FYI, I'll try and find a dyno day around DFW in the near future to get some dynojet numbers for comparison.

Sounds like Dr. Greekenstein’s work.


BTW Steve, I see that u replaced a pilot bushing on Evan’s car. How did u trace it as the source of the knock? I’ve been messing w my car and getting spurious knock counts. I recently noticed that I could be sitting there at idle and getting a few knock counts or on decel or apparently when shifting into 6th gear.

I like my yellow Z but this is by far my favorite color.

Thanks, I've got WAY more $$ into it than I should have, but I wanted something unique (not they typical red, black, white), and steel blue is definitely a gorgeous and unique color. Add in the power and sound, and it's definitely my favorite car I've ever owned.

You have lots of company regarding $$ spent. I probably have $50,000+ into mine that I will never see again if I could even get half of what I have into mine. I never think about it while driving, especially in that 3rd gear, freight train pull & that great LT5 sound from 415 cu in, through 3” straight exhaust.
