If you've kept the factory AC plastic vacuum reservoir tank and the FICD & A/C magnetic vacuum valves it should be easy. The Vacuum tank has a one way check valve in the line just before the Tank ( underneath the relay cover ). Just connect the AC vacuum feed line to one of the legs on the Cannon manifold. That will cover your vacuum operated Heater/AC dash pots. If the manifold does not have a vacuum port, drill and tap one for a 1/8th pipe thread. The heavy pulsation of connecting a vacuum source to one leg on an ITB manifold does not matter in this case because the Vacuum tank will act as an accumulator and the 1 way check valve will prevent vacuum from draining from the tank. ITB manifolds will actually pull a very strong vacuum signal...but with pulses. This tends to screw up a distributor vacuum advance which is connected directly to a manifold leg, but should not affect the Factory AC vacuum reservoir system because of the Reservoir tank. To run a Vacuum advance properly with Triples, you have to build a manifold log to dampen the fluctuations. . If you find that you need an AC throttle kicker, it might be best to toss the factory Vacuum dash-pot kicker and utilize an electric solenoid that extends when 12 volts is applied. You can easily splice that into the AC clutch 12 v line and fabricate a bracket for the Triples. Modify the main linkage rod with a Tab, so that solenoid " kicks " the main throttle rod when the AC comes on.

Taiwan and Mainland China are two different regions with respect to geography but more importantly with respect to cultural acceptance/apathy towards corruption and fake goods. Taiwan is very western and proactive where as mainland China is very communist and corrupt. Hong Kong is the last bastion of the western ways but is being swallowed.

Hi I just posted this up on the Portland Oregon CL. http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/pts/4753948737.html Thanks neil neildautrey@yahoo.com

True Leon. My problem is the coming down to see you peeps at sea level.

I have one on the fornt of my 280Z. I bought it in Feb 2014. Positive: Fitted well. Did need a little sanding on the inside line to match passenger side valance. Mounting brackets are slotted which allows room for adjustment. No pitting in fibreglass surface. I have seen others with a lot of pits in the surface. Cheap. Im using it for testing. Plan to buy a harrington SS bumper (much) later when car is resprayed. Negative It will need some work to look really neat. The end "Caps" are not finished very well. Storage scuffs. Will need painting to fix it. Nothing serious, but its visable. See photos. Chas
