Thank you 240 is not good. 34row where u live ist a must.

Our heads run at about 250F under normal circumstances. You won't be damaging them by running 240* oil temps.

I was refering the head issue getting damaged because he said the motor temp was one dot away from the max to the far right. Engine over heating will destroy those heads.

Those are really good results, full boost by 3-4krpm! 430whp!

Got Ryan's car back in today, moved the oil cooler to the front and made a shroud to direct air into it through the rather small grill openings in the bumper. Pulled the turbo and wrapped the blanket tighter, completely consealing the exhaust housing. Also removed the lower coolant house and heat wrapped it, and reinstalled. Made an aluminum coolant overflow/expansion tank as well to help keep the system full and air free! Few little things to go over in the morning and she will be going back to the dyno with new upgraded MAF's, a retune, and more boost!

This build is amazing and im happy to see a Z pull it off so clean and well done! Tuned in for final results

Again Very Very nice work!!!

maybe black ceramic coat the piping for a stealthy look and heat protection? It would hide those beautiful welds though.

JordoKAP · 05-18-2011, 02:46 PM

Very impressive.

What MAF sensors are you guys going to upgrade to?
