Hello all, I tried to find out more on this 70's piece. I just got off the phone with Motor Sport Auto ~MSA~ and they told me that this style is no longer availible anymore either seperate or with the Targa System which is also now discontinued. P/N 15-6031 (Resonator in the Targa System set up) is not as pictured in the catalog and really is a Side by Side design instead of Twin Stacked. Also of note the sales rep on the phone said these MSA Resonators that THEY sell were NOT made by ANSA MARMITTE but were instead made by a completly different company called B&C Industries located near Orange California. He also said ANSA at one point did go out of bussines then came back under new ownership but I can't confirm this on the Net yet. Some research did say they were popular upgrades in 1970 to 1973 on 240Z's then on 260 and 280z when they came out. ANSA (Ligit, Original) stop making these around 20 years or so as far as I can tell. My only regret is having less than 1 than I really need :tapemouth :hurt: Inlet Diameter is 2 1/3 inches and both tips are 2 1/3 inches each with an inside outlet diameter of 1.1 inches for a combined total outlet Dia of 2.2 inches. I've included photos with measurements of my ANSA and pics from the MSA catalog incase you like to give them a Call as well and confirm what was said. p.s. Dsport is the worlds best magizine (shameless plug :cheeky: ) http://dragsport.com/index.shtml ~Z~

YO~ I was wondering should I sell one of my 70's ANSA Resonators and use the proceeds to buy another ANSA in a different style I don't have yet :beard: . Or should I pony up the funds to buy the new ANSA out of pocket and still keep this one in the collection too. I'm trying to save money still for a 1970 Z hence my delema at hand. I like the Dual Stack Slash Style and kind of don't want to sell it. So it might go up on EBAY if I decide to keep my Z funds . These are photo of my ANSA. The one i'm thinking of selling is still in Factory vacumed sealed shrink wrap. More photos of it here http://s170.photobucket.com/albums/u280/Wingzr0/ANSA%20RESONATOR%201970s%20NOS%20%20%20Slash%20Cut%20Twin%20Tip/ Any advice would be great as allways ~Z~

I read the News paper article and Specs on this. They were trying to pump it up not to long after Earnhardt died. Never mind the "Drivers Safety" rant. There is nothing that can't be done to a current racer with a little Engineering to make it just as safe. Another Excuse to be Cheap and FINALLY destroying what was supposed to be, "STOCK CAR RACING". ALL THUMBS DOWN ~Z~

If you want to make money on a car buy a MOPAR ~Z~

HAHAA ! Welcome to the show ~Z~

Tell you the truth this was the First "Restored Z" I picked apart and it was only from knowledge I gained here, Thyanx GUYS ! ~Z~ :rambo: :bandit:

POOL sounds about Right

26 in Racerville CALIFORNIA Born in Vancouver,WA - too much rain Moved to Indianapolis - way too cold Moved to Sacromento, CA .... man it's nice out here ! :classic: Pulled over by the FUZZ 5 Times and still ain't got a Ticket :cheeky: :tapemouth ~Z~

Yeah, I saw that. After going over the photos, The dash cap is wack, The steering wheel is done ~as in finished~ and the underbody consist of Panasports with heavy overspray on ~Surface rust reused suspension pieces~. Esentially I think It's a ok Z with a Darn good paint job. Figure you can take a bucket, hual it to Maco and get tha same results for half the price OK..... Maybe it's jus when I hear the word RESTORED when I'm looking at Old "came with the car" door panels and counsel pieces is why I'm being so hard on it :hurt: . I'm I alone in this? ~Z~

HI Randy ! Goo:classic: d choice with the White, It's a more Happier color :classic: ~Z~

Awesome job , Those mag wheels had to go :cross-eye :classic:

Ok, the 2nd link was the Silver Z as car of the month. As you can see I'm quoting myself here,.... how sad :tapemouth

I had to pass.... underneath the paint there was so much rust, the rust had rust ! ! ~Z~

As quoted by Carl B. Geezer makes a good point too but when someone mentions flood thats when I start looking for life jackets, Unlike the other 15 houndred that went down with the Titianic :paranoid: Oh yeah BTW a Z I wanted to buy in the FEES FOR A NON OP 1st gen Z CAR thread, underneath the paint there was so much rust, the rust had rust ! ! ~Z~

Yeah. I was like, "That looks clean, that looks clean". And then I was like, "WHAT ! Valve cover! ? ! Rusty engine block, wud up wid that? Other than that, a fair deal. But why go that far unless your gonna do the engine too? Unless he decided to sale before topping off the icing on the cake :classic: ~Z~
