  1. Don't want to start a pissing match but there are a number of classic Z's that are just as quick. Big Phils from hybrid Z comes to mind. I think he's making about 472 Hp in a car that weights 1400#'s less. Can't hardly keep it in a straight line even with limited slip. On a different note... I do like your car, 69 is my favorite year. I was working on 73' for my son until he lost interest. Sold it in pieces...
  2. Thanks Time to start my plating up again soon...
  3. Where did you get the fiber wheel? What grit is it?

    Bad ground occurred to me too. It does seem far fetched but who knows... Wires, cap & rotor don't change it, so: plugs or distributor/pertronix
  5. Yes, yellow zinc...
  6. Other members don't live as close to the equator...

    ^^^ Agree "new" does not necessarily mean good...
  8. If you are referring to the red wire by itself that is punched through the grommet, that is another Previous Owners hack...
  9. I really like those. Machined from aluminum, did you anodize after wards?

  11. That's good to know. I wish I would have known this the last time I did some...
  12. I didn't read the description but I don't see any filters in that auction at that price...
  13. Why not just leave the AC connected and move it out of the way? I am not sure that's possible but it is what I have done in the past on other vehicles. Then pull the engine if needed...
  14. Don't forget the air filters that are included in Site's carbs. I can't seem to find similar cast filters. At a minimum I would think that adds $150-200 to the deal

    Been there, done that. Although I ended up in cuffs...

  17. already gone
  18. It is clean looking with the engine bay seams filled...
