That's exactly what he's doing, reposting other peoples cars! Now he says he lives in Michigan and gave me another number, 3 total. I googled the last one and got this, http://240zforsale.com/category/united-states/alabama/ Friggin bastinge

Brass Valve Seats & Lapping
A redneck trick I learned is put the valve in an suck on the port opening to make sure it seals. You'll have a big ole black ring around your mouth but it works. Lap them with the straight compound then add some water to it to make it finer for the final lapping. You'll hear the difference. I took the suction cup off my lapping handle and found a brass fitting for it then chucked it up in my cordless drill. Made it alot quicker to get that smooth sound you want.

EGR and manifold removal tips-78 280Z
Remember Zed, heat from cast iron equals vapor lock potential. Just saying that. Headers clean up the engine bay too. The OE manifold does flow just as good from what I've read but $250 ain't bad for ceramic coated header. $.04 now.

Brass Valve Seats & Lapping
They look beat down. You should have them cut out and replaced with steel seats. I think I paid around $100 for my e31. What head is that? No protruding plug mound. Is it an n42?

See if you can find a n2 an intake, before egrs or n47 and a block off plate. I got mine for $40. I know your budgeting but msa header and 2.5" premium exhaust is $500 & you'll love it. It'll flow more air so you can open up the head's ports to match the gasket. Round them out or "bugle" shape the ports. More air moving through is always best. The motors are a air compressor more or less so the more flow the better. Stock is good for efi. They don't like mods because of the ecu stays the same. My $.02

1 too many in the family
I'm wanting to do a building and fill it with my tools. $25 an hour for using it. Very popular in bigger cities but we need one here too. I have people that come to my house with their weedeaters and cord, they pay me $10 to wind it on the bump feed head. Takes 2 minutes but I am sick of people banging on my garage door at 8am Saturday. I get still get lucky sometimes and bring home "Scully's catch of the day" Friday night. I'd rather stay in the bed than wrap cord.

Fuel tank repair
That's what I think as well. No coating is necessary for 20 years or so. The red kote I use is was for diesel fuel mainly, off road diesel has a lot of ethanol.

I know it Blue. I hate doing this but there's more around here I can get. I just got sick of my DD sitting in the 100 plus heat. Father's Day I went to my Dad's church, buttoned up and tucked in, tie and all. When I got in that 200 degree car I made my decision. When I can add on there's more down here in the South and they have know idea what they're worth. Ive got my eye on a nice #112 '72 for $3,000. I'm looking for land now to put a metal building on. Baby steps!

It has some surface rust, Florida car. The heater core was bypassed when I bought it, may just need a new valve and hoses. The dealer installed a/c hasn't been updated to 134a and I'm just trying to find a good owner. I NEVER sale, just hoard, so I'm not looking to make much money. I want my money back plus storage fees. Search "what's it worth" for the rust pictures. March 5, '16.

Fuel tank repair
I put Gorilla Taped over the ends of all my tubes coming out of the tank. After emptying the coating out I blew through them with around 90psi of air. Waited 5 or 10 minutes and hit them again to be sure. Worked good for me.

I replied back this morning at 6:30am and just now checked that inbox, no replies, so I think I scared him away. "Listen Closely!" you don't talk to someone selling something you want like that.

He lives in an apartment and his lan-line number has the exact toll free number. He starts the email by saying "listen close" that scares me a little, I worked for an attorney's office doing collections. I have a feeling for scams.

I've got a guy wanting my phone number and says he'll pay me $8,000 and I'm only asking $6,950. I google his phone number and it comes up Ontario. What's his angle here, I can "conversate [sic]" just as well through email. I don't get it, are there Nigerian princes in Ontario?

EGR and manifold removal tips-78 280Z
Rebello heads have all studs replaced with the bigger size. I just did the first and last. My MSA header already had those holes enlarged. It's a very common upgrade. With the head on a work bench, R&R those studs will be 1,000 times easier.
