I applaud your attempts to get full length headers to fit, but I hope your going to reinforce the shock tower's with some roll bar material? You've just eliminated most of the strength of the chassis by doing this!

Chequered flag sells 39 spline versions, but they are $830 a pair , plus you have to get the matching companion flanges to run them at $490. so you be in $1,320. That looks like a clean break! I hope you get your car back together soon! Now I'll have to inspect my MM axles as well just in case!

Tom, you do NOT want to skimp on your brakes for obvious reasons. dont mess around with brakes without a GOOD understanding of what you are doing! Your putting your car, yourself and others in harms way. My suggestion is to get new lines made to size with the appropriate fittings size's , the wilwood is a american standard size threads and the originl dastsun fiting sizes are metric. here is a great thread that explains it all! I don't mean to sound like a A___E but the few dollars and hours your trying to save is just not worth it. That's my 2 cents! http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/102754-a-one-inch-diameter-brake-master-cylinder-for-the-s30-z-cars/

I have a set of S&S headers that I no longer use. I can sell them to you. PM me!

I've done about 3 wiring jobs since i finished my z about 5 years ago, so i have a little bit on knowledge on the z. I to used a hotrod universal 21 circuit wiring harness very similar to the "painless" harness except it was about half the price. I'm going from memory here, but the steering collum wiring from the z was the most difficult part. The stock light switch actually grounds the circuit to the headlights, there is a constant POSITIVE 12 volts to one side the head lights. I installed 2 relays to take the load off the switch. Other than that everything else was just following the wiring's location written on the wires themselves. My first full wiring job was my Z and that took me 2 weeks of on and off time.The last job I did was for a 69 chevelle that took me 2 full days. I know it looks intimidating , but just separate the workload down to smaller sections. Work one circuit at a time and you'll get through it. I hope that helps!!!

Hi have a V8, wide tires and small after market steering wheel , add a bad shoulder to the mix and it all contributed for me to install PS.

It's bee a while since i been on the sight , but I have a couple of questions? when you say you have a stock slave cylinder, what year and car is it out of? What is the clearance between your throwout bearing and the clutch fingers? If your clearance is too tight the clutch and flywheel assembly will heat up and expand, taking up that clearance. If my memory serves me right there should be about 0.100 to 0.300 clearance. But don't take my word for it, refer to the clutch manufactures specs.

I seem to remember that the camaro hub was used along with the disc. I found the post. http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/48638-11-34-rotors-with-5-lug-hubs/

I have the same issue with my t56 and it was brand new trans! I think its an inherent design "flaw".

Thanks for posting more pix peej410! it just gives more enthusiasm to continue with my own project! Thanks again.

Hi Peej410, do you have any new progress pix and or video's posted. I'd like to hear how your hedders look and sound?

Nicely done! Im in the process of gathering stainless steel supplies for my set! You gave me some ideas!!! Post more pix if you have any more!

I've been looking as well with no results! it seems that the rebuilder's have a monopoly on the repair kits! If by chance you happen to find an outlet please post! Thanks!

Sorry I meant to say " I wouldn't feel bad" darn auto correct strikes again on my phone!

I would feel bad. Unless you work with holley carburaters all the time, different gaskets look very much alike! Its very easy to miss very minor differences!

Go through the net I found this site! it has a boat load of cut away pictures of the inner workings of holley carbs! Im bookmarking this! Here you go! http://www.oldcarmanualproject.com/manuals/Carbs/Holley/H4V-4150-60-80/index.html

This article has some great pictures and captions! It might help. But I personally havn't experienced what your dealing with? http://www.superchevy.com/technical/engines_drivetrain/accessories_electronics/sucp_1004_holley_4150_carb_rebuild/viewall.html And this one has some pictures of the layout's on the a holley. I hope you find the issue buddy! http://www.nastyz28.com/~copo/circuits.htm

Maybe the prior owner of the 750 installed the wrong throttle body gasket. I would double check the throttle body gasket to make sure you have the right one for the carb. sounds to me like a passage is being blocked.

Hey TurboMeister, As far as I can tell from my monitor, that rattle can red is a PERFECT match to your paint job. Man you are so lucky to find it!!!! I cant's tell you how many silver paint can's I've gone through. I've even had some "custom" matched! and it's still not perfect.

You know there is a thread about headers that you posted a response to 4 days ago and a picture of some tri-y headers were just as large a file as the one you deleted. If your going to delete someone's post's at least you should not be selective with your decision making. Here is the link to the post I'm referring to. its post #4 pic http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/108366-latest-info-on-headers-for-sbc-yes-i-searched/

Nope. None of the control's or the fan heater box are used. The old heater box will have to be removed. The vintage air unit is all self contained in one box. You'll have to make custom brackets to mount it up inside/behind the dash. I found it easier to remove the dash to mount it. It was not an easy install by any means. As an alternative Motorsports Auto has an a/c kit as well. You might want to call them up as well.

I have a "vintage air" gen2 unit. It was the smallest unit that they made at the time i purchased it about 4/5 years ago. I called them up, told them what I ha and they put a kit together for me.

Sometimes, you have to be an old hotrodder and just make the stuff yourself (and save some money!) Here's a link to a page of engine compartment shots that show where it's mounted. http://alteredz.com/TrialFit.htm Totally agree with you on this one Pete. Some times you have no choice if you want it to all fit in our Z's I have a/c P/S and Super charger all fit under the stock hood. believe me I HAD to make EVERY bracket from scratch to make it all fit!

I have 2 pictures of the bracket. Here you go.
