How much wattage can stock headlight wiring support?
@Captain Obvious In Your spare time😀.Would you be kind enough to create a rough schematic of your relay install. Also curious on where you located the relays. I’m waiting on other parts to arrive so this would be a good time to go ahead and do the headlight relay upgrade. No Hurry of course!!

Should I Replace Clutch Master Cylinder?
Inexpensive to replace, Easy to get to with the booster out and your already under the dash side by side with the pedals. With it being dry the slave cylinder could be leaking as well. Pull back the dust cover and take a look.

Tranny leaks
@EuroDat, I recently replaced the seals on the tail shaft/shifter rod on my 71B transmission 83ZX. The o’ring was the only seal visible on the outside of the speedometer assembly. The seal that you are referring to above was not visible. Is the small seal part of the speedo assembly itself?

Have you checked ZCD? Used their stainless lines on my upgrade. Don’t have a measurement for you. Same lines they provide in their kit.

It’s the 10” booster from a 79zx. 1980 & 81are supposed to be the same but I can only say from experience the 79 is a true bolt on upgrade without modifications.

They had to find a core for me. Might want to check, there getting rare. Even if you don’t use it right away. Should have taken a side by side picture of them to show you the difference.

Are you looking to upgrade the booster? From what I’ve read on different posts was that made a big difference with the willwood as well. Something to do with the brake pedal travel being shorter.

Weird hanging RPM issue
Yes Sir. I notified ZCD with the diagram and notes to pass along/add to the sales post when purchasing the plate to help others. Guess it didn’t make the press!

Weird hanging RPM issue
Here is a post that Captain Obvious contributed that fixed my same issue. I plugged both holes although only one is necessary with tapered rubber plugs from Ace hardware. Covered each with high temp silicone. These can be removed if necessary if needed. Here’s the diagram. Thanks CO!!

Have you thought about using the 15/16 Mc off the 79zx? I upgraded to the 79 booster and master cylinder on my 78. Bolted right in with clearance. The booster is the same depth but larger in diameter. Haven’t had the car on the road yet but what I’ve read it performs well.
