Come ON guys! 8PM Pacific IS 11PM Eastern. All I'm saying is that (at least on the Pacific Coast) DirecTV customers don't have to wait until 11PM, they can watch it at 8PM, same broadcast as you Eastern guys. AND we'll also get it at Midnight ALSO (11-08-04 @ 3AM Eastern) and so should you guys (according to The History Channels website).

DirecTV broadcasts the East Coast feed of History Channel to all USA customers. i.e. We can view Alex the Grape at 5PM PST and/or 9PM PST, and the Z show at 8PM PST and/or Midnight PST on DirecTV. Cable service may be another story entirely. (it usually is) I'm using my DirecTV DVR/TiVO on screen programming to look it up also.

Generally, No. You must block off the oiler tube supply holes to maintain acceptable oil pressure. (FWIW, all modern cars that I am aware of use the internal oiling camshafts)

MikeW................How true!

Craig: In addition to removing the spray bar, you must replace the current camshaft with one that provides for internal oiling. (i.e. oil is pumped into the camshaft and each cam lobe has a tiny hole in it where oil under pressure gets squirted out to lube the rocker arms and everything else up in there. Advantage is that there is no longer a spray bar to crack and fall apart, robbing part of the cylinder head of life saving oil.

Dave: I can only speak for myself, but I wouldn't cut even 1 wire of my OEM harnesses to install ANY mod/upgrade/fix. Is there any way around having to do that? My wiring has lasted 33 years without any butchery, I don't want to be the oneto break the chain.

I have no experrience with doing this, but I do know that it can be & has been done by many people.

Just checked DirecTV / TiVo schedule and they have it listed as 8PM PST and Midnight PST with a 3 hour documentary about Alexander the Great in between the two showings

Exactly the point I was getting at without having to explain the electoral system to the world (who would probably think it as stupid as you and I do).

Sorry, I deleted it. It wasn't very good IMO. False Crap like "Katayama and Pinninfarina got together to decide how the car should look." :stupid: Also, The segment on the Z car and MSA show was barely 7 minutes long.

I may be wrong, but I think that lever on eBay would only work if your car was delivered with the "B" type trans. It doesn't look to have the extreme bend that was described by Alan T, and would be required if your car was delivered with the "A" type trans,

You are 100% correct!!!! Hi Rick: Sure you can blame more than the ones that voted for him. The voting was so close in the last election that a few thousand more votes in key states could have changed the outcome. It might have prevented the election being decided in the US Supreme Court. If an individual isn't smart enough to realize how important it is to vote, can anyone really believe that he/she is smart enough to make an informed, intelligent choice?

Will: See post #1 for dates http://www.zcarparts.com/ will have more info about next years (2005) show after the new year.

Heat is one of the things I look forward to when I attend. Our summer doesn't start for another month.

George won't. He only reads childrens books. Big words confuse him.

Strong enough to convince a Jury? What jury, a jury of uninformed idiots? It may raise questions, but nothing in that "film" ANSWERS those questions with data, or anythng that resembles "PROOF" of anything. It is as lame as that fake Monica Lewinsky billboard which has nothing to do with the current election (and has been seen all over the internet for more than the past 3 years). Unless you are claiming that only Democrats get Bl*w Jobs at work. Those of us who pay attention to the foibles of ALL government servants KNOW that isn't true.

They DO have pre-registration. BUT, people (cars) show up (i.e. arrive) on a random basis. They (MSA staff) run the cars into the show area and park them "in order" of arrival. One next to the other, next to the next, etc. I may be wrong, but I haven't noticed that they "measure" and mark out spaces for each vehicle. It seemed to me that they "eye-balled it" one after another, after another as they park the cars. Since the show is held on a public street, they have a limited amount of time to prepare the venue (and get some sleep) before the long day of the show. Except for the point about non Z cars being allowed, I think this is much ado about nothing. It's not like you have to walk MILES to see all of any particular model. Maybe it would be better if they assigned viewers a chair and all of the cars drove by you, in order by model. Come on, it's a car show, what is a little walking to see what is there to be seen. Look at what you are interested in, ignore the rest and move on. It's not that difficult to do.

I have to agree.

Spots are generally not assigned at MSA. It appears there are exceptions as I've seen some clubs parked together, Johnnie Gable and a few other notables appear to have prefered spots. If cars were separated by "model", owners of one (or two) models would be complaining about being parked in the boonies. MSA can't please everybody, so they do what works for their staff.

The water should not have gotten in there. The car may have a bad Hatch weather-seal. I would not recommend drilling holes to drain the water. I would suggest finding out how the ater is getting in and fixing that.

"IF" I am able to attend next year it would be good to meet you guys, but an aftershow dinner would not work for me as I would need to leave by 3 or 4PM in order to get home. A Pre-Show breakfast or something else may work better.

Well, it was there in December of 2001 when the link was posted. Guess you are a little too late to get it.

Z's should not be driven in Snow. As for V8 info..... www.Hybridz.org

Yes, it certainly is possible. You would need to disassemble the distributor to confirm. The vac advance plate is actually two plates with ball bearings sandwiche in between. Need to remobe advance diaphram and pull the advance plate to see if the balls are gone, or it is bound up by dried out grease.
