what the hell is going on with the guy standing behind the car, he is like double exposed but nothing else is. wtf

i remember drooling over it in SCC. that pancake manifold piping was something else lol

77 l28 distributor, IGN control module. Trigger (white wire) hooked up to c and b is hooked up to the stock wiring. ignition (red wire) hooked up to switched on power orange (+) and black (-) hooked to coil accordingly. blue (cyl select) is grounded. If im missing anything let me know. THanks for your help

aftermarket tach? or stock

holy shat ricks beast is.... a beast. that thing exploded out of the hole.

its got the IC module. Ill check my distributor according to the FSM. thanks for the help

wow. too cool.

anyone?

bump

a freind of mine has a 72 z and when he was looking for a hood in the junk yard, he came back with a hood off a z he found with matching access panels on a half off day for $10 when he showed them to me, they are the full steel louvered hood and matching louvered access panels. they retail for $800 for the hood and $80 a peice for the access panels.. Now thats a deal..

Im going to try and make this as least as confusing as i can. ive got a l28 with electronic pick up. crane cd ignition box. crane ps92 coil. The entire system worked before i started working on the car. its been sitting for a few months and ive only swaped out the alt for delco, intake and exhuast. now there is no spark. -the crane book says that when the ignition is on, the status light should be on.when it ran before it always was. -when your cranking the light should flicker. it does. -now that im having issues, the light will come on if i turn the ignition on, but if i crank the motor there is no spark and when i stop cranking, the light goes out and wont come back on unless i remove the ground and re attach it. Make any sense? i know me and everyone ive asked is stumped.

ok well the top linkage needed to be moved down one rung witch gave it more multiplied travel. now ive got a dead ignition box. faux.

yes, if i do the linkage flips over.

Ok so i recently switched out my old egr l28 manifold and swaped it for a l26 manifold. after trying to hook up the linkage i find that i cant get a full range of throttle. if i adjust it to idle it wont open up at wide open throttle. as pictured at rest Then at WOT the primary's are only open about 3/4 of the way and the secondaries are only 1/4 open. So where is my problem? do i need to adjust rod lengths? Im lost and not sure what to do. Any help is appreciated. thanks

the wheels look like they were Pshoped in

i have. he is local here, its got a bre paint scheme.. lll see if i can contact him

ive been working on my 73 240z with a terribly done l28 swap. the exhaust manifold was cracked and a square port on my n47 head. so i started looking for a round port header and i stumbled upon Blue72's old for sale post. He still had the old header and shipped it out with no delay. Cool guy and he got me out of a bind and was very helpfull. I extend my thanks -Mikey

ok in my coil install guide it doesnt mention needing the balast resitor, nor does it say i dont need it. This is the coil i have.. http://www.cranecams.com/?show=browseParts&lvl=4&prt=166&action=partSpec&partNumber=730-0092 instructions http://www.cranecams.com/pdf/90001091.pdf yes no? sorry, i just want the reassurance before i remove something needed

or what should i look for to get the right gasket?

you wouldnt happen to have a part # on that gasket would you? a n47 is from a 77ish 280z right?

If i was in that price range, id buy a lotus elise or if you can afford, exige. if you want fun and modifiable, s2000. thats just me.

Ok, well i really dont know here, im confused and cant find my answer by searching... on my n47 head, should i be using a round port exhaust manifold? and should my gasket be round ports as well? cuz the gasket i got for it (for a 77z) has not square, but more like hexagon shaped holes.. i dont want any leaks so any info is appreciated. -Mikey

alright ill do that as well. thanks again

thanks, yeah so ive cut it short and added it to the air cleaner
