    I wonder how the fit is, and if it works with JTR headers. The transmission mount looks nicer, but seems like it would have your exhaust low since you would have to go under it.

    On another car I had the urethane busings came with a few small grooves lengthwise (not around) the bushing that I was able to pack with grease, and the arm had a zerk in it. The grooves gave someplace for the grease to go.

    Thanks. Do you have a 280? On that note, does anyone have one not installed yet for a 280z that they could measure the length of?

    Has anyone used the transmission mount with bad dog frame rails? If so, did it fit between the rails or did it need to be cut and shortened?

    Do you happen to know if your flange is the same as the early q45 flange?

    That one looks nice too. Is it also able to use the odb2 data to get Rpm's etc?

    For the 240 bad dog makes extension pieces to carry the rails back to the boxed in part near the strut towers. If you have a 280 you can go to a rear sway bar mount and make your own extension pieces.

    Thanks. My engine is supposed to be here Thursday so I will be ready to order this stuff soon to get started as soon as I finish stitch weldi g and putting frame rails on.

    I'll have to try to find te receipt. I bought t several months ago with a couple other patch panels and don't remember what the price was.

    Did you install bad dog frame rails and stitch weld the car before you put the V8 in?

    Heres a video I found on youtube that shows what it looks like. It says there are 450 tracks preloaded into it.

    I see a few people here using harrys lap timer. It lets you use a better gps via bluetooth with faster resolution so its more accurate. Apparently a lot of cellphones gps' are only accurate to 10 feet and can show you off the course when you're actually on. The better ones are accurate to 3 feet or less. Also a lot of tracks are built into his, and you can add yours if it isnt. http://www.gps-laptimer.de/Home.html

    I ordered the slam panel piece that goes under the hatch a few months ago but haven't gotten around to putting it in yet. It looks like a good fit when I lay it over the other one though. He said he was interested in making more body panels for the z if he could get a hold of decent parts to scan. I may send my battery tray if I make a lower one to give back to the cause.

    I read several threads and it seems most people use the JTR headers over the JCI. Is there any reason for this? From what I gather the JTR takes some fitting to get them in but the JCI doesn't have those issues. Why did y'all choose one over the other? Thanks.

    Looks great! Do you know if it will meet any SCCA requirements?

    Can you post a photo of how the front mounts are bolted to the car?
  17. socorob
    Would it work on a 280 with stock seat belts in place?

    You're only supposed to put light coats of ospho on. I put it in a spray bottle and mist the surface then wipe it around with a rag. If you put it too thick you get that black goop and I heard you should grind that off before painting. I do a couple very light coats. I think it steals an oxygen atom from the rust so it's no longer rust.

    Which painless harness are you using and does it fit where the stock fuse box was?

    I had a pair of brown leather piloti's and the medium width seem to be more like a narrow. I guess they run a little narrow?
  21. socorob
    Ha no. Locking mechanisms inside turnstiles.
  22. socorob
    No. When I replace them after they break I just snug them with an Allen wrench. These are totally loaded in shear only with people pushing against them.

    I would go with the factory bolts. These bolts scare me. I had a call out this morning and this is what I found.

    http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?p=5544871 Those bulkhead connectors are sort of big but are made so you don't have holes in the firewall heat can come thru around wires. You may have to use more than 1 but they make a very clean install. Look at the 10th picture from the top and you can see how it works. I believe the connector locks together with a screw so it stays tight. It would be a lot of crimps to make though as the big one is 22 pins.

    You could use a weatherpack bulkhead connector in the firewall if you wanted the ecu inside the car and a quick way to unplug it under the hood.
