Hi SPEED and welcome to the NW. If you wanna meet a bunch of us and are planning on caravaning down to wenachee with everyone, you might wanna purchase a packet to join us for the weekend for our yearly road rally. I know all the hotel rooms are gone, but Im sure someone will let you crash on their floor. Heres the website on some of the info on events that happen during the rally. http://nwrotorrally.org/ except for the after hours fun.

I will pm you my number if you wanna call me with any questions on what this rally is, or help you out with any of it. Its past the deadline for everything, but theres always room.

Again welcome and hope to see you at our rotor rally.

 

Just sighned up for the rally!!!
Code blue 2 has ben a great help! Thank you for geting me in touch with her!
Lot's of work to be done on my 7. Better get to work. ( all part's will bolt right up )
I thought i saw notverryhappyjack ripping buy today as i was leaving the D.M.V on 85th buy costco 1:00?. i cut off the lady in the right turn lane ( was going to lee jhonson to pick up my trany seals from kevin ) and gave chase. you must have got on to 405 i tried! You where gone!!!!
Any of you local guys have old tires for sale? Mine have flatspots from siting too long ( stock 4 spoke rims ) i will not install this axle with these tires and trash the barings. and i dont want to buy new tires and rims untill i rebuild the suspention! ARGHH IM STUCK!!! Old is ok just as long as they are legal for the weachie p.d. let me know if you do have some that you want to get rid of. thanks.

 

SPEEDRATED needs a room-mate or someones room that he can at least grab the carpet with his sleeping bag. Please let him know if you have any room.

 

HOLY CRAP Z BEATER!!!!! Just saw your video on nopistons!!! THATS WHAT IM TALKIN ABOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Here she is!!!

 

Damn, I like. Good to see that it went to good hands!

 

Thanks z beater! I am soooo happy with her i could cry!! (see why i feel like i stole it)
after i do the suspention she gets a draw thru turbo setup and h2o injection! i just need to figure out what parts i need and where to get them!

 

I will be more than happy to show you my setup for water meth injection. Honestly though unless you are going to be boosting in the higher psi ranges it is useless IMO.

There are not too many carb'd setups that come out, but codeblue has a pretty sweet one. Just take your time and look at his setup.

 

cool cant wait to see it!
I have a cooling mist kit for a chev 350 i am building. 11.5:1 big cam forged piston gas hog. plan is to run the thing (try anyway) on pump gas and lean it WAY out. trying to mix power and milage. but i need to learn more about exaust temps as this will be my main tuning guide. did you know the cooling mist kit 150psi pump will only last 100 hours?!!!!! wish i knew that before i got it! i am thinking of some kind of compresed air setup with a back up air pump to solve the problem of buying a new pump every 100 hours. is your setup powered by boost or a pump?
when i do the 7 i thought of using boost pressure power the system. have heard this is way easey to do.
