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?

Wow. Thank you for sharing this. I will definitely steer clear of it. Sorry for your loss.

Looks right to me. Be careful on the passenger side tho. If you put it directly across from the drivers side mirror, you may not be able to see into it.

Personally, I'd go with the smaller 40s. I have triple 40s on my L24 and they are awesome. I have an upgraded electric fuel pump, adjustable fuel pressure valve too. You'll need to customize the Webber linkage or you'll find the triples will get hung up the longer you drive the car, the higher your idle RPM will climb. I'd also recommend ceramic coating your headers and the biggest possible heat shield under the triples. Without the heat shield, fuel will boil right out of the carb closest to the fire wall. Ask me how I know.

Excellent. Is that the tach with the wiring in back? And how much is that one? Also, was tach with the wiring fully functioning when It was removed from the Z? And lastly, do you have a closer pic of the inside of the gauge pod and plastic cover so I can see what kind of wear there is? Thanks.

Hello. Is the tach still for sale?

Very nice. Did you install an on/off dash switch to turn them on? Or do they go on when your headlights go on?

Thanks for all the suggestions. One thing I didn't mention above is that due to the fact I track my car regularly, I have installed plastic headlight covers to help my aero and prevent flying debris from taking out my headlights at over 100 mph. To that end, new high tech headlights would still need to beam through these scratched covers which also fog up a bit during the winter. So I'm really only concentrating on adding fog lights with protective plastic covers.

I agree. I'll check those out. Thanks.

Good option for sure. Thanks.

I want to add a pair of LED lights to the front of my 1970 240Z to help with night driving. I've removed the front bumper so I'd attach them to this custom mesh grill I fabricated and attached on top of the stock grill to protect my radiator and front oil cooler from debris. I track the car so in a perfect world, the lights would also have optional plastic covers avail. I had this set-up with my 914 years ago and it worked great. Looking for a pair that will throw the most light without drawing too much from my 60 amp alternator. Suggestions? Thanks!

A few people have suggested the Megajolt as a lower cost alternative. I like the look and overall convenience of the 123. Please tell me what you see as the big pluses the Megajolt has over the 123 besides the lower cost. Thanks!

Thanks. Very helpful.

Interesting. Why is that? People here don't like the system? Seems like there'd be more people here running Webers and Mikunis who could use the additional tuning information the 123 system delivers. But thanks for the info. I posted an inquiry on classiczcars.com too.

Just wondering if anyone's used the new 123igntion distributor on an L24? I'm running triple Weber 40s with an E88 head. Timing's always been a bit of an issue. Seems like a digital device I could tune via blue tooth on an iPhone app would be a game-changer. Thanks for your input.

I know this is a super old thread but is the transmission still available?
