to a 1.31. CJM twin pump injector dynamic 2000cc inj for e85 and turbo smart boost controller, bov and waste gates. Also have to fab up a passenger side mount because the huge 4 inch down pipe runs through where the mount is. But I'm not a Z so I guess I don't count for updates lol
Make sure you watch your oil with E85. Blowby can put ethonal in your oil which can also attract moisture.
I had problems when I ran E85 as I couldn't keep my motor at temp (you could touch the headers). The turbo should resolve that in your case.

Cass is still enjoying his car I'm assuming.
im gonna get the car started and see if i need this piece. granted it was a b1tch to take out the shifter with the motor and trans installed, but ill give it a shot, and if i have problems, off to you it goes lol
i want another ride with this setup lol. lmk when youre free i wanna swing down and see it soon
oh my jesus. you on stock trans still logan?
glad you started after me, and finished a year before me lmao. you didnt have any shifter issues right?
bbs350z's car is still sitting waiting to be started and tuned. Snyper is most likely going to sell his car. Royal T is almost done but is being smart and taking his time to make is right given its a racecar and the full package. Cass is still enjoying his car I'm assuming. QTB and Vas are still in process. 04.350z*has to repair his motor.

I moved it to this section to keep all the swap threads together.
You are correct sir!! Still need to swap out the compressor to the new unit I bought to have AC functional, but want to drive the car till its too cold and then have the work done. I'm also trolling for an LSA if one comes around, but that may not be for a while yet. Couldn't be happier about my swap decision and its such a weird feeling to have the car running this time of year that I don't know how to handle it.

No I have a built tick performance t56 that can handle 800 ft lbs.
Quamen I'm only going to be running 93 most of the time and be able to swap to a e85 map at the track. I have one of the best LS tuners in the south east here at speed south. We just finished a 2012 camaro SS that's dr 960 hp on e85 and 13 psi, and are doing a photo shoot for a c6 race vette we built for a customer. I am just getting impatient waiting on my turbo an twin pump to get to me.
My z lives again started it last night just need to assemble everything.
As far as installing and removing the shifter it can be quite simple.
Take a floor jack and install it under the tail sshaft.
Remove the trans mount
Lower the trans so it tilts till the engine mounts catch
Buy a 1/4 ratchet and a stubby Allen bit socket 6mm
And remove

When I had my Sikky shift that's what I did. Later I drilled holes and had grommets for them in the trans tunnel behind the radio to access them with out dropping the trans. Only did that when I was having to take my shifter in and out to send back to Sikky.
