<div>I've got the NOS lines on the intake in #3400 two lines plumbed to each port --- I had a guy try to talk me into hooking his bottle to it ---- I told him to take a hike as engine not new and I had no idea how it was build AND I couldn't afford another ZF. I thought I might install the one I bought without the lines for ease of keeping it clean etc. But it has no choke heat riser port so not sure how that would affect my Kansas winter starts.</div>

<div><br></div>
<div>NOS sleeper huh?! <img src="http://mail.yimg.com/a/i/mesg/tsmileys2/14.gif"> Well you know what they say about age and treachery winning over youth and good looks... or something like that.....Sounds like a winner to me. Keep your compression low. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Any one of you run NOS before? If so what did you run on it on? </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Thanks for report.</div>

<div>I won't run a stock cam -- but nothing real wild ---- I still use stock engine cover so height of intake / carb. is a problem --- I picked up another Preformer F-351 ( that is what is in 3400 now -- but present installation has the NOS lines and valves -- which I never used ) and due to my street driving time I will probably stick with the baby 600 cfm for now.</div>

<div>The engine is going slower than I would like ---- I need spacer for damper, bolts for same, rod bearings ( they shipped wrong ones ), my new clutch plate, pilot bushing, and flywheel --- get them to MS so they can balance assy. The grade 8 bolts for front pulley I should have in my bolt bin -- spacer ordered from Summit -- pressure plate from Dennis Q.--- flywheel from Jegs. I'm going that 25# steel flywheel (the one that may get machined 5 miles west or our west coast line). Plate is same as present one ( late 360505 McLeod ----- disk is late 260131 McLeod ). The spacer came in today.</div>

<div>Bud,</div>
<div>You certainly got my respect and envy again for that RT/SS in the Pantera... Thats a beautiful road through Colorado and Utah. I've made a couple west coast 3,000 runs driving the Pantera from LA or SF to/from Seattle and back but the drive across the country in the Pantera would be much more of an adventure then towing it behind the truck. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Bret Bobo (actual name) came out from NYC to Silver State one year, as has Paul 'Chitown' Timco from Chicago or Crazy Dave Doddek from IL. and I think about a half dozen die hard enthusiasts come out every year in their Pantera's from right coast....but you are 1st to do it and finish on 7 -cylinders.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Wots latest progress on your rebuilt engine? <br> </div>
