I noticed that to. My 240 cut out is a lot smaller than Phillips red car and the MSA black and white. I'll look at the 280 tomorrow and snap a picture. I'm thinking it's bigger too. -
My '77 does it with EFI. '72 with carbs doesn't. Both have the 6 to1 header with 2.5" exhaust. Something fun to do (for me) is lower gear drag down the backside of a mountain, it sounds like a shooting range.

I use magnets instead of tape. There's so many on there now I fear the fan is going to stop rotating.

How thick are those vented rotors? If I wanted the "hollow" or vented rotors would I need those Wildwood calipers? Thanks!

That's leather interior right? Car should sale just don't get in a rush. It will find it's next owner.

Hate to keep bugging you but my memory comes and goes. I had to cut the top hole or two off the rubber on the rear hanger to get it tucked up in there. It wasn't easy either, I cut it with a hacksaw.

This is an older thread but if you want Weber 40's I'm thinking of selling mine with a Cannon intake. The SUs are fine for my old arse and keep up with my mods plus I still have the mechanical fuel pump. They'll be on ebay soon and I'll post the link.

Sorry it didn't work out for you. It was a major PITA to tuck it up nicely, many cuss words and beers plus the use of every spare tire jack that I had to hold it in place. You could run by a muffler shop and see what they'd charge to tweak the muffler. It shouldn't be much, you've done the hard part already. The sound makes up for the small stuff, in my opinion.

Better picture.

Yes, sharp car. I don't think you'll have trouble selling it, there's a lot of young folks looking to buy their first Z and that would be a great one to start off with. Do you have it listed on our classifieds also? Best of luck.

@240260280 has gotten a new image for his tech page.

Your desire to drive Redbird as a daily driver has been astounding to me, you always come up with a plan that works and saves money. You've also made a bunch of friends, although foul mouthed men like me we are friends nonetheless. -
Here's what I went by,

Jeff G told you that about a year ago.

Hold the phone, I was backwards. The centered side should connect to the S pipe. The offset should be at the bottom of the rear side. Still angled 1 to 7 though. Sorry about that, it's confusing as hell.
-
Actually 1oclock is where the S pipe connects and it should tilt like 1 to 7 looking towards the rear of your car from the front of the drivers rear tire. The output is centered. That's how both of mine worked out after a lot of reading (mostly looking at pictures). I can post photos when I'm home with my PC, tomorrow morning.

My muffler slightly touched the underside of my car, rattled at idle only. The offset should be at the top of the muffler where the "S" pipe connects.

His fusible link for the pump maybe about to burn in half, or need the terminals cleaned.

It keeps you young at heart to, desire that is. Jai will out live us all. I like to think I'm keeping mine as "low mileage" as possible but actually I'm so lazy I jump in my Camry instead of removing the car covers on my Zs.
-
And these work good holding them in place, instead of the zip ties that come with them. ATV axle boot straps from a motorcycle shop.
-
If I live another 20 years there'll be one of these in my Z. I don't see how you do it Jai. Getting in is easy, just fall in, but climbing out is tough.
