Thanks Alan, Any ideas on the 230HP detail in item #11. It seems only the 380A-II engine was pushing this amount in 1967. Was this some special cam'd or race S20 engine?
Where is 27?
So.... after seeing and hearing and smelling the 1965 R380-I with triple DCOE 42 & 200HP (actually 45 in Austin). I am guessing the last test case #11 above had the R380A-II engine with triple DCOE-45 engine to give the listed 230HP? The 160HP base S20 was not produced until 1968 so it would have made sense to try the end-of-line R380A-II engines for F U N ! Kats what is your guess? The "G8B" label looks a lot like "GR8" typo. Do you think they tested the Prince engines in the Z in 1967? Or A/B680X Engine and Transmission?
Looks interesting. White w Blue is pretty. The other White & Blue ate VINS around 360 and 370 so I would guess the VIN to be around there. The seat belt clips seem like from a very early 69 along with the hand throttle however the plastic bellows/elbows that route air into the top rail in the engine compartment are from a later Z along with the horizontal defoggers and hood bumpers. Lots of good parts there but the body is ripe. Dash looks nice. $1000 hubcaps $1000 radio $3000 dash $1000 center console $3000 engine and transmission $9000 car as is.
The one you have is great for where the metal and seal meet when first installing. Once installed, fix any problems with the one I suggested. It is especially nice when sealing the seal to the glass.
Just bought the program for the April4-12, 1970 NYC International Automobile Show. 208 pages and it comes with a special 8 page Datsun 240z insert. I'll scan and post to this thread when it arrives.
Run this along the rubber. It is clear and flows. Stick the nose between the glass and rubber on the outside and run along the 2 sides and bottom. Scrap away the extra after it cures. https://www.permatex.com/products/adhesives-sealants/permatex-flowable-silicone-windshield-glass-sealer/
There are devices to prevent too much vacuum on deceleration by limiting how fast the throttle valve will snap shut. It will pull oil past the rings and valve seals if it closes too fast at high rpms. I'm not sure if burning oil pops in the exhaust but it may be worth looking at.
