Does anyone know what clutch fork was used in a scarab ? The bell housing is a 3849309 early nova but I have not found what clutch fork was used . Thanks.

Years ago in California when you could put an earlier motor in a newer chassis I went to the BAR and they tagged my car for a 1962 327. PCV and evap is all I need .
-
Came out pretty good, no cutting of the drive shaft . Had to make a new trans crossmember but worth it. 1500 rpm at 55 mph and 1900 rpm at 70 mph. Much more fun drive down the freeway now.
-
Well, I ordered one off. I'll let you guys know how it works out.

I have a early 71 240Z with a Scarab kit, 327 4 speed. I'm looking at the McLeod 5 speed transmission as it looks to be almost a direct replacemant for the super T-10 I have now. Anyone use this transmission yet ?
-
I have the same sticker from the BAR on my Z but with a 62 327. I put in the early engine when I had to smog it years ago. Back then you would smog to the engine not the chassis. It was probably built with the kit they sold. Not sure of worth but there is the old saying, it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it at the time that your willing to selling it.

Yours could have been built with the kit they sold. It came with mounts, headers, radiator, driveshaft , ect.

Put on a new rotor.

Nothing wrong with the worthless old school small block Chevy. My race 240Z went 8.46 in the quarter with one carb and gas, no turbos, nitrous , blower ect. Normaly asperated. My street Z, a 71 with the Scarab kit runs plenty strong with a 327 and 4 speed.

Did you have a shroud on when you used the puller s.
Yes. I used the schroud that champion supplied with the radiator. The engine is a fairly hot soild lifter 327.

I have the Champion 4 row Z radiator in my Z. The fans that come with them suck, but not in a good way. I switched to a pair Spal pullers 30102054 which were better but still didn't cut it. I went back to a 6 blade mechanical fan, 15" with aluminum blades and that helped but still wasn't there even with a high flow waterpump being overdriven. Now I put a pair of Spal pushers, 30102806 on it along with the mechanical fan and it is fixed. Driving in town in 105 degree heat today it worked fantastic.The only problem is that the fans pull a lot of amps but the alt I put on can handle it. The fans run off a pair of 50 amp relays and switch on at 185 and off at 175. When they come on they run for under a minute and then switch right off.

I just got the Arizona Z Car front brake kit for my 71 240Z. The calipers are wilwood 120-11133 and the rotors are 160-2894 and 160-2895. Maybe Dave will sell you the hats and caliper brackets and you can get the wilwood parts over there ?
-
I would probably go LS 1 if I were to do a new Z.
i'm way old school, 1962 327 & 4 speed in a 71 Z .

did you do a water test...seems that some people used that and it did not seal out water well...?
Sealed like a champ.No problem at all. Should have done it sooner.

No and No.

I used the McMaster-Carr 1120A331 weatherstrip and it worked perfect. Did two 45 degree cuts on the upper rear corner.

Plugged up air bleed in a holley will give you grief as well. Air bleeds in carbs are like grounds in electrical, everyone over looks them.
-
Take the top of the carb off, remove the boosters and clean air bleeds. Make sure all passages in the boosters are clear.

Thanks for the reply. The 240Z takes one strut where the 280Z takes two. my original one is shot and if I remember right it would barley hold the hatch when it was new but that was 20 years ago when it was replaced. I was wondering if the ones they make now are stronger than they used to be.

The slave cylinder is off a B210 . The 240 slave cylinder puts the bleeder down the B210 puts it up .
