Looking good . Any photos of the build ? I recently purchased a wrecked 02 Z28 . Debating to which car , 91 ZX or 78 Z , gets the V8 swap . I did this swap on my 83 ZX 2 yrs. ago .

Need to check all your basics . Spark , fuel , compression .

I like it . Here's an unfinished spoiler that i made from the rear bumper filler .

You can bench test the starter . I would try to tap on the starter with hammer first ( tap while cranking ) .

As Donovan stated , we need more info. Was the car running fine before ?

How you did test your pump wiring ? One should be 12 v and the other should be ground . If both wires show 12 v then you don't have ground .

Check at the switches . You have to seperate them , turn signal and headlight/wiper switches . Good luck .

Do you have photos of your tank swap ? I just purchased a 2002 Z28 and getting ready to do my swap .

Does the washer pump run too ? If it does , you need to remove and inspect short to washer pump wiring .

They do smog test on 82 model in NV , wow . I'm glad i live TX , safety only on 25yrs or older . The car looks clean , good find . Hope you got a good deal . Wondered if Gredy still have cat-back for it . Fact. pipe is 3" or larger , i think .

Thanks . Trying for the new mustang look .

Check your plug wires , you might have them crossed ( 2 and 4 ) .

I don't see how the engine can run for that length of time without the fuel pump running . When problem occurs again , pull the vac. hose off your fuel press. reg. to see if any fuel comes out . It's poss. you might have interm. problem with a leaky reg. . Good luck .

From what can tell the red/black wire sends ground , not power .

What year are we working on ?

Did this problem start after you installed the HID lights ? Trying to pin point your problem , I would rec installing the OE lights to see if that fix it .

The green should be 12v. when the fuel pump is running and the black wire should be the ground signal from the ECM side ( pin 108 ) . Check to make sure there is no power to the green wire when key is in off position . Check the black wire to make sure it is not shorted to ground by disconnecting both connectors ( air reg. and ECM ) and check for continuity to ground . Good luck .

Thanks for the reply . Guess i have to do whatever is needed as i did with my ZX conversion . Would be nice to know where to pound in the trans. tunnel .

The Z28 is an automatic car . I figured the auto trans. is larger than the standard . Would like to know where and how much of an enlargement to the trans. tunnel is required . photos would be nice . Thanks .

I purchased this 78 Z last year and it's time for her to join her sister , 83 280ZX with LS1 and 6 spd trans. I recently purchased a wrecked 02 Z28 with an auto . Question for those with auto conversions , how much room do i need to make to the trans. tunnel to clear the trans. and where if any ? Thanks .
