ktm Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Then again, it does have an LS1 so it qualifies for the club. :) Honestly, leave it alone. I only have a black hood because it came black. My stock hood was orange but I was having overheating issues on my old L28ET setup. I bought the 1978 vented hood to help with the overheating and it came black. I added the center cowl accent to match my paint job. I plan on painting it in the future. Quote Link to comment
Tuan Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hate it. Needs more Ratness to it. I need you to like paint the hood rattle can black or something. Need you to kick a sidemarker off and let it dangle on the wires. Or do moose stuff to it. Quote Link to comment

Unfriendly Garage Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Those wheels look good, looking classy pleadingbark. I wish rota had old school style wheels with negative offsets. Everything looks narrow on this zx tank. Quote Link to comment

Everything looks narrow on this zx tank. These are also avail -5/-15 and the alecias are the say offset. Rota finally is realizing not everyone wants positive offset wheels. Quote Link to comment

metalmonkey47 Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Getting a new heart this weekend. Whats the plan? L28? Or bigger? Quote Link to comment
Pleadingbark Posted January 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 Just an l28. Has a header and a cam. Should be good for around 160-170 I'd figure Quote Link to comment
Interrobang Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Gorgeous! Cannot wait to get coilovers into my 280. Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hey Pleadingbark ! Love it !!! I replied to your L28 thread over on Hybridz :lol:;) I tried to use only a few words ,,, haha :lol: Quote Link to comment
Ratty260z Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Just an l28. Has a header and a cam. Should be good for around 160-170 I'd figure I dynoed my f54/p79 junkyard engine (unknown miles) combo with a MSA 3-2-1 header fidanza flywheel and round top SU's running 34 degrees total advance and 2 inch exhaust and made 150 ft/lbs of torque from 2500 rpm to 5000rpm and 143hp all with the stock cam and running a bit rich. Depending on which l28 you have and how big the cam is I think 170 or more is totally possible. I made 26hp more then the 280zx at the wheels from the factory so I'm happy can't wait to get rid of the 3.36 rear gears :) good luck with your z it looks awesome Quote Link to comment
Hakosuka Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 What kind of coilovers are you running? Quote Link to comment

Luckily they are tuned for an l28 with a cam already so I should be in business. Quote Link to comment
