Thank you., JHM . Appreciate the offer. But if you had any kind of sloshing out on the street, then no, it won't work for the track. With a full tank and 40 tread wear tires up to temp at a place like Streets of Willow, every left turn with the car's physics fully loaded right sends a cascade of fuel out of the cap, down the fender, and gets me black flagged off. Darom -- I think that's the cap that's now out of stock. Unless you have a source for it we don't know about?

Yes. Thank you. Looking forward to his reply on that 2002 cap.

Okay. Sorry. But now I'm doubly confused. The out of stock locking cap you posted is for a 280Z, right? Where is the 2002 cap you purchased?

Thank you for your response but I'm a little confused... You bought a 280Z gas cap for your BMW? Or you bought one of those locking models for both cars? Either way, yes, still out of stock.

Yes. That's the set up I have now. But as I'm hearing from different folks in my Datsun world since I posted this, replacing the inlet/ring to something else is extremely pricey.

Have been driving my 1970 240Z on the street and track for 12+ years. I've replaced the seal and stock gas cap over the years. But getting the cap 100% screwed down is always a challenge. And there have been times I was sure it was fully closed but it wasn't and had fuel leakage down the rear fender during time trials. To that end, anyone out there installed a more modern/aircraft style fuel cap with a new fuel filler opening? Thanks.

Thank you. No. It appears my only option is to edit my post. But that's fine to leave it for history's sake. All good.

Thank you for your response. Looks like I closed a deal over the weekend for a block that's not far from my home here in L.A. Next question.. You know how to delete a post here? Thanks!

Sadly, I don't have the ability, equipment or manpower to pull an engine from a car. Thanks tho.

Thanks!

And in a perfect world, one in So Cal that I can pick up. Thanks!

Thank you but I've purchased a head.

Looking for a shop/mechanic to build a bulletproof bottom end for my 240Z for time trials and canyon carving. The goal is a dyno reading of 185 HP to the wheels running 91 octane with a compression ratio of 10:1 using my current triple Mikuni 44s from my L24. Head work to be done by a different shop unless your recommendation has built you an engine that can run at 100% for 30 minutes on So Cal high dessert tracks. Thanks!

Looking to build a bullet-proof L28 that runs on 91 octane with my Mikuni 44s. Thanks!

Hi. Is this still available?
