OOHH FRIGGIN RAHHH!!!!! Semper Fi...I am finally retired and it feels good and feels bad. I really miss it and the structure. It also says I am growing older and that my days are numbered. Life is grand and sad at the same time. Like the Matrix says "The purpose of life is to die". All beginnings have an end......Im just glad I had the opportunity to be a part of such a great team and own a Z of coarse! Thank goodness for Hybridz....Im in debt to you all for your hospitality and support....Happy Birthday Marines.....never quit and always do your very best at everything you do......Semper Fi!!!!!

OK, Im buying the Aston and then cutting the front light assy and molding in my 240 Z buckets and putting the covers on. That would be sweet....
By the way, the Zette arrived from Japan today so I am so going to Dallas to pick her up Wednesday.....
I am stoked.....I get to turn wrenches again.....anyone know the torque values for the rear flange nut?

Roger that! Well I just bought a booster and MC from JT from a 280ZX. If the bolt pattern is different I will redrill the firewall to fit. I do need the extra vacuum cuz I have the front and rear disk upgrades. This may be dumb, but how do you bench bleed the MC? I always just pump up the pedal then open the nipples and close and repeat. Is that it?

Like Stony told me once...add 2 to 3 tenths on top of the estimated HP and ETs and be happy if your close or excited if you do better!

Great job Mike! At 11.81 I wish I could fall on my face and still go that fast.....maybe I will..cant wait to go down the strip! Whats your RWHP and final MPH thru the traps?

Zero, I had a 74 260 4 seater (see my site) with headers and triple Mikunis with MSD, 5 speed, 3:54 rear stock internals bored to 2.9 Liter and ran 14.55 at 95+ MPH. It was a long time ago...in Carlsbad California. Before I built my current 350, my 2 seater ran a 13.7 at 99MPH on the stock 350 with headers and a Holley 650 VAC secondary....however I have fixed that problem!! Can't wait to run in the spring....must have new tranny as well....

Simon, assuming your 2+2 is 2875lbs with you in it, with 250 RWHP and good traction etc, I estimate you running 103.67 MPH or a 13.148 in the quarter. Look here:

Just one estimate method....

Cool, thanks for the input guys. I guess I will go with the 2+2 280Z Booster since its bigger.....

Guys I found two part numbers an 8 1/2 inch booster for a 78 280Z #53-5104 from AutoZone and a 10 inch booster #53-5065. I am upgrading from the 240Z unit to this. My question is does the 280 Brake Booster have the same 4 studs coming out the front like the smaller 240 unit does that will be a direct bolt on to the 240 master Cylinder? They are the same right? Pete you out there? Any one else done this swap? PLease advise...

Mike, I specifically told AFR What cam and setup I was building (just like the one on thier site). He said the springs out of the box were fine for that build. I paid $1250 for the heads ported etc out of the box and $140 for match porting the AFR intake I got with it seperate $195 I think plus shipping. I bought directly from AFR. It was a patience game because they said they had to make them but I am happy with them. No problems at all yet except that damn 700R4 shifting woes....like your old one was.

Mike I hate to be an ass but I know you would have loved the AFRS, I mean 450HP off the crank from a 350 40 over isnt too shabby. Im sure your Canfields will work just maybe a little more expensive to duplicate. Lets us know how she runs down the track.

Triple Carbs - Full Flow or dead head
in Fuel Delivery
Posted
Let me see. I used to have the triple setup with Solex Mikunis 44s. The original fuel system on my 260 was a return type system so I just plugged into that. I also have ran dead head but it sucks if you use too much pressure. Gas will pour out of your carbs onto your headers and WILL cause a fire (I know). Change the fitting on the last carb to flow thru and run a line back to the tank that should already be there! Just my 2 cents...
I think I ran like 5.5 or 6 PSI on those. You can test them by starting at 5 and watching the bells to make sure no gas comes out and also by bogging/starving upon acceleration etc. If it cuts out youll know your starving for fuel...adjust accordingly in .5 degree settings...![:wink:](//forums.hybridz.org/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png)
