Ron, Your Z looks fantastic. Mike D.

If your ever over in the East bay your welcome to stop by the house and check the wiring on the 71 as it is completely stock. Mike

Al, I have the fuse box cover in my 71 at home, if all you need to see is the cover I can bring it to work and you can swing by and take a look at it. I seemed to have misplaced my digital camera after the Rio Vista get together so I can't take any pics of it for you. Mike D.

Let me know what you want for it and when it will be available. I can drive over and pick it up if the price is right. Mike D.

Lone, Does the Alston main hoop fit into the seat belt pockets like my S&W, or does it mount above it? Looks good, Mike D.

I have an 8 point cage from S&W. The main hoop welds into the existing seat belt wells.It also requires notching to fit correctly. Mike D.

I bought one from MSA about 3 years ago for $750.00. I am sure they can still get them. Mike D.

Take it to most any radiator shop and have it boiled out. It is worth the $20.00 they will charge. After having mine boiled, I did some welding, then sealed. After all that, I installed a fuel cell. MikeD.

You can go to this site, it is a GTO replica site. www.gtorr.com Mike D,

Autometer sells Hall efect speedometer sensors for their electronic speedometers. You have to remove your existing cable drive in the trans and install their sender. MikeD.

Actually Wolverine is now a part of Crane Cams.There is a lot of useful info on there website. Mike D.

I was running a Comp Cams 292H. About 4 mos. ago on the way back from our first Bay Area Hybrid Z get together, I hear a ticking noise from the engine. As I get closer to my house it gets worse and then starts running like sh%*. To make a long story short,the cam had a flat lobe on #3 cyl. I now am using a Wolverine Blue Racer hydralic and everything is back to normal. Mike D.

According to my info it would be a 3.90:1. The ring gear will be stamped 39:10. It is always a good idea to check as rear ends do get swapped out from time to time. Mike D.

I had mine off a couple of weeks ago to change a flat cam, and it came right off. I had to remove the starter and drop the exhaust, but other than that it was very simple. As far as chrome oil pans, I would stay away, because they usually are a thinner gauge metal and always leak. Mike D.

Krugs sandblasting near the Oakland Coliseium or Hunter's sandblasting in San Leandro will do it for you. Mike D.

Welcome Glenn, I live in Pinole,a short distance from you. If you want to take a peek at my car, let me know and we can make arrangements. I modified my t-5 slave cylinder per the JTR manual and it is working fine so far. Talk to you later, Mike D.

That didn't work. Try this http://zdriver.com/articles/album.php?ID=67 I am glad I know more about cars than I do about computers.

I am in the white shirt checking out a Z at the Nor-Cal Hybrid Z meet Mike D. http://zdriver.com/articles/album.phd?ID=67

DavyZ, Bring your hoses down to my shop in San Leandro and I will cut them for you on my abrasive cut-off saw. Mike D.

I have made two pair of caliper brackets on my cnc machine out of 4140 steel. One pair is on my car, and alsil has a pair on his car. They are copies of the Maxima brackets. If someone is in dire need, I would be able to make them. They would use 82-83 calipers and rotors. I am not in the aftermarket buisness and only make these to help fellow Zer's. It would cost about $75.00 a pair. Mike D.

73 240Z 358 C.I. SB TRW 11:1 Forged pistons,Cheverolet"pink" rods Comp Cams 292H hudralic cam Weiand Team G Intake manifold, Holley 750 carb. L-98 corvette heads, ported and gasket matched. The trans. is a T-5 5 speed Front brakes are 4- runner calipers with 300zx rotors. Rear brakes are 83 280zx disc. Rear end is an r-200 with cv joint half shafts. Every bushing has been changed to urethane. Exhaust is from flowtech block hugger headers through 2-1/2 pipe into two flowtech mufflers. My immediate future plans are to move to the interior now that it is running, and then decide what I want to do to the exterior. Later, Mike D.

Be sure that the bleeder valves on the calipers are on the top. It will make a difference when you are bleeding them. Mike D.

Dan, I am using a 7/8 bore "short" clutch m/c with my t-5/camaro slave cyl. and it works fine.Check your rod adjustment to make sure you are getting full travel. Mike D.

Welcome Jumbo.HybridZ is one of the best sites I have been associated with, and I have been with more than a few. If you ever are in my area (Pinole)let me know and I will show you my money pit. Mike

I have machined 2 pair out of 1-1/4" thick 4140 steel plate. The extra time it took for machining is worth it for peace of mind. Mike in San Leandro
