Yeah I know...only fast and fasterer

Go to bed already, you're gonna need to have your sleep patterns adjusted in a few more weeks for that 6 AM departure time to BG.

Wow Bob, those are some sweeeet numbers!

Do I understand correctly that you can have headers and the A.I.R. system? Did the headers come with the A.I.R. and O2 bungs in place or is that strictly a fabricate your own deal?

I gotta go find a second job. Hey Peaven....I got the slowest Z....but it still makes me look like this --->

They are most likely Watsons as they came with it. I have Watsons but don't need anything here in the sunshine state.

They are not Watsons. They are Stainless Works. Marc fabricated the AIR tubes, and he puts his own O2 bungs on the top vs the side, then sends them out for coating. I believe he's done a few with AIR tubes. Unlike the original AIR tubes, these are flush mount and do not protrude into the primary tubes. Looking at the originals, the AIR pipes cut right into the middle of each primary.

I guess next up is head porting, but I'll probably call it quits here. The cost for each hp just goes up and up...

When Marc re-enabled the shift light. Was he able to adjust the light for optimum acceleration? Enjoy the new power, Nice numbers.

That is good news to hear since many of our ZR-1 brothers and sisters live in states where inspections require it. Watsons use to be the only choice and since they are no longer made it was tough finding a used pair.

Due to the way the numbers are represented, you can't actually set it higher than 6,400 rpm. But it's set for that, and at least it comes on to give you an idea you are in the ballpark. Better than having the light just do nothing.

Bob thank you very much for sharing the light!

Now I have something to look forward to. I'm in one of those states that sniffs the tail pipes & does a simulated city/highway load loop on rollers to test for emissions and they visually look for all the EPA mandated equipment listed in a manual...if you pass the roller test and don't have the EPA equipment then you don't pass...technically anyway. Now at least I know it is possible to have my cake & eat it too....as long as I can pay the freight!
