I snagged a Raybestos Master Cylinder Assembly MC39277 for 1979 Nissan 280ZX. I got it of eBay for $76

Hope to stop by shop...I live right down the street.

This is how I got mine off... Spray PB Blaster in/around the lugs and hit the drum with a sledge hammer in alternating patern (top, bottom, left, right). Then wiggle the drum back an forth. I takes some time, but she came off.

She's alive!

Hello, my name is Goob (my birth name Jeremy) and I snagged this from the Blue Ridge Mountains of VA in October. 1972 Datsun 240Z L28 motor with moderate cam, Eibach springs Boge shock Front and rear sway bars 6-1 headers 4 speed trans Air dam Electronic ignition. It has been sitting for 3 years so I have some work to do. This is my first restoration/project car so I hope to learn alot and get this Z back on the road. There are a bunch unkowns with this car: Milage on the motor What cams How the electronic ignition was done Will she start/run but this is what makes it fun...right? Well, I had a lovely Saturday with this old gal... I replaced the battery, drained the old gas, filled her up with new gas, and got the stuck drum off. With a little bit of starter fluid and a few turns of the key she started up...then got on fire! Luckily I was prepared and had an extinguisher on hand. No harm was down. The vent tube on the front carb is pissing out fuel when she turns over. The float is either stuck or leaking. Hope to find out soon...she sounded sooooo good. I have no idea what cam is installed but I liked how it sounded. A few problem I noticed is the horn sticks and there is an after market horn installed in under the hood. The OEM radio does not turn on, probally becasue the PO had an aftermarket stereo system and there are wires everywhere.

I am going to try to install a BBK Varitune muffler: http://www.jegs.com/p/BBK-Performance-Products/BBK-Vari-Tune-Adjustable-Performance-Mufflers/2861444/10002/-1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOTJwB3r3HY
