Tubing Diameter: IIRC 5/16" ?
Overall Length: ?

Anyone else? I don't need the wall thickness it was just one of those things that would be nice to know.

Looks like you don't want to be slower than my SE.
Don't hide your project for long -I need some cheap mods this winter since I can't afford the cam anymore due to the $1750 trans rebuild.

- The PCM does not like the 15 lbs. of boost and is dumping it. I think I have fixed this but don't like the fix. A custom PCM will fix this but I want to get a few other things done and some data logging before I get one.
- Harmonic Balancer took a dump. I've looked at getting a custom aluminum made up but it will be too expensive. I'm going to get a stock one and lighten it up by about 15-20%.
- Girlfriend wanting me spending my time and $$ on her and not the car. It gets really expensive when you are flying/driving to Rochester, MI every weekend and coming back to Bolingbrook, IL for the week.

1:8.1 Full Roller Rocker - I have found a whole line of 1:6, 1:7, and 1:8 roller rockers that can work for our cars. I can get them to work on a '92 head (3/8" bolt hole) or a modified '93-'95 head (drilled and tap 5/16" to 3/8" bolt hole). It just might need custom pushrods or custom spacer on the rocker. It will also need custom valve cover spacers. I have also found 1:7.1 full roller rockers that will work on '93-'95 heads without modification but you will still need custom valve cover spacers - they are also about half the cost of what’* out there right now. As for the other rockers they are about the same price of what’* out their now.
Ryan (JLAudioEclipse) has been talking to a few people and working on getting a modular pulley system for a keyed M62 snout. Only thing that might stop this from happening is the over all price.
Some other things I'm working on / saving up for over the winter since the Bonne is parked.
- 3.33 final drive gearing - The 3.33 sun gear is very cheap ($17), it will just be the install that will kill me.
- Shift kit and a vacuum modulator - To firm up my shift and hopefully save my clutches.
- Custom A/C delete pulley that will allow you to bypass the A/C like on a L27. Pulley is made, I just have to test it out and make sure it works well. It will allow you to keep your A/C system just like the ZZP one but much simpler.
- Custom light weight water pump pulley - it will weigh even less then the one I have now (looking for half the weight ~ 5oz.)
- Custom light weight crank pulley - like I said above about 15-20% lighter.
- PEMS and 3" down pipe.
- Looking at P&P the lower intake manifold, supercharger, throttle body and maybe even upgrading the */C and TB.
- Custom chip with adjustable timing, setup for 3.33 gearing, higher shifts, etc.
- Custom full size IC - I just need to figure out how to get the fuel rail to work for a full IC. If I can't get a full sized IC to work then I'll probable go with nitrous.
- Weight removal - my car need to go on a big diet not only to help the overall E.T. but to save trans.
