I don't know where you'd find that coupling but when I did mine I used brass "PEX" fittings. Any plumbing supply or hardware store should have them. https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&rlz=1C1BOFA_enUS494US494&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=3%2F4%22%20pex%20coupling

That's about as Obvious as I've ever read, thank you Captain!

I was going to do an E88 head but decided to go ahead and use the E31 that already had the 1.73 & 1.38 valves installed. For some reason I thought I'd save it?? Madkaw I'd love to see your's. I can get the valves out pretty easy now if I need to for the unshrouding. Might go ahead and put some shorter valve seals on there anyway, just in case the reground cam needs the room. I just got my Z Therapy rebuild kit yesterday, yea! Winter projects are moving along just fine.

I can't seem to find any old threads, "404 Not Found", keeps showing up this morning but there's alot of info on that. I cleaned my tank and replaced all those hoses a few months ago. Mine were original and hard as a rock, all cracked on both ends. There's only 1 you can get to easily, 1/2" that comes out the top driver's side of the tank. The others are a PITA but doable with the tank out. here's the only one I can find, http://www.classiczcars.com/topic/24181-rating-the-factory-240z-fuel-vent-hoses/ I think replacing the hatch gasket would be my 1st attempt at getting the smell out of the cabin.

I've been smoothing the intake and exhaust ports and will be matching port sizes as soon as my gasket comes in. Does it look like the valves were unshrouded before the bigger valves were installed? I don't know myself, all I've done is read and looked at pictures so I'm guessing they were? EDIT: the E-31 was with a project car I bought so I know nothing about what was done before I got it. Thanks for looking, Cliff

I bought a Cardone remanufactured distributor from amazon.com that didn't have any numbers on the moduale. The only ones I've seen are '79 to '81 which is the E12-80 that has only one 2 spade connection on the top. The '82 & '83 has the E12-93 which has the top connection as well as another one on the side. The 2nd connection was for some sensors or something, not sure. http://www.classiczcars.com/topic/36786-zx-distributor-adapter/ look at post #11 for pictures http://community.ratsun.net/topic/56630-e12-92-retard-or-no-retard/ post #2 for pics too.

Goats! And to think I get pissed when a cat gets on one of my cars.

With only 2 terminals on the black box, I'd guess ZX E12-80 too. Should have one of these numbers stamped on the side somewhere. D6K8-02 D6K8-03 D6K8-05 D6K8-06 D6K8-07 D6K8-22

Well now that Maxwell House is turning the gears and not Bud Light, I see this maybe isn't too good an idea.

I've read where you like high RPMs Mr Beck. That's what I'm after.

You're the Man! 7,500 RPM! I always forget about that ozdat thing. Oh yeah, I have an E31 with big valves newly installed. I'm thinking of a Schieder regrind on my oiler B cam. Top end of their stage II, almost 3rd class specs, and all the other components. Schneider guy was a really helpful.

This is my 1st upload on the new design, it's different. Thickness is 3/16".

Yes! I'm bored. Give me a minute.

I'm trying but I think I must be missing something. All those numbers are causing (helping) me to drink more. L28 block L24 crank L24 rods L28 pistons

Ha! That's what I was thinking too. Probably a Depends moment.

Wow! He's got a set of huge macadamias.

My Standard Motor Products FJ707Ts fuel injectors were made in Greenville, South Carolina. They're headquartered in Hong Kong though. There's also a huge BMW car manufacturing facility there so I guess that's the reason. Hondas & Hyundais built in Alabama too, "bizzaro world".

Thanks again Mike, it is better every visit! I just figured out where all my uploads were, "My Media".

Do the '70s have splash pans? My '77 does but the '72 does not. I'd like to put one on there though.

My '72s have two 1 piece yellow ones. '77 has 2 folding orange chocks.

When I checked FORUM on the left under NEW CONTENT then bookmarked that page, it goes straight to all the newest post when I select Classic Z cars from my Bookmarks. It's the same now as the older version, opens with NEW TOPICS. I too think we could use more colors than grey though. It all kind of blends in, sorta bland looking.

Jeff have you made it back? I have put the front and rear in an account on futofab.com and shipping for both all the way down here is only $62.

Thank's for that side of the coin. I'm about to get new bumpers for my 240 and they're CHEAP but look to be well made. They're supposedly made in Taiwan. China, Taiwan. Six for 1, half of a dozen for the other, kinda thing.

A cabled back scratcher would be nice also.

I disassembled my 1st cylinder head and enjoyed the process. It's very OCD friendly, steps done in order and detailed for reassembly. P79 off a ZX motor I bought for $200. I need the cam for a regrinding. Cheap, $15, spring compressor worked good after I pulled the cam towers off.
