That really doesn't make sense. 120 is close to stock. What did he do to the head?

I order all my hardware there ! Fast service

Continued on with the dual exhaust fab . I now have pipe from front to back - but nothing solidly welded yet.

Wow - did you look the definition up ? Symantecs.

It's a poor design and should be discontinued. I guarantee there have been many more failures , but some customers don't even realize it -until maybe their car rolls away. A partial fail won't be noticed until its too late. It should NOT be a 2 piece design for an emergency brake cable .

Maybe they use to sell those . The one I got was once piece ends . I actually emailed Ryan at ZCD to ask before I ordered

That looks like a MSA version , not a ZCD .

I ran into this - yes they are junk . What pissed me off more was it took MSA weeks to decide whether to refund my money AFTER I sent it back . I guess only one person can make that decision . I ordered one from ZCD . One piece ends - shouldn’t fail . I can’t believe MSA still sells parts like this . Do they test the parts ?

Well I ran out of argon which forced me to go back to my spool gun . Figured out it’s issue ( operator error ), but live and learn . It’s sooooooo much faster with MIG ! This is my initial attempt , but I might redo it . I was hoping for a bit more spacing between the pipes . I could have gained a bit more clearance by get the pipes side by side sooner . It will be a trick , but I have lots of mandrel bends to use . The back half will be the easy part .

Always impressed with the guys on this site. Your work is spot on!

It’s an interesting dynamic watching dual widebands with these plenums. Mixture varies with vacuum changes . I don’t use a dedicated grinder either . I might get serious and buy one just for that . Maybe a mini that sits on the welding table. I’ve got enough strokes against with skill level, so maybe clean consumables might help me . Burned a quarter inch hole already and was able to refill it - lol. The tig is slower , but is better if I can get it done .

Well this is going to be a slower process then anticipated. My spool gun is giving me fits and has forced me to actually learn how to TIG . I guess no time like the present to teach an old dog a new trick . I have played around with TIG, but I’m a rookie for sure . With a bad back I couldn’t refill my CO2 tank and the Argon tank was about full, so.... Almost have the first legs of the exhaust to the cat done ,which was going to be the hard part . I think I gained about an inch in ground clearance or maybe more . Got to get this right , because this will be the last time

Been running two Lamba’s . The cat is for smell, convenient packaging for two pipes .

It’s a Magna flow I think - not many choices 2” 2 in&out .

Finally going to redo my exhaust to gain clearance - remove resonators , add performance cat , and all new pipe from to back to front Besides the awkward and painful positions to do exhausts without a 6ft lift , I kind of enjoy crafting an exhaust system . I just buy and bunch of mandrel bends and pie cut what I need . Dual 2” gets tight :-0 Starting the first leg getting to the cat . Might challenge myself to TIG it

Be careful? As you can see from my pics I had to take the seats apart to do this. Don't remember melting anything . I've slept too many days to remember specifics

They know their stuff there . I am truly impressed by their CV axles . That’s size should work . The +11 helps the tire clear in the rear wheel arch

I believe it’s just a bit bigger

My buddy and I were talking about this web site and we both were complaining about the ridiculously small the font is on the pages . I would think with a majority of old geezers on here this subject would have brought this up before ? maybe you have , but it does take away from the fun of being on this site. This is the only car site I'm on that has this I have this issue with . Hybridz font is small, but its bigger than this . If there is a way to change the font just for this site I'd like to know

There wasn’t any suitable replacements forever and running a used one wasn’t thrilling to me . I’d say there’s more to go wrong with the pipe attached to the cam towers then oil coming right out of the cam. Didn’t realize that was a new cam oiler - which is great . Not saying one method is better than another , but it was hard to find new ones . I tried an aftermarket one that I had to modify the valve cover for it to fit -BS .

Got to say - surprised anyone messes with the spray bars . Looks like a new one , but they still scare me

Have you ridden in or driven a stroker Datsun yet ? You are going to love it !

The MN heads are going further down the production line finally . Worked all the ports except for the last head in which I had to remove liners because of damage . The pic is just a exhaust with some work done . Off to get vapor honed and then on to the machine shop for valves and machining . Then back here for assembly

Available to the highest bidder . I’ve had a lot of interest over this truck . I’ve also got more in it than most will pay - lol
