    TAC - just wanted to say...

    Thanks all...had a great day. I stayed home from work and did home improvement stuff. Man I am getting tired of rain! No, Surf...no Wonderbar upgrades for me. Or those heads. :) Since we're not moving to a house with a bigger garage we get to spend our money on making this house better.

    85 Normal Operating Temp?

    Sounds about right for stock. My '87 would consistently run those temps or higher...with the fan set to come on around 230. I had a switch put on that triggers the fan at 190. Just drove it last week and with temp of 50 outside the car ran right around 190, with the fans on when I pulled in the...

    Aerobody Friendly Hydraulic Jack

    :eyerole Whatever... I hear that kind of stuff at the ZR-1 forum in CF. Never thought I would have to take it here too...

    Aerobody Friendly Hydraulic Jack

    Ummmm....check my sig. FWIW, I love the Z as much as my TT. 2 completely different rides and each has its own strengths. And my wife was instrumental in getting both. :beer

    Ramps/lift z06 oil change

    Forget about doing it properly with ramps. For some reason best left to the design gods GM put the oil pan bolt at the front of the oil pan. If you use ramps you are tilting the car so oil will pool at the back of the pan and you won't get it all out. ****es me off. Everyone else puts the bolt...

    Who insures your ZR-1 ?

    Cost to r&r clutch master & slave

    FYI...all-in price for OEM parts for me was $315 from gmpartsdirect.com. This was for slave and master cylinder--couldn't find a replacement hose. Haven't put them in yet. I think they sell rebuild kits too. The same parts from GM are almost $500.

    "The TT driver finally got to see what the rear end of a ZR-1 looks like!" :) :)

    ZO6 Oil Consumption

    "Changes in driving style that reduce the amount of time spent at higher RPMs will also positively affect oil consumption." :L :L That's an official GM way to say "Take your foot off the gas to get less oil consumption". I had a problem with overboost when a wastegate had failed once and I...

    What were your "pre-Callaway" turbo experiences?

    '87 Subaru Turbo Rx. Pretty fun and held up well for 10 years.

    Tires, directional or not?

    Sorry...don't have any info on injector servicing. Try calling Blood Enterprises in Auburn and see if they have a recommendation. They did some dyno tuning for me. Don't have the phone # but should be easy for you to track down.

    Is there any way to tell when the Sledgehammer will actually hit the podium? I would love to watch the action.

    Tires, directional or not?

    Consider Firestone Firehawks. Probably more expensive than most but have excellent water handling. They seem to be quiter than my old GSCs too.

    {Callaway} Up & Close - Megaphones

    As Tony would say, "Theyyyyrrrrrre Great!" :D :D At really low RPMs I think the car sounds like a motor boat but from 2400 and up they really sound good. My buddy with a ZR-1 drove it the other day and said the sound was simply intoxicating. I won't say what else he said so I don't start any...

    {Cash $ or a Z06} Would you trade your Callaway?

    I like the idea of buying a Z06 to COMPLEMENT the Callaway--oh wait, that's what I did! :) :)
