Message	Here is a shot across the garage. The "built" Z is in the foreground and has been disassembled for 1 year now. Here is the empty engine bay shot. This was more than I was going to be able to complete before Zcon, so I planned to drive the Stage 3 Z. However a couple of weeks ago the stock clutch starting slipping alot, so an upgrade was necessary. Trans pulled with help of the bench on wheels and a Floor trans jack. Out with the Old. Got a new tool. This thing works great. Ordered from Matco. A shot of the bench wheels. I have put almost all of my shop stuff on wheels. Makes moving stuff around really easy. Also shown here are the Stillen I/Cs donated from Project mothball since it is being upgraded. This theme recurred once I got into this project. Specialty Z flywheel. Start of the New. Roller bearing Pilot bearing installed. Rear Main Seal parts. Rear Main seal installed Flywheel installed Clutch and Pressure Plate (Thanks Specialty Z) Clutch Installed. Pressure plate installed. Can anyone spot what's wrong with this picture? Cost me a few lost hours. Throwout bearing installed href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj168/btskaggs/?action=view¤t=150.jpg" target="_blank"> ACPT driveshaft also donated from project Mothball. It was just laying on the shelf, so why not. Pass side Intercooler and duct installed. I/C closeup At this point I was planning to stop, but I had more parts slated for project mothball that were just sitting on a shelf. So, onto the Selin translator Velocity stacks on MAFs. I was eager to try this as I had been running dual pop with single MAF on my other Z with the drivabililty kit. Side view of the 3 velocity stacks. All three are slightly different, but one was also shorter, so I used the 2 with same height. Filters before cleaning. After cleaning and Oiling Dual filter, MAF setup. href="http://s272.photobucket.com/albums/jj168/btskaggs/?action=view¤t=168.jpg" target="_blank"> And After as it sits now. Also changed Oil, filter and trans fluid of course. Topped of radiator with one bottle of Water wetter. Ready for Zcon trip!
