  1. ok so i did a search bu didn't find the info i was looking for... can anybody tell me the differences between an f54 block and an N42 block? strenght, etc.? anything?
  2. that would be really cool. A great update kit.. make alot of money with it
  3. i'm thinking about graphing a 300zx rear tail light into it. 90 or newer style
  4. Easy on the newbie, everybody makes mistakes. Idiots keep making them.
  5. Doesn't really matter what muffler you get any inline 6 Z isn't gonna sound like a 4 banger. I use a magnaflow street series flow through muffler, all stainless steel, and run 2 1/2" pipe up to the header. Sounds good till you get it above 4k then it just screams. but you can't beat the power gain. Just have a local performance shop weld you up an exhaust system. Mine cost 225 with new pipe, custom install, and muffler.
  6. that gonna be big enough to cool it?
  7. We have a boat and use one, and it works very well, it's also used on bridges to slow rust. But as i understood, The one on the car works opposite saltwater, ones on boats neutralizes the water pretty much, How do you neutralize air?
  8. well all i've got is a 280z dist. maybe lata though
  9. I was not aware that octane was related to altitude.. interesting.
  10. I was under the same impression as you... that there is nothing keeping it from falling through.
  11. can a 280z distributor work with carbs on an L28? Logically it still should correct?
  12. http://www.zcarparts.com then go to the online store. -Ed
  13. understanding the difference between a relay, solenoid, transistor, and capacitor make all the difference in wiring.
  14. how low is your car? measuring from the ground to the frame rails? front and back
  15. Do yourself a favor... buy an electronics book. -Ed
  16. And who the hell wants to try to find an oil leak on a black engine? No thanks. Like playing where's waldo. Also... If painting the engine really made such a dramatic difference in temperature drop, every single race enging would be black... I don't know about you guys, but i've never seen a racepreped engine painted black. Plus it looks ugly
  17. Thank you very much for the info, I never really realized all you had to do was swap the rods from a 280 with the ones from a 240 to get the compression, I figured the cranks would be different sizes... silly me. Might have to do that since the engine is already out. Thank you again. -Ed your setup sounds really close to mine. Where did you find your intake manifold?
  18. that's what i was afraid of... sounded too good to be true. I don't like the idea of my strut being held by plastic.
  19. has anybody actually used the "economy camber kit" from MSA they have a $99 camber adjuster... (mount on top of the strut) would 1.5 deg be enough to correct a 1-2" lowered car? thoughts and comments on these?
  20. that is how i had my previous fan as well, but i was looking at going to a dual fan unit, hopping that where the two fans meet would be enough clearance for the pulley
  21. yeah i've got that dimension, i need the width... i need to know how big of a fan i can put on my new aluminuim radiator that i'm ordering, dont' want it touching the pulley
  22. I need somebody to measure the distance from the Dampener to the cross memeber on which the radiator mount... so the distance from the pulley to the radiator plus the width of the radiator. I can not measure as my engine is out of my car. thank you Ed
  23. i have emailed several times with no response back only the "thank you emailing modern motorsports" reply I'm gonna need these spacers by the end of october so i can drive my car.
