Duneaddict,
Glad you knew what the Doc was up to. I figured you knew, you were just keeping "quiet" about it, LOL!
When Rick made MacDizzy a pay site, forum posting went to a standstill.....hardly any posting for weeks on end. That has changed though, posting has been picking up quite a bit lately. Lots of good info on that site.
I'm getting the itch to start a z400/QZ500/650 hybrid of my own. Did some measuring on the quad and the QZ engine, will have to do some custom machining and fabrication plus a custom pipe. Shouldn't be much of a problem.
Sounds like your going to have a potent LT250/QZ500 hybrid too. I have one of those......be careful...LOL!

Cool! A Z650 would be a great little project... Modern day suspension geometry, and mind bending HP... You'll have to keep me posted on your progress.
I'm getting excited about the hybrid... It should be quite a ride when I'm done.. I've had some wild ideas about suspension upgrades and such... All home-made of course. I cut the rear full floater and subframe out, and started over with a direct link shock and removable aluminum subframe... Looks like I'll have about 12" of suspension travel in the rear, working on my own A-arms too with longer shocks... Not sure If I can get to 12" travel up front, but should be close.
I'm striving for very plush suspension that needs to be very light weight. I think the motor will speak for itself.
Best Regards,

IT'S DEFINITELY NOT A SECRET ANYMORE... I was hoping to have one season of roosting the heck out of people, and claiming it was a stocker before the news got out. (I'm a big fan of the sleeper effect)
Oh well, I can always plead ignorance right?
Yes, I saw that one pipe on Planet Sand.... VERY BIG!!! I've built some big pipes before, but nothing like that one!!!
Any news on the cylinder guy yet?? I wanna get this thing going so bad I hurt!

Other pipe options
Are there any other Quadzilla pipes that are routed around the left side of the frame like an LRD or Trinity? LRD doesn't make their pipe anymore, so that only leaves Trinity for brand new stuff. For those that have them, what kind of power do these two systems make with a mildly modified engine (reeds, reed spacer, cool head, etc.)? I'm no drag racer, so I really don't like top-end power. I prefer good ol' grunt. Any help?
