Hey Stu. How much would you be selling that sidedraft for, out of curiosity...

 

I would sell it, but simply put, the fact that I never got it to run correctly (and still do not know why) I would not sell it

Pics for kicks and giggles:

 

what was wrong with it, seemed like it ran pretty good today...

 

Whats that alternator thingy on top o' your motor? Thats so old skool!

Great meet guys. Looking forward to the next one already. Sorry bout the seat back Sam, I just needed the support while you were kicking the turbo for me :-)

 

It runs pig rich at idle. Can't get a good idle below 1000rpm.

I really need to get some 20mm freeze plugs. When I get this OER blown apart and all that, hopefully I will find something in it that is causing all this.

 

I h8 u sOoOoO bad lolz

 

sorry i didn't make it... it's been a stressful week. i barely made it out saturday night to our usual local spot.

i had to use yesterday as a "chill and do nothing" day to calm down. didn't even drive the 7 at all

next time

 

Thats ok, we didn't miss you. Just messin. We were wondering where you were though. I hear more twisty roads are to be seen...

 

well mine never idles under 1000

 

busted a coolant line today. the little one that comes off the side of the thermostat housing. while fixing it I broke a vac. line now I idle at 2200 will fix it friday. I hope I will get to see you guys in march. I'm looking for a cai any suggestions

 

If you are really interested in it we can talk

 

Stu your getting kinda picky with where you want that thing to idle arent you. Hell i keep mine at around 1500 just because i can haha, if you would just give in to the peer pressure and use a nice holley setup that someone has you might enjoy it.

 

Already gave in Those pictures are from last night when I got home.


Plus you got a streetport!

 

True......True......I think Stu was giggling like a little school when he called on his way homelast night. But, you can buy 'em books, send 'em to school, and all they want to do is color the pages and eat the cover! So, Stu. How was the ride today?

 

ahhhhhh!!!! these cars are SO stubborn!!!
It's like it thinks about something new to break every day!! oh well, it's a rotary what can ya expect

 

Oh god, what happened now?

 

well....lets talk then

 

Sam, I think u were the one that told me premix will eat up filters, but is 3 days and less than 100 miles a little extreme??

 

what kind of premix are you running. I would definitely recommend idemitsu rotary fuel lube

 

whatever I can find at the gas station, lol. But uh "idemitsu rotary fuel lube" Never heard of it?

 

ok, did some research, would you suggest the racing oil they make also?? I've heard royal purple is the best, but this stuff claims to be pretty good.

 

i would shy away from the Royal Purple. stick with castrol in the engine and use Either Idemitsu Rotary Fuel lube or Castrol synthetic pre-mix which can be found at any motorcycle shop.

pre-mix will not hurt your fuel filter in a matter of days unless it was already on it's way out haha. i have pre-mixed for years and it's the only way to go even if you still have the omp because THEY JUST ARE NOT SUFFICIENT ON THEIR OWN

public service announcement

 

any particular brand of filter do you run? Got mine from the zone last friday and I'm thinkin it's already clogged as of yesterday.

 

i use oem

even still, if it clogged up that fast i don't think it was the pre-mix.

 

was great meeting you guys sunday, and sorry we couldnt stick around sams dad made plans for us to eat at his house sunday and he gets kinda grumpy when we dont show up.
