It's a good motor, I want the carb so I can run a bit faster while working on the EFI set-up. $800 for a motor with that kind of milage is a steal, I'd go for it if it wasn't for the fact that mine drives fine. That and for like $180 in seals you can get it ported, oh plus porting time. Something tells me just a fresh 12A will open your eyes a bit though.

BUUUUUUUUUUURN!!!!

Well my trip to Kamloops is almost to an end. Saw 2 more GSL SE's today, one was white and looked nice, and the other was a Targa7 GSL SE. :D The lack of FC's in this town is a little disheartening though, only have seen 2 so far and one was the white TII vert and the other was a beat S4 GXL.

I'll be back on the island tomorrow though, not sure what time, but I have got a few days off to be filled with playing Project Gotham Racing2 on my new X-Box! w00t! Gonna nerd it up before I go back to work.

I think i'm just going to drop it in as is and then attempt to rebuild the blowen 12a to try and "learn" or see what it's like in there for fun. If i do, i will then port that motor. Untill then, it's just stock 12a with the carb and full exhaust. I just hope the guy will bring it out though

legally blonde 09-05-2004 10:12 AM

does any one know what that pipe going to the cat is i think it is just for emmiso and such corret me if i am wroung i have 12a

legally blonde 09-05-2004 02:52 PM

never siad i did nto bleav you cause that is what i though it was just by p[ass hose but why remove the pump doesnt it open the ports up

and i am on slow computer so looking up stuff is pain on thsi pos

and if i cap it off ant that bad i f i keep the pump on right now i just got ot venting to open air i had feeling it was for emion that it is just push air into the cat caxuien it to eat more emmions and stuff

BC-X 09-05-2004 03:10 PM

solution:
remove air-pump
pinch off split air pipe (if you haven't already ditched the cat-back)

Problem solved. end of question.

NashMan 09-06-2004 11:25 AM

Anyone want to buy a header for a 12a? Brand new. Only been out of box twice. was 269.99 + taxes = $330.xx from SHC, i'd sell for $260


Need to sell my car. Ad's in the for sale section. If anyone can find a buy, i'll hook them up with some $$

Standalone EFI is on hold.............................it's weber time instead;)
That said I WILL eventually mod this manifold for EFI and run standalone, it's just not in the cards this winter:(
Horrible gas mileage here I come.

At least the webers are easy to tune.My 45 DCOE is great;)

RZ350 09-12-2004 07:30 PM

Due to price of weber and possible source for cheap EFI stuff, I may just pull out the stops and go that route. I'm seriously considering both now. I'm just gonna wait and see when my manifold arrives whether I can use it as a base for EFI or not.
Grant

P.S. How much fuel are you going through with the weber? Much increase in performance?
