What should i do i need help
It is not a terribly simple thing to put a stock turbo on it. You can do it fast or cheap but you will end up trashing your engine...there are a lot of considerations when doing forced induction... I suggest you drive it for a while and make sure it all works well, them decide which way you want to go. If the car is not 100% when you decide to go turbo it will only magnify those problems

Always try to communicate with the seller through Ebay, It helps when making a claim

Thinking about installing an BMW M6 engine in my Z
Thanks Careless. I thought that might be the case but didn't want to assume

Original wood steering wheel
70-73 for sure. Ebay, Craigslist or a junk yard. The prices are going up because they are getting harder to find

69 Shell, assorted shells found
I am not sure I would have to pay the fines in South Carolina. Interesting thought though. You can apply for a title for any car older than 30 years if it hasn't been titled in our state previously...

Changing of the Guard
Yes ZH that is the article in the copy of Hemmings I have. I think speculators and car flippers are always looking for the next collectible car. I wouldn't be surprised if that is part of the recent rise in Z prices, especially after Mr. K's passing. Ferrari prices went nuts after Enzo died. As anecdotal evidence the Z's I see on dealer sites bring amazing money and most of those are going to be put back out for sale

Become a Porsche Guy?
He is in civil air patrol and really likes it. He is over 6' at 16 and I am 6'-5". I don't know that his heart will be broken if he doesn't fly a fighter. He just enjoys flying...

Wideband O2 Sensor
Many new cars have them in the down pipes before the cats. Some vehicles have three. One on each bank and one behind the cats. It shouldn't matter on the cylinder count. The sensor doesn't know the difference. If you can find one in the down pipes you may be able to remove it from under the hood instead of trying to get under the car in the JY

1970 240Z HLS30- 06026 For Sale (original)
No, not offended ZH. I guess part of my point is we really know nothing about this person, partly because he is new. He may be broke, he may not be. Also I wouldn't consider leaving 50% on the table squeezing a deal. $500, $1000 maybe... I would have real reservations about feeling like I took advantage of someone. That's partly what struck me all wrong about the video link we had a while back about the TV guy buying the yellow automatic that he wanted to flip. He beat the guy down on price when he knew the original price was more than fair.

Front injector bank not firing (1976 280Z)
Core charges are a problem for some and not for others. The core charge could be $2000 and I wouldn't care, if I needed the part. It will go on my credit card and I will very promptly return my core with insurance in this case. The $2000 will never leave my pocket and if I'm quick enough no interest either...
