I haven't seen the orange car,but as far as it being an automatic,my car came off the line 36 cars ahead of this one.Does anyone know if they produced a run of automatics or just hit and miss

Your hardest repair will be the inner fender,shock tower,radiator support and possibly frame rail.

what about the positive b terminal on the dizzy module,is it spliced with red from MSD and the switched 12v source?

Anyone know which wires from MSD go to b and c terminals on module of the dizzy?

hey John,what's your VIN,my friend has a 240 with a 2/73 birthday,just thinking they maybe close in production #'s

Also if it were internally regulated, would the t connector be available on the back of new alt.?

Jim,what do you mean by polarizing?

I have a 72 240,new battery,alternator,voltage regulator.Car is overcharging, also when brake lights are on or I turn on blinkers,needle pegs the gauge.Any ideas?

I've posted this question before but had to many other things going on to check anything.Some of the responses were that the height of the piston was a positive deck of .016" to .020".I haven't put a micrometer on it to get an accurate measurement but I used a feeler gauge(definitely not the greatest idea)and came up with a height of about .013".I put stock head gasket(new)on today to find out that valves are hitting pistons.Engine specs are stock crank,stock rods,87mm flat top pistons,stock head,.005" shave off deck height

does anyone know what year 240 this engine serial number,021148 came in?Any info is helpful

Definitly Sport Max

I been down Lombard street many times.I don't know if you were thinking you could go down it at speed cause you certainly can't.(too tight and only a block long,the famous part of it anyway)But in general it is a cool street to visit.

I got my 77 4 speed for $50

I have some 240 rods for sale if you need some.

I used a 72 auto drive shaft with a 77 4-speed

performance,what the Z was made for

check the filter above the float bowl on each carb,had the same problem with mine

same for me as well,no difference in the length,although my auto drive shaft has a splined ring around it at rear of it so that you can I assume disengage the shaft from the differential,never seen anything like it before.

I'm sorry guys,it is a 12-80 off a 81zx,just wandering if a hotter coil would help at all,or locate the problem first I guess.

I did remove the stock 240 coil and used the stock coil from the 82 zx.Also the balast resistor was removed.

after installing 82 zx distributor and coil on my 240,I developed a miss in the idle.Is there a chance that the module is not working properly?I thought that they're were either good or not.Any help would be great and any upgrades other than the obvious MSD.

hey Mike B,yours and mine are the closest I've seen,704 apart,5/72 #84699

anyone know what the production month or casting numbers for early and late E88 heads.I have a 240 with production date of 5/72 with original engine on engine stand.I have a L26 engine with E88 head as well as 71 SU's.Any difference in the heads?Thanks for any and all help.

Rods Datsun Parts, 408-448-3277 in San Jose,may be a little expensive though

I agree with Lance,just put the same size on my 240,too tight for anything larger
