hello everyone! just wanted to introduce myself. i have a 98 Z28 with an engine swap, pace headers, t-rex cam, intake, off-road Y-pipe (no cats). i love this site and i can't wait to meet all of u.

 

Very nice stuff! Did you grenade the last motor that was in your car?


anyways welcome to the site!

Welcome! have you run the car yet? What kinda times have you made?

 

The rod bearings in the last motor went bad. i havent' run it at the track yet cuz the motor only has about 3000 miles on it, but i'm sure it will kick some serious ***. i'm hoping for 10's.

 

good luck, let us know how it turns out

 

ouch, im guessing oil pressure just dropped? non ported ls1 oil pump was the devil of it maybe?


glad you got a new and more powerful motor in the car. Good luck, and 3,000 miles is plenty for you to break it in. Time for you to go racing

 

welcome to the site

 

welcome car sounds cool

 

Got some double entendre there?

Keep us posted on your progress.

 

Welcome!! Nice car...I'm from Va myself, where in Va are from? Have any pics of your Z? Later!

 

WELCOME

 

welcome to the site. please post pics and times when you can. sounds like a killer setup.

 

Welcome Nice Car!...sounds truly awesome!

 

i'm from Centreville, VA. i don't have ne pics yet, but i'm workin on it. i found out the main bearings were bad b/c the stock ls1 oil pump went bad and there was a terrible clanking in the motor. Thought I tossed a rod at first, but now have a 408 stroker so its all good. it's a 6 liter iron block bored and stroked

 

if you dont mind me asking who built it for ya! you certainly have a nice set up i must say

 

the block was built by HPE with the help of Eric, but my boyfriend and i intstalled the rest ourselves.

 

i knew the location looked familiar..


and i think i know why it is going to run like a bat out of hell... he is on the board isnt he Chrijdi or something like that..


i was there for the enitre build of the motor lent a hand on it and what not. You got a good runner i must say

 

yeah, he's on the board. he goes by chrdij.

 

welcome to the board. Sounds like a good end result from a bad deal. Good luck on some low et's
