I am at 8 psi right now.

What info are you looking for as far as reliability? The car starts and runs like stock until you get on it. I had a slight hot start issue and that was fixed by Sam with a tweak to the tune. I put 8000 miles on the car last summer. I changed the oil twice.

So far it has been no less reliable than a stock z.

I hope I didn't just jinx myself with that one.

Nope. The block is 100% stock. If I have my way then I will have an upgraded block by next year. The wife knows its on the list.

Nice man. I want to go FI on my car next summer. I think 400-450 whp would set me right. I just worry how reliable it would be on a stock block

PS:
I watched your youtube videos and that is one mean sounding Z so awesome

What will make or break an engine is the tune, that's the most important aspect in the whole build.

People daily drive 450 - 530whp without issues.

Great work on a great car. Watched all videos biting my lip with an ear to ear grin. Just inspiring! It sounds great. I could just imagine that car in a CA highway and taking on the twisties along the coast.

Ha ha. Nope. I know I don't have much of a chance from a dig but I'd love to see how I'd do from a 30mph roll.

Was that flange provided in the kit? Or is that something you happened to fab up? If not can you point me in the direction of where I could possibly get that jig in order to drill and tap my head. Thanks in advance!
