From my limited observations if it's popping at the carbs then your running lean if at the exhaust then rich as it's unburnt fuel. It's very hard to guess from just that but looking at the jets your running I'd try 125 mains and see if you get an improvement as you also have 7772.5 emmulsions which are pretty rich re fuel. I think of it as sort of a ratio, ie there a stoich point that will work best re O2 mixture, you can acheive the same result by using richer emmulsion tubes and smaller mains or vise versa. Also does the hesistation happen at wide open throttle or when you just gear down and smoothly try and take off. Remember when you pump the accelerator/pump jets kick it with a squirt. You have a transitional rev range where you move from feeding off idle jets to main jets. I beleive that roughly about 2000revs and people often get falt spots there because the idles might be too small. You can also fine tune your idle mixture with the air corrector on the idles. As you have the performance carbs there more room for you to piss fart around unlike you mates carb that require the reducer ie air bleed. Just keep in mind that those idle jets are not reallr for idle as much as that they are for the sub 2000rev drving including the transition. Another thing that can get you those flat spots is if the carbs are not in sync re air flow and also opening at the same time. I'm no expert on these carbs, just stuff people on this forum have told me and my own tinkering so the points above are just based on trial and error. I have a spare set of 125 mains you can try out with a few sets of idles and 7222.10 emmuslion tubes. I think Sachi has got them atm. He might chime in on when he might be finished with them. Sulio

rear brakes still not ready for me! Sulio

It was a quicky but good for a quick peek at what we were up to on the day. I did have some of Gordo's footage but it was in DVD not AVI. I converted to AVI and found a quality drop, just did'nt have time to frig around getting it better so I stuck to Ash's tape and the pics everyone took. Sulio

There's quite abit on the sticky here: http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,788.0.html Sulio

...video ready on the front page of the site, refer the artical. Sulio

yep no probs.

Good idea re showing bank account details. We were holding off on the Vic account until we had a few more dollars as things like $5- monthly fees eat away our rich's but we might be able to sort something out. As far as the main account for hosting etc, thats soemthing I'll discuss with Gav. Cheers, Sulio

I know mate but your leaving us again for WA. :'(

I just bought another L28 from Lurch. It's an F54 block with an L24 E88 head thats had larger L28 valves fitted. Not sure if compression would be too high with flat tops on this combo but looking forward to learning a bit more as my build progress's. Will be keeping an eye out on this area of the forums on the coming months. Sulio Any progress Glen?

I recently bought a mig welder from Dimitri. Have'nt used one before but I'd be keen to read the write up. Thanks, Sulio

Thanks Paul. Gav will update your avatar to reflect your a donationg member soon. At some time in the future we hope to have some info up showing the costs of running the site. Currently all donations made via the front page PayPal button go to site hosting although I think Gav tips a bit in from his own pocket also. Craig and I have started a Vic fund via a raffle at the last Vic BBQ meet, I think we raised $70.00 and gave away some nice prizes including Z wall clocks, (Thanks to Bruce Traralgon, (Spamaster240) for donating them some time back, they came in handy). Our aim is to try and keep a couple of hundred in the kitty for things like BBQ's and possible future venue hire. We would be pleased to assist other state Moderators in getting organised if help is needed re promoting local cruises etc just get in touch via PM with myself or the other fella's. Thanks Again, Sulio

I've recently become a member of the GCC. Looking forward to seeing the track myself some tim ein the near furture. Sulio

thanks

This has been up for some time. Dimitri if there's no takers I'll grab em. My garage is only a few weeks away now. Talk to ya on the phone. Sulio

Certainly is good pricing considering you don't have to piss fart around with customs and deal with oversea's sellers. Good to see. Only if these were around a few years ago at this price.

yer he's on night shift atm so not sure how often he's logging in. But I have a spare set of air restricters. I lost one though so maybe Mick can make one up or maybe when you see em you can make one up. Call me and I'll send em to you Monday so you get em in the mail Tuesday. SUlio 0413 188 024

Evan, I did'nt know you had Koni's installed. The yellows? What part numbers and how much they sting you? Adjustable from in the car on the strutt top? Sulio

that should be in their catalogue

Great write up Warren. Skimmed though it first time as I was running late but read it properly just now. I wonder if it will catch their eye! Fingers crossed. Sulio

Yer nice car. Congrats on the buy. Pitty it did'nt make it's way to melbourne. We can always use a few more Z's down here! Sulio

Yer I was but back now. It was just a quick work trip. Cheers, Sulio

Cheap, not for long I think looking at the enquires! Sulio
