I think the paddle shift 260 would probably of been quicker on the move than the current manual box ??

Hi Nigel
I will be there for just after 4pm friday i would like to get the front stripped rad out and maybe a few other bits so on sat we can get the motor in. I have seen the kit he has it looks all there. The only thing is make sure about the pully size as the amount of boost its set for as too mutch will pink and kill your engine. I am no expert but i belive 6psi is about as mutch as safe on a std compresion engine. Best to be safe and ask. It looks as new condition. I would have thought it would not be hard to fit yourself. After book it in to a rr to tune it . Trailer it there and leave it to an expert.
dave
might see you friday
wonder who bought the other "stage 3" engine and box. ?

Hi All
I will be going to have a look at the Roush supercharger tomorrow, cash ready but it all depends on whats there. I spoke to WR this afternoon and it is not a complete kit. However I have asked advice and as long a certain items are there, the rest can be obtained. So unless I recieve a call from Dave ( he has seen the supercharger at WR workshop) before I leave home tomorrow morning at 0900 telling me that he did not see a Manifold (which the blower sits on) attached too or with the Supercharger. Ill just have to go and have a look. It will cost me a tank of petrol and some time but if it all works out I may have a ZT385 before xmas. And all for less (I hope) than £2500
Fingers and everything else crossed.
Regards
Nige
PS, Dave if you read this please contact me anytime tonight up until midnight on my moblie or any time after 0700 Fri AM on my home number or mobile up to 0900. After 0900 ring me and let it ring off and I`ll ring you back as ill be driving. Thanks
