  1. Gav Have you thought about just doing a spot repair on that bucket? Then "patina-ing" the new spot to match the car?

    Is that from the inside of the lid? Not the top edge of the bowl?

    Ok...the carbs are on Cody's car. We have done some preliminary tuning. It's drive-able but not perfect yet. Seems pretty rich. I am only 3/4 turns down on the mixture nuts. I set the floats at 11mm plus like Blues document had. Also I am looking at Ramflo for filters but can't figure out which one is right. Does the H1, H2 or H4 fit the Datsun 38mm carb?????
  5. The other thing would be crossing a double line. If someone is at their mailbox and no one is coming I will move close to or even cross the double center line to give them lots of room. Same for dogs, kids etc.You can't program the car for this because it's against the law, but it sure is better than hitting a pedestrian!
  6. Tabco doesn't have them and neither does Futofab. If they don't have them I suspect they were never repopped
  7. Not a bad price, but I wonder how much rust is on it. Not a single picture of a rust prone area...
  8. @Chickenman I would "like" that post but I have evidently exceeded my limit for the day. Bartender! Where are my keys?
  9. Best guess would be the RB30 head breathes a lot better and it's a cross flow head
  10. I don't believe any OE bolts are marked 10.9. Most have numbers on them but not like that
  11. Looks like you got good coverage. Parts with these kind of shapes can be hard to get covered well.
  12. Nope!!!!! The cars didn't kill any body! The driver behind the wheel killed somebody or himself with a car!!!!
  13. On the loud injectors, if an injector was dry would it be louder? It seems like it would be... Maybe partially dry?
  14. Patcon replied to Dan Hansen's topic in Help Me !!
    That would make more sense, at least to me.
  15. Me too. I would do what CO suggested if I thought there was something that could create a hot spot. Otherwise, run it!
  16. Patcon replied to Dan Hansen's topic in Help Me !!
    Is there a difference???
  17. If it was mine, I would clean the rusty ones with brake cleaner and run them. If it doesn't shimmy on braking, the pads will make them nice and shiny soon. If it does, then turn them or replace them as Site said...
  18. I was about to say, I thought this was Thumpgun's stuff
  19. I second...
  20. If the company is an LLC and has little money in the company, you can only sue for the company assets. Which many times is next to nothing... They shutter the company and start up under a new name. Happens every day.
  21. Unfortunately we will all be pushed towards self driving cars at some point. The insurance rates will be set up to penalize those of us that still like to "drive" our cars. It's really hard to program for every contingency. How many more will have to die or get hurt before it gets close to "good"?
  22. "Round tops" refers to the earlier 240z SU carbs. Many people convert "flat tops" to "round tops". Some would argue the flat tops can be made to perform. Although they are more complicated... Look at Ztherapy's website...
  23. You mean you're not supposed to store car parts in your home?????? Don't tell my wife that!
