EGR heat shield?

[gotham22]

Guys, Anyone know where I can get this part?

Are you doing a resto?  Need it shiny?  I did a quick run around the internet and it looks like a hard-to-find piece.  It's in the carpartsmanual list, but not the illustration.  Then if you search the number you get on to a merry-go-round to other parts.  I did find one picture of it on a ZX diagram though.  Part #14710E.  You can carry on from here.  Good luck.  I'll bet you could make a good facsimile by yourself with the right material and some tin snips.

Here's the ZX illustration but there's no link to a part - https://www.nissanpartsdeal.com/parts-list/1981-nissan-280zx/egr-parts.html?Diagram=147_A01

#57 here is a heat shield but it's not shown in the drawing - http://www.carpartsmanual.com/datsuns30/Datsun-Z-Index/Engine-280Z/Manifold-Egr/From-Aug-76

Yeah, I probably could dig up an old crusty one.  I've deleted the Egr on my Z and have a zx motor that has one I'd think. They are burnt looking the best I remember.

Zed head thanks for the effort! Siteunseen, I have one on my z it’s just in bad shape. Not sure how to refresh it as it seems to be cardboard or something

Just so I am calling this part by the correct name, it is a heat shield for the egr valvue right?
