3.1 engine done now...

Ian,

it's outrageous the extra torque one has with a stroker - can't describe it to someone who's upped from 2.4 to 2.8 litres - the extra 3 or 400cc is amazing - happy that you're just beginning to 'feel' it.

Exploiting it is another thing but you'll grow into it.

Ian it sounds fantastic, always thought it would be followed your rebuild for many years on here . As you know I have only 2 issues with the body the rest of the car is truely awesome Can't wait for the day you take me for a spin in her you would probably prefer to knock my block off if you ever met me :lol:.

P.S. This is one of the best Z's in the country.

BIG, big statement. Explain why please.

BIG, big statement. Explain why please.

Because I know my onions :lol:As stated in my comments earlier I have been watching the build of this SPECIAL car for many years & think that Ian has chosen his components very carefully. Your car is not in the uk so you do not quallify for this award .
P.S. Sean do not question me, I know my Z cars inside out, more than you will ever know, if the funds where there I would shock you all.

I'm so pleased you are on the road Ian. So much work. Well done. Now keep those smiles coming.

Not good enough for me my friend - I don't know you, never met you and don't even know at this stage if you HAVE a Z or not.

Ians' project is a personal one with lots of known brands involved - you'll have to justify your statement further or accept a question mark.

No offence Ian - enjoy.

Blimey, thanks all.
Sean agree, its the torque that is just, sooo lovely. If anyone is thinking about going the stroker route (and can afford it), do it, you won't be disapointed,

Samuri-240, I don't see why I would need to knock your block off, from the thumbs up you have given my car.

This weekend has been sorting out a couple of things, and another issue developed, which is being sorted. Put paid to being out for a drive yesterday in the sun. Oh well. Part of the shakedown of such a build.
