Zedyone_kenobi Posted September 28, 2010 Share #1 Posted September 28, 2010 After a little hiatus from the road, I decided to take out my ZED for some fun now that the weather is beautiful. Also wanted to stretch her legs with the new Dizzy I just put in her. Pulls hard now all the way to 6700 rpm.. what sweet music. As you can tell, I have issues with taking pictures with shadows on them.. but oh well.. it was a great drive..

mikemerkury Posted September 29, 2010 Share #2 Posted September 29, 2010 Your beautiful Z was the initial inspiration that sprung me into restoring a 73. Thanks for the pictures.

Rich1 Posted September 29, 2010 Share #10 Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) Absolutely stunning! Your car is one of my favorites on this site. How did those new Z Therapy carbs feel at 6700?

Zedyone_kenobi Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share #11 Posted September 29, 2010 likemerkury...I am more than flattered. So many Z's on this site are my inspiration. I am humbled and honored to have been anybodies inspiration. Thank you very much.Darrel... touche! Frank... thanks very much. Kemah is a pretty fun place to hang out with the family. Makes for an interesting back drop. If I had more time, I would have staged things far better. Steve91tt... thanks very much.oiluj... I have a feeling when we get your finished product, it will inspire me to do even more. Cannot wait for more pictures of your beauty.dustin haru... you have to dill a few holes in the lower valance. There are already some, but you have to drill more. I think I drilled 6 to 8 holes.. I will have to check out my build notes in my Z notebook. I documented every bolt I ever touched on my car.The carbs felt great, the new recurved dizzy really makes it pull hard up top. Truthfully, I run out of cam at 6500, as it is stock. So no real point in revving it any harder. But I was curious as to how she would react. Since it went 'into the yellow'. I figured that was enough. I think it would have spun higher, but I think there is not much point to spinning the engine to 7000 for a joy ride. The car pulls like a monster up to 6000 rpm and seems very eager and willing to do it. So I usually shift out at 5500 or 6000 tops. Carbs have NO issues with this range. With my recurved/rebuilt dizzy and new carbs I really think my engine is as happy as it has ever been.

mlaw7 Posted November 11, 2010 Share #12 Posted November 11, 2010 Definitely an awesome looking Z!! You have done an absolutely beautiful job - very inspiring indeed.We should assemble a group from the Houston area to cruise down to Kemah one weekend and show 'em some Z power!! The Boardwalk would be a fantastic backdrop for some group pictures.
