Ei yie yie. Rbtally youre nuts, but then I again I knew you were gonna do it. My friend even said if he puts a powerglide on its over, and you did. The local meet was today and I mentioned your car and they crapped their pants. Beautiful work I hope that adapter plate works out well! Keep us updated.-Alex

that is a very nice setup....you want to make and sell another adapter plate to me?...that or I was just going to take down the measurments myself and get one made sooner or later. Wouldn't even have to be trimed, just a sheet of aluminum with it tapped and I would trim it myself.

If that is of some interest of you....let me know. [email protected]

He showed me his old oil pump and was telling me how it kept slipping at high RPM killing a few turbos. I can't wait to see this thing run again.

I'd love more info on this. I had a turbo go bad on me about 2 weeks ago. What is wrong with the OEM oil pump, what causes it to 'slip' more details please. I've seen mulitple cars do 5-6xx hp on OEM oil pumps.

That Trans b t w should be nasty. What rear end is it going with.

I'm not an expert on the subject, (I think there is a thread on here about it) from what i understand the mateing surfaces on the oil pump and crank are too small and tend to slip allowing the oil pump to frop pressure for a second. And he is using the 300zx rearend, the same one he has been running. Yeah we are working on mine right beside his, and i hope my RB25 can somewhat comepare to his, when we are done.
