Malt licker

$1,600 on ebay! Finders fee my arse. I'm gonna get a Viper out of the deal. Then I can rape some apes.

I have the wide B that came in my early '77 and like it a lot. After you get it back in the car put Redline manual fluid in the tranny and Redline 90 for the differential. It magically disappears those whining noises. Like Captain Corona says, drive it and I think you'll be happy too. That's a good transmission. 240260280's tech tips on the transmission is where I learned that stuff. I bought my Redline off amazon.com since nobody stocks it around here. You'll have some left over if you get enough for the amounts in the FSM. http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/transmission.htm

Anything but loganberries!

It's "close ratio" meaning the throw is closer from gear to gear. Read this for some answers but I remember the Borg Warner needing some special shift rod to work. Bending the older one or welding something? I can't remember. https://datsunzgarage.us/borg/

Yeah they're worth a little bit more than the later "scallops" is what I've always heard them called. I need 4 of those, restored to the level of your motor rebuild. HeHe...

Has to be blue to work for me? If yours is blue I apologize for my phone's color blindness.

@Randalla

There's also a switch/plug in type thing below the brake fluid masters that can kill those lights. Good luck! Need brake lights.

Some good in general info in this thread.

Looks like they "collapsed" 2 of the ten. I'll count them Saturday. I need to rotate my tires anyhow. ?

I have an old junkyard that has quite a few left too. Story is the owners daughter drove them around like go-karts when she was a kid so he bought all he could and got them running for her to trash around.

I would get this D hubcap and hang it on a wall. They are from the beginning, the first cars.

Mine were cut by the OPs mechanic in Huntsville. It rides rough, stiff I guess. They called it "clapsing the coil". It looks good but is harsh driving it. If I had good struts it'd be okay I bet.

The 2.4s have a different pin position. The aftermarket ones can be filed down to make them work. That's what I did but Chas/ Eurodat says the Nissan ones are available and fit good. High dollar though.

I love my Tilton aluminum flywheel! It turned my 240 into my favorite death trap I no longer have, GSXR750, my family wore me down and I sold it. MSA has the Fidanza for under $400. https://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/classic22a/21-2021 I don't think I would go back to the adjustable ones that came on the 240 originally. When I switched to a 5 speed I put a Beck-Arnley self adjusting slave cylinder on mine. It could be "burnt"? They get hot and turn a kinda blue color. A machine shop can cut that out and I would think any, almost any, should be able to lighten your OE flywheel. Good luck whichever way you go. Cliff

Do you still have the OE style 240 slave cylinder? You can adjust the chatter out if it has the threaded push rod. Also the clutch pedal itself can be adjusted to a certain length.

My mistake. It's the 240s that need a different plug-in. The ZX one in a '77 instructions below thanks to "Blue" @240260280. And from your other post that Red and tacky by Lucas is my favorite. I use a grease gun though so I've never bought any in a tub but I assume they have it? http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/alternatorswap/index.html

What are you going to do with the alternator? Do our '77s need adapters for the ZX alternators? Thanks!

Are you stuck on a cruise boat? Call me if you are. I can entertain for a good hour.

The wife too!

Here's the best I could do how it's parked. Luckily I'm lazy and haven't boxed it up yet. I'm mailing it tomorrow. Anyhow...

Well crap, now I have to take the cover off! Back soon...

I somehow figured a way to test mine by blowing air into it and listening for leaks. It did not leak so I moved on to the valve. It leaked air!

Agree with Zed Head. I can't remember reading of a leaking core. It's always the valve or loose hoses. It's a pretty tough job too. I did mine just for defrosting the windshield.
