L28 w/ SU Carb intake manifold vacuum leak
The p90 has the square exhaust like a proper 240 head but the notches for efi on the intakes. Get a Nissan from your local dealership if possible. They're the best.

Burnt Oil In Valve Cover: How Dirty is Too Dirty
It needs to be to the left a little. But #1 should be back some more. Looks like you went a little too far. I think you're okay. Like Zed said the oil will clean up with new change and adjustment.

I followed @240260280 tech tips on my '77 and it worked like a charm. https://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/distributor/index.html

Yeah, he likes to ride horse face. Not too often though, Big-Mac attack I imagine. Walking horse is what we call them down here.

The p79 is most common. That p90 head needs early valves and a pretty deep cut, .40 I think? https://datsunzgarage.us/p90/

Name The Part. Area: Valve Train
I've read casting plugs. But that's what I do. So take that with a grain of salt. To add to that. They had to make those holes in the casting of the aluminum heads, with sand or something? Anyhow that's the reason.

Have they got to you? I guess because of our high number post they think we know about Zs and could help promote them on here. I told them that I didn't have time to deal with it.

COVID-19
Our hospitals are full here and now the intensive care folks are going to Birmingham. Our air ambulances fly by visual rules which is following the interstates. As a bird flys that's about 2 miles from my house. I hear those choppers now better than Radar on M.A.S.H. Every night they fly back and forth. Nick Saban had an IV infusion. I've not heard that one yet but he is the president of Alabama so anything to save the king. They play L.S.U Saturday and that's where he coached college ball before here. Pretty big rival so he's not sitting at home for this game. Maybe he got clean blood for the negative test results?

Well my caffine level is low too! I apologize to bat.com. I read the title and it says BAT so I ASSumed that's where it came from. Dummy me. I got that notification off google, random bat submiision search. Does that clear it up, compadre? I remember Beverly Hills Auto now. They had that high dollar convertible we picked apart.

No thank goodness but I've read their "what makes us better than anything else" bio about their business startup. Seems they've gotten away from that on this blue catastrophe. And we did have to get approval on my Dad's Chattanooga Choo Choo El-Camino after he passed away and my step monster had a clearance sale.

240 series 1 su bowls
This is bothering me. I don't see there's any way to put the bowls on wrong. He's got to be talking about the lids.? The front carb lids have longer ears that attach the floats. They did this to compensate for the fuel sloshing back on acceleration but that was the 3 screw domes @heyitsrama spoke of earlier. Here's a pic I posted to show someone the different length valves. You'll see the mounting difference for the floats. Good luck figuring out your issue or non-issue I guess.

Head gasket leak. Any video tuts?
If you decide to tackle it I will suggest raising the front with ramps or jack stands. It'll help your back. After about an hour I can't take anymore bending over. Also cover those thin fenders with towels or those plastic/rubber magnetic fender covers. You'll need a few special tools also. The timing chain wedge, head bolt allen socket, cam sprocket socket, torque wrench and few others I cant think of. Best of luck on whatever you decide to do.
