I'll be looking into the pushrod issue within the next 48 hours. It is not like they are a few thousandths off, they are more like 1/8" too short. I'll figure it out...just need a few quiet minutes to see what had happened with the measurement. I'm very excited to see this project take to life and I'm glad Alltrbo let me be a part of it. Dave

I love your engine-uity on getting this stuff to work together! I've been watching with interest from the beginning, and look forward to seeing it done. Keep the pics coming. -Jason

Dave, thanks and I'm glad you decided to be a part of it!
Jason, thanks. I only hope I turn out to be a decent systems engine-eer. I'll definitely keep going with this thread, though updates will probably continue to be sporadic.
As a side note; I haven't mentioned much about the body or interior yet, but I'll be giving a personalized treatment to those also, with parts I already have and parts I will acquire. In due time...

Home sick again , and the truck broke down to boot. (Darnit, I need a turbo Fiero to drive) So... Here's another PS. This is based on SOULCRUSHER's awesome GT, with a few tweaks and a color change of course. I ran out of patience in trying to find a pic of the proper wheels at that angle, so I left his on there. I do the color changes "manually" because I actually use Paint Shop Pro 9 instead of Photoshop, this takes forever.

Your build is coming along really well, as well as being pretty unique. I'm really enjoying reading along. Keep up the good updates.

I'm liking that colour scheme, if you could make the top a deep cherry red colour, I'd know how I'd like to paint mine then one day

Tom , thanks again.
x-thumpr-x, I'm almost finished with your indirect request. However, my computer had crashed and lost the right color so I'm going to have to match that up, and it will take some time. Life is incredibly busy for the time being.
As for MIDTRBO, stay tuned. Very awesome things are happening right now.

Just thought I'd show where the top color is coming from. I've wanted a ZX-10R since they came out, and back in August this brand new Candy Plasma Blue one with a steep discount sealed the deal!
It's slightly modded now, and I don't think I'll EVER own anything so insanely fast beyond this. MIDTRBO will be close though (yeah right). To put it into perspective, FieroX can't keep up in the 1/4 mile (even with the bike on stock tires) and this will easily outhandle his car, especially with his drag slicks installed. This bike makes 60 MORE horsepower (200hp) than a stock V6 Fiero, and weighs only 1/6th as much as one!

Needed: Good source of 60*V6 flat tappet lifters (ie: NOT made in China junk). Companies are giving me the runaround so far. Any leads?
Note: This has not impeded on further progress. Moderate fabrication, minor surgery. Pics soon.
