New member/long time Kawboy
25 Jun 2012 20:31
I have belonged for a while now but have only lurked. I currently have a non stock 74 Zee and a KZ turbo project under way. I have had a 75 Z1, a 80 Classic and a KZ1300. I have had my 74 since 1976. I enjoy the forum and have been reading the "project section alot. I have become reinterested as I am giving my bike a facelift. Thanks

Not sure about a secret! I used a Garet T25 from a Mitsibushi,42 Mik, built the header and intake. It uses a surflo pump to lube the turbo with its own tank. I am having some issues with it. Hopefully get to it this winter. Doing a facelift on the Zee right now.

Good looking stable! Got pics of the turbo pipe and intake? I've got a soft spot for fabrication pictures.

Hey Les, I will try to get some up soon. I have to get that project moving again. It is rough but interesting looking. I like fabrication to.
