Welcome to the club. I am fairly new but, it is a very good place to get info for your Z. Your carbeurators are they flat top SU's, I just converted my Z and still new to it.

Depending on your budget, you could look for some used round top SUs, or go with a freshly rebuilt set from http://www.ztherapy.com. I see used sets on eBay all the time, and someone here might even have a set for you. You're also going to need the proper linkage parts. Not sure of the details here but someone will chime in I'm sure. I have a 73' that was already convereted when I bought it. I'm happy with it so far but have nothing to compare to.

Here's a set of round top SUs on EBay. There's almost always one set at any given time being listed so if these aren't up your alle wait alittle while and something will probably turn up.

I have a set I would let go for $200 plus shipping. I also have the air filter cover, etc. pm me if anyone wants them!
