Actually around 0:45 to 0:55 I'm testing out the speedo. It works. I combined the Ford end and the Datsun end for my cable, but I have heard that a straight datsun cable will work. I didn't really check it against a GPS speedo but it seemed about the right speed driving around base housing. It's -6 outside, with snow on the ground, and has been in the teens during the daytime the past week so I haven't been able to drive around at all. I'm also working out a pretty good exhaust leak on the driver's side header. I went ahead and had the driver's side header milled flat and I'm now awaiting a set of Percy's dead soft aluminum gaskets before I reinstall.

So the last motor I had in the Z cracked due to my stupidity. I thought that I had drained all the water out of the block before last winter and well that was a dumb assumption. I should have just filled the entire system with anti-freeze and left it until I was ready to work on it again. Six freeze plugs on the floor later...Oh well, live and learn the hard way. I went ahead and purchased a 1975 mexican longblock through S&J engines out of Seattle (through O'reilly for the warranty and military discount) and a T5 as well. Worked through the thanksgiving break to get the motor back together and back in the Z and broke in the cam this past week. Here's a video of me driving around the block. First time in the 7 years I've owned the car that I've been able to drive it!

I'm trying to hook up my tachmatch from Brian Laine and I have the same wiring situation as TooSlowToCare. TooSlowToCare did this work for you?
