Thumbs up The white Z Is ALIVE!!!!!!!!!

well, after a little tweeking and fine tuning, and wiring ect ect ect, finished up a few things, and fired up the white z!!!!
she wont idle at all because i fired it up on a stock tune, but it ran for about 3 minits, then i changed the oil/filter.
so she is alive, and everything seems to be pretty good.
just got the tranny in, and have to button a few things up, then finish up the wiring for the n2o, other then that, its pretty much ready.

looks like i might make the c vs f shootout next week. i hope.

well, no vid, no sound clip, no nothing. lol

my camera man is on a cruz, he eft today, so no new pics till he gets home

vinny, 8's, id like to go 8.9 or faster, not the first pass, buteventualy.




ran into a snag tho, fired the car up again with the tranny all in, let it run for a few minits, then right when i shut itdown, i herd sizzle sizzle sizzle, got out, saw a drip of oil about 1" around, said, hmm, dip stick

lifted the car, and yup, the locar dip stick poped out, looked at it, and it broke off
the last 1" wasnt on it

i dont think anything went into the motor, i think it is stil in the hoe, but i cant get it out, so i have to drop the pan and see if it is in the pan r the hole stil, only problem is, looks to me the ony way to get the pan off is totake the fly wheel off and that means pull the tranny
oh well, something to do tommorow now.

i drained the oil, it looks fine, and it was like 1/2 a second befor i shut the motor off befor it poped out, so im 99% sure nothing got into the motor, but im going to drop it tommorow and check it out.
i'll let everyone know then.

just my luck tho. but man, she sounds heathy!!
