I finally got the bastards out. I have no idea why it has been giving me so much trouble.

Plus I didn't even break any this time! must not have been trying enough

 

Haha thats good to hear man! Use the hoseclamps?

I gotta say i had a hell if a time reinstalling mine with the zzp orings, basically, lubed them up with coolant then had to force em in by tightening down the endplate. Lets hope for no leaks this season! :X

 

I was using hose clamps the whole time. That's how I broke the first ones, hose clamp kept slipping so I kept tightening and crushed them.

Why you gotta tell me that the zzp are a bitch to put in?!?! I ever expected a dual pass install to give me so much grief

 

it was easy for me

 

Rice, you still need an axle jackshaft?

 

Yes i do. Got a lead?

Thanks dude i got it from him!

 

Now you have no more excuses hahaha

 

Oh its coming together all right. Its coming together like queers in a circlejerk.

Got the trans mounts all on today and im doing something fun with my foglights

 

Velocity stack intakes. One for each blower!

 

Damn straight! Lmao

 

I just started to add up the cost of my parts pile. I stopped pretty fast. Haha and that isn't even close to all the stuff I have altogether spread between the garages. Then I started thinking about all the stuff I still need... ugh

 

Just sell it and get a shitstaing slowbra

 

I'm in too deep. I need that 400whp tvs car lol. Debating if running a 2.6 with the ATI is a good idea lol.

What are the Gen 2 blocks good for? 450ish. Lnfs are Gen 2, right?

 

Im debating the same thing i got a 2.6 for the tvs and in already on the ati. Can you say shes a screamer? Lol

 

Yes an LNF is Gen 2. You can't really put a solid cap on a block and say it is good for xxx hp. There's so many variables that play into it. A friend of mine has a 480whp SS/TC, stock motor. Has beat the **** out of it for years and it still keeps ticking.

 

 

Is this car driving yet?

I am about to be on my second clutch setup in the time your car has been down..

 

Lmao. Nope still up in the air.

Need axles, my intermediate shaft and a new uego afr gauge. Then ill be tearin up the streets again

 

Lol.

 

Lol Cody's car has been through so much over the years, and it just keeps kicking ass He never posts on here anymore!

 

I'm just hoping I'm making a sound choice keeping the stock block for the 380-450 whp range on blower. My crank is only good to 500ish, so I feel like if I were to upgrade to a girdled or sleeved block, the crank becomes an issue at about the same power level.

 

Didn't zzp run that crank on the 800 HP proof of product tests?

 

I have a cast 2.2 crank. lsj and lnf cranks are forged
