  1. Ha! That's what we do when we're young. "Do you know why I pulled you over? The speed limit is 45 and you were doing 10!"
  2. You can take the spring out of the new valves and stretch it to make it stronger. Are you sure your floats don't have fuel in them? Blow and suck on the fuel inlet bung to check their operation before you put them back on. With the pin up you can blow through, pin in you can not, You can polish the aluminum pretty good with this stuff,
  3. I set mine between the lid and the top of the floats. Make sure the tops of the floats look level or parallel with the lids when you are done.
  4. You want to get in on this @Tomcat and @dtshaw66 We can shoot straight up I-65 or plan out a more scenic drive, meeting up with the others. Big fun. It's sometime next summer. There'll be a lot more information as it gets closer, Middle Tennessee Z Club puts it on. Cliff
  5. That would be at MY house if I lived anywhere close. $3,000 plus another $3,000 and a lot of elbow work and that's a $10,000 car.
  6. I thought about the FM signal 3.5 adapter later this morning but didn't realize it would be mono. Putting new internals would be the thing to do in my opinion. Maybe later, I use a Bluetooth can speaker with my phone now and can take it from car to car. It's surprisingly loud and rechargeable through a USB plug. I'm thinking of wiring one into my orange 240 for charging abilities. That's the original radio out of my 01/72. Hitachi I suppose? Thank you for your help and ideas, I appreciate that.
  7. There's something in Nashville next year, maybe zcon 2017? I'll be there for sure, poolside.
  8. Camrys are a dime a dozen. That may be the thing to do.
  9. If I put a lift in they'd be one in my kitchen on one side and my bedroom on the other. Or I could dig out and have a "drop" instead of a "lift". Hire El Chapo's tunnel guys.
  10. Now that I'm able to explain, unable to get a reply box? I try to keep up but I know everybody else does to. So wealth has nothing to do with it, determination is all you need and this forum. Money helps but time and the right information is all I need. Cliff
  11. That's my thinking too but I'm getting over the line with this hobby. It has consumed my life, mind, money and storage space. Time to reevaluate for me. I'm not a wealthy person. It's nerve wracking to say the least. I want another boat too! Girls don't get it when I won't go somewhere but buy an aluminium flywheel, weirdos.
  12. I use a drill and a long metal rod down the distributor hole to the pump, no valve cover. Start on low or you'll get splattered when it fills all the lines. Works good I think. I've discovered some bad holes on my spray bar before start up thank goodness. The rod I'm using now came out of a new clothes washing machine I bought. It's purpose is to keep the the basket locked during shipping. Ground one end down similar to the pump/dizzy drive spindle.
  13. Seriously? For the 19th time, http://jarvas240z.blogspot.com/2013/01/electric-fuel-pump-installation.html
  14. Tabco still makes replacement panels.
  15. Awe you guys, we think alike. $4,500 maybe. If someone wants to get cheap I could put the OE N47 on it and keep the N42 I bought.
  16. It's been so hot this past week and my Camry sits in the heat. I must get rid of one of my Zs and free up a garage spot. 918 is staying, so either 110 or 305?
  17. I was thinking a high lift/duration cam would negate the pinging from pump gas? I hope so or I've bought the makings of a grenade.
  18. Questions for an audiophile. Is there a way for me to put a 3.5 plug on an OE 240Z radio? What is the red with blue stripe, the ground? I see the fuse on the power and the speaker wire so all that's left would be ground, right? I know how to turn one on/off and the volume knob makes it louder but not much else. Thanks for any help. Here's what the back looks like;
  19. Those look great! Glad your gremlin was an easy fix. I've got the scallop hubcaps on my 110, slotted aluminium are in storage. That red Z on the hubcaps look better to me also.
  20. Talking about real motorcycles got me thinking of @rossiz Where have you been Geoff? Hope you're doing well. Cliff
  21. I've got a set but I'm gonna see what Matthew does then copy-cat his build. I used the 8mm in my 2.4, balanced them at like 438 grams IIRC. Put APR bolts in. With an aluminum flywheel it spins up like a motorcycle, not a Hog, a real motorcycle.
  22. Wow that fresh paint looks fantastic! I like matching the spoiler to the car. That 2x4 holding up the bonnet scares me. Tie it up to a rafter overhead. That's how I remove mine and reinstall by myself.
  23. I had one helluva time with plug until I remembered I had a torch. My old fluid looked like Sunkist.
