Message	off with a brand new Nissan built short block. It's been proven that the stock short block can handle plenty of power as long as there is no detonation. I'm putting in a new OEM short block when that time comes. The worst thing of course is losing fellow Z enthusiast's because a motor wasn't assembled right. We didn't get to hang out too much but were going to miss you. I understand, it can be so dam frustrating when the shit doesn't run right. (especially after spending good money) BTW both Rich's and my car are still mis-fireing like mad, haven't driven the thing all summer it seems. F**K knows what's wrong with them, we can't figure it out. Last dyno: 478 whp 435 lbs-tq On 94 octane @ 17psi Best 1/4 mi: 12.59 & 120mph on old steet tires
