    A real Pace Car, Opinions Welcomed

    MAC and Todd, thanks for the push. Todd this serves as a prelude to your project. As I said last night...let me know if you get in a pinch. The Green Hornet and the car hauler are standing by. I would like to have my little project done by May but will settle for Aug. One thing for sure is...

    John, how are things going buddy. Glad to hear from you. Thanks for the encouragement. Todd is the instigator of all this;). I think some of his "NEED FOR SPEED" attitude has worn off onto me:D. Word has it that you've been looking at C-6s. Nice car and if you get one you will have a...

    A real Pace Car, Opinions Welcomed

    Howdy Zachh. Nice to see a fellow CAC member in the local area. I live about 20 miles South of the Chesapeake line. You've pretty much hit the nail on the head about the swap. I see that you have a '79 and that you once had a single plane intake on the car. So did you end up taking it off? I...

    A real Pace Car, Opinions Welcomed

    Oh boy. so far I have 2 who say leave it alone and one who says go for it. This idea of mine cropped out of the Nov. vette mag. Some guy had a nice '63 that he wanted to drive and have a little fun in. He was worried that the original engine would be trashed. So he did a swap and and put one...

    A real Pace Car, Opinions Welcomed

    You have a "real" Pace Car. Stock L-82 four speeds were used to pace the race that year. I guess I should say I have one of the PC Replicas. L-82 auto. The reason I stated a "REAL PACE CAR" is I think with 425 ponies I can give the Indy drivers some fun:chuckle, wave at the grandstand crowd as...

    A real Pace Car, Opinions Welcomed

    OK guys….I need your thoughts on this plan. For the past 6 months I’ve been pondering the idea of a new engine for the Pace Car (PC) and I think I’ve come up with the solution. I decided to go with the ZZ 383:ohnoes. I’ve discussed my choice many a bunch with Todd and he thinks that the ZZ would...

    Carlisle!

    I met Heavy Duty this year at Carlisle at the CAC tent with Remo, Guy, Janine, and a few others on Sunday. After shooting the breeze for a while, we walked back to our cars, and to my surprise Heavy Duty was parked right next to me and had pulled in at the same time I had. If it had not been for...

    Carlisle!

    Howdy Ghost, glad to hear that you had a good time at Carlisle. Warning, you will be back next year. I was the guy who posted in the SE forum looking for someone to run up with. I did read your reply and want to say thanks. This was my 4th time attending and it was just as fun as the first...

    Ricer

    Remo, you always amaze me with some of the stuff you pop-up with. That is so funny:L. The only thing missing off the ricer is the large number of stickers advertising the goodies they wish they had:chuckle. Yep...not worth wasting gas on. However, on the way to Carlisle last month I did have...

    Borla & Corsa @ Carlisle

    Hey Remo, have the guy put that in writing. Then do the before and after dyno run and post the numbers;). My bet is that they will not put that claim in writing. I have read both those claims in some of the aftermarket sellers such as Ecklers and Mid-America. It is funny to read their fine...

    low power

    The only engine I wash now-a-days is the Cummins in my Dodge. I do agree with you though. With all of the computer geewizz stuff under the hood of these new cars water probably isn't a good idea. I clean mine by mixing up some water and some orange blaster or mean green. Then I use the paper...

    Steering column lock????????

    Make sure that both him and the service manager (SM) look the car over before he leaves it and note any problems, broken, damaged, or missing items. The day I dropped mine off, both the service manager and I looked the car over inside and out. I made them write down any damage (there are 2...

    Steering column lock????????

    After a lot of badgering by both the service manager and the owner of the dealership where I have my Z serviced, I agreed to let them do the recall last fall. Apparently, the 2nd recall came out last year and is suppose to be a fix to the problem. Not just a re-flash of the computer to cut the...

    Sea Foam Review

    Nice car. Just hope no one hits you in the A** end. With the fuel tank sticking out that far sure would make for one hell-of-a-fire. Heck it might even be worse then the Pinto's fire shows:chuckle. :w HD

    You bet I'll be there:beer. This year the Z gets to go. Might even spring for some Borla Stingers:ohnoes. :w HD

    Sea Foam Review

    I hear you. My neighbor across the road was watching as the C3 smoked. Later he asked me if the car had cought fire. Told him no....I was just getting my new Corvette mosquito fogger ready for the season:chuckle. :w HD

    Sea Foam Review

    Hehe....I won't post that one:D. The Viper pilot was really nice;). I'm sure that if he had a later model (his was a '98) it could have gone the other way. That was the encounter I told you about. We stopped and talked a good half-hour. I will say that the Z preformed like a champ. I Love the...

    Sea Foam Review

    Yea...the C3 smoked like a coal stove the first time I did it. If I knew it was going to smoke like that I would have waited a little longer and fogged some pesky flying insects away;LOL. The second time I did used the Sea Foam it didn't smoke anywhere near as bad. The C3 sure sounds a lot...
