Installing Z1 Over Dual Recovery

How do you install this ROM given that the dual recovery is registering the device (Z1) as a Z Ultra?

EDIT: Was able to flash this ROM successfully by first flashing the RevolutionROM Kernel.

Reboots after a few seconds

Does anyone know what's going with the ROM since it reboots after a few seconds of starting up?

Please read. It says

OS

Android™ 4.4 (KitKat®)

If you mean can we get 4.4 on our devices, well Sony have already promised it, so yes!

EDIT
Apologies to OP for replying to this OT, I didn't realise this spam was in this thread.

Sorry again for OT
@ishaqs, please use the thread in the general section to discuss the google edition Xperia Z. this thread is for a Z1 and a custom ROM.

Also, I am pretty sure the 4.4 version Sony have promised us will be stock
