That's going to be the quietest Z on the face of the earth.

I kinda wish I would have ordered more of the V-Comp to go higher up the firewall and under the seats etc. What you see in the car right now is 98% of what came in the package. Should ship with about 50% more material for a complete installation.

 

Do you have a guess for how much weight was added with all of your various sound deadening material?  It looks great and would be awesome on a street Z!

I estimate I have added about 30 - 40 lbs of sound deadening. I removed about 100 lbs of tar and undercoat though....

30-40 lbs, that's my beer weight!

June?????!!!

I could take a fire log dump and lose 20lbs.

I have left what looks like, size and color of a beer bottle!

I am not concerned with the weight reduction in this car.
And yes, June... join the Army! There’s no life. Like it.

I am too broken for the army now, but I am glad there are guys that volunteer, US or Canada. Be safe!

I’m used to being partly broken most of the time. But at 51, I am getting closer to the point where it’s time to “pull pin”... For now, I enjoy working with the tanks.

Dang Wheee!  I was 54 in the Army inn Iraq in '08.  I was medevaced and spent another 17 months in the hospital,  before being medically retired

My hats off to you brother. I was 42 when I served in the infantry brigade, tank unit, in Panjwaii. Didn’t feel old then... but I served with a retired police chief who resigned his commission to serve as a Cpl tank driver in the army! He was 55!!

 

In other news, I decided to experiment a little more with the clear powder coat. I will post pictures soon, but I think I have it figured out and the results look promising!
