na I don't think the condo property manager will apreciate that too much. How ever it was brought to my attention pearls hobby shop is 7 days a week. I wish I would have remembered that some on here told me that. I'm off tomorrow and my cars sitting at hick's hobby shop. Can't touch it till Thursday. So wed. I have to pay for it staying in the shop all alone. I think the header and exhaust will be done Thursday.
I was thinking about wrapping the headers and test pipes. That will be at least somewhat productive for me wen. working towards my car. It's not pretty; but hey, If you don't like you can pi$$-off.
It'll keep temps down.
Side note: Does any one know where I can get a stainless bung welded to my test pipe?

I accualy like using motorcycle jacks better than purpose built tranny jacks. They'v got the 2 runners that craddels the tranny and easierto manuver. I would have been done yesterday if there wasnt a hang up in the removal. I started trying to pull the trans yesterday at 11 am.
When I got there this morning it only took an hour to remove and put in clutch. after that I took my time. Seeing at that point I was covered, chin to knees with tranny oil.

turn of events
I' ve gotten some good offers on Greedy and PE twins, So I may be entertaining the Idea of selling the procharger kit new and get me a set of twins. If I get the kit sold soon I will throw in the Alphawerks headers if purchased before Thursday.
Yeah I know sound fickel but I'm looking at the ball park I want to be in a year from now, and after talking with procharger pesonaly they even said I can't get to my ball park (550+) with thier products.
Nothing they offer for the z will get it even close.
The frusterating thing is the people I worked with to get the procharger said nothing of this.
It's not a bad product its just trying to use a fly swatter to hammer a rail spike. You just won't get the job done.
So if you've been following I havn't even recieved it yet so its new. The quicker its bought the Cheaper I'll let it go for. The sooner I can sell it the quicker I can get back on track. I'm willing to take a little hit on this.
I F-N HATE BACK TRACKING!!!!
Get the word out, I need this gone now!

Good news on the home front
Pending on a reply, I may have got in touch with my guy with a little time to spare. He's gonna contact procharger and cancel my order. So Looking at the greedy twins right now getting the FMIC kit - fuel system and e manage. Yeah made me a little happier when I got the email.
EDIT: So yeah if this comes up, I'll have a set of Alphawerks headers for sell brand spankin new

Defi boost, AEM AF. Defi Fuel pressure, Defi- EGTX2 on the way. Gonna get a boost controller, turbo timer, and if the kit don't have it; BOV's. More f-n money going out tha drive shaft. But who cares, it just equals miles of smiles. REALY expensive ones.

The whole assembley is 16 pounds less the weight. Weighed old and new assymblies.
So today I threw on the exhaust. Aligned it as best as I could. My passanger side test pipe is still getting a bung welded on should be done tomorrow. Gonna run the Wide band O2 and start setting up the guages. while I'm at it gonna set up the boost sending unit and run that too.
Im setting up the pics so they will fit here.

Since I didn't have passanger test pipe when I was aligning the exhaust; I had to afix the pipes in the location they would be in with the test pipes installed. Worked out pretty whell.

So I was saying before about racing in my past. Hell I would say its in my blood.
EDIT I f-n hate the place ment of the buttons, I'm always hitting the send instead of the attachments.
Well here is my '73 Camero LT-1 I built. Had a blown LT-1 350 Blown with nitrous. arround 700. 10 sec. car First pic is the original color, second is after I gave it to my dad when he had to sell his race truck. He's the one smokin the tires.
Built that when I was 19. Chevy V8 are sooo easy. just slap it together, check compression, add lots of fuel and air, replace rearend. Stop and repeat. The Z is a totaly diffrent beast. I'm taking my time on the instal learning what I can when I get the opprotunity too.

Just got a call from sh@rif at forged internals, they just mailed out my RC 650cc injectors, clips and sport harness. So next week I will be getting those. Probably at the end of the week I'm oredering the return fuel system. I don't know if I should go with CJM or AAM
