Terrapin Z

I have a full set of caps off a 260 motor I'd sell. It was sitting outside for a little bit so there is some surface rust on the outside. They are still bolted down though.

I have a couple of that style air boxes.

@Captain Obvious I hope this is what your after.

This set up looks like the ZX strut. Not the earlier S30 style but S130. I don't where the OP mentioned what car. Same problem though.

In the first picture the strut looks like the gland nut has come loose and the strut cartage is up inside the spring area. The second pic look more correct as you can see the nut and just the inner piston is in the spring area. Here is a pic of the strut cartage so you can see the inner and outer parts.

What happens when you rub your eye?😂 Do you go bug eye?

I was curious about why my one measurement was different that site's. So I measured again. Must of had the mic cockeyed.

Short one in the front carb, tall one in the rear. I measured just the hex portion without the sealing washer. (Is your measurement up on the round part near the top of the valve?)

I need to get some carb parts out for another guy, while I have the carb box out, I will look at the 3 screw valves and see what's in there.

As so simply put in the FSM "Check for wear and breakage. Replace if necessary"

@Racer X , I posted that one a while back when they only had one pic. Same price still. Same pic's.

Oregon had some CK plate numbers. It was for Crater Lake area.

My friend has the trim, he wants $200.00 for the full set. About par with most 240 trim I see on eBay. He is not very far from me. Shipping will be interesting, kind of a wide flat box. I'm sure they would call oversize. Let me know if you are interested. You might want to find something more local.

I have a bunch of Z stainless if that will work for you. I might have a source for 510 stainless I can check with if needed.

I saw the Facebook post just now too. $200k seems a bit high IMO, and of course you will be getting bashed on that medium. Again good luck. Glad I got my car when I did. At todays prices I stole it.

Nice looking car, It appears the bidders were looking for your reserve. Good luck with the sale.

Glad to hear it all went well and you were able to get working brakes. I'm near Portland so I will be using their services as well in the future.

Cool I've used them for a few things.

These are only $9 (plus some shipping I expect) https://www.240zrubberparts.com/apps/webstore/products/show/5507031

I picked this up at a swap meet a while back. It is missing the top nut though. I have since found an original bullet tip that works so I would sell this if you're interested.

I'm no expert on distributors, but I think that is a euro distributor and may have a different advance curve. I found this old post about that very dizzy. I also found this chart showing the advance differences. Maybe someone here can explain what the different curves will ultimate mean for your set up. Just to add to your frustration 🥴 I hope it works for you.

I grounded mine to the screw that holds the condenser, over to a coil mount bolt. Then a bigger wire from the coil mount bolt to the battery directly. The points ground from the advance plate to the body through the internal wire. Also look for cracks in the plastic isolation pieces as they can short out too.

When I bought '70 my car the PO had a B 4sp and 4:11. He auto-crossed it a little, and liked the quick off the line zip. Horrible for the highway though. I found a 3:54 from the automatic cars and that worked pretty well It just screamed a little still on the 70-80 mph highway runs. I then found an 83ZX 5 speed and used a calculator like you have here. I ended up with a 3:70 R180 open diff from a Maxima. That worked out really well for my driving style.

I do have some stock Nissan injectors, if you want to go that route, just let me know.

Those don't look right. The valve cover should have all flange bolts, not separate lock and flat washers.
