the gauge won't stop going up. Been there done that many time before in my 1975 280zt. Even had to shut the car off many times.

This is preventative measures on my part, another "just in case". So far I've been fine, but I'd like to keep it that way, and if it starts becoming an issue I'll definitely add the 3rd one. Good to know you've seen this as a problem, that makes me more aware of the possibility!

He has too. The guy that bought Ryan's old car also had the same issue. It is not uncommon at all with the 370ztt cars.

At what point do you stop because of high temperatures?

Up next is the fuel return system. Ordered a CJM S1.E fuel return kit through RT Tuning yesterday.

JLarson · 03-04-2021, 11:16 AM

Amazingly the kit just came in this morning! That's much better than I anticipated.

Wow!!!! Over night delivery. Can't beat that at all.

That's fast.

Isn't that the truth?

Scheduled to drop the car on March 30th. I'm having RT do the work due to a shortage of time, first work I'm actually subbing to a shop (other than Big Russ's Z Car Emporium and Gun Shop). Also having them upgrade the wiring on the fuel pump and upgrading the fuel pump to the Walbro Hellcat 525 lph.

Looks like I'll eventually be building this thing for big power... the boost junkie label is real.

Go big or go home and my new saying is want some get some! Don't just talk about it!
