Thanks For all the help guys! Sounds like I need a polishing kit. Because I also need to polish my triple webbers. (that's gonna be a timely job). What kit of motor tool kit should I start off with? I want to buy a polishing kit, home depo? what brand do you guys suggest? I don't want to spend very much! but need to do a good job!what are the things I need to buy and how much should I pay for? Thanks Guys!! Happy Hoildays guys! Ker

I just took my 73 240z Valve cover off, I was trying to polish it, but it just doesn't brighten up?? 1) I first used paint thether to take off the paint. 2) then I used the wheel cleaner to take off the dirt and old paint. 3) then I rubbed Mother's Bullet polisher($11, the best in the store). and rubbed it so hard, till all the black oilly stuff came out.... and clean it with a clean colth. and it just doesn't brighten up? Do I need to use sand paper first to get it smooth first? or what? I need help bad!! what do I need to do to get that factory polished look? Thanks guys!

Hey Guys: Thanks for all your advise and help! The answer the question for brake vac. I'm sure it's broken, becuase it doesn't break well, has sound of air when I step on the pedel. RPM goes up a lot as well. can you scan the instruction off of the Chilton's Guid for me? Thanks. One more question about body/paint , my 240z has the side markers (door bumpers) and kick plates on the bottom edge of the door I was thinking of taking those off and keep it off after I pain the car, but that will leave a lots of little unwanted holes, which kills the eye. is there a way I can cover it up before I paint it? if I go to a body shop and tell them to match the orginal Silver using the paint code, would they be able to match it? or what kind of matching methods they use? again, thanks a lot guys!!

Thanks for the advice! I don't know much to start off with, so there isn't much I can do, but I'm trying to learn as much as I can right now. because I get more of a kick when it's all done by myself, but I would still need lots of help at the moment. my car has a l28 block with a 240 head, 4 speed, with suspension tech springs, and 2.5 inch piping and aftermarket exhase. that's about it. Talking about the 4 nuts for the brake vac, on the inside of the firewall... (Man! I saw one in the junk yard, would still need lots of help at the moment. I didn't have the right tools as well, I spend an hour on it and still didn't take it off.) Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, I have a front/ rear sway bars which need help installing as well. thanks

Hi everyone: I have a 240Z and need help on the following things. 1) Need help on putting in 40mm SK racing carbs triple webbers. 2) Take off/install the Brake Vac. 3) Advice and planning for future projects. Car starts but doesn't run well (I think is becuase of the old flat top carbs needs to be changed), so would need someone very good with the Z car. will have to local to the Monrovia, CA area.. I need help fast so please send me a message. willing to pay for labor and parts. Thanks ~K
