no you should already have a 60 amp alternator. the fan draws a bunch of current at start up. after start up if i remember, when fan is running, is something like 8 to 12 amps on low, 14 to 18 on high. if you are running a big draw stereo, you may need to up the alternator. figure out at night, headlamps, tail lights, heater fan, wipers, radio, dash lamps, ect that you are running and how many amps they use. remember you draw off the battery, the alternator fills the battery back up. if you drain faster than the alternator can refill, things will go dead. i'd put the fan in, use a good battery and give it a try. if lights dim when fan comes on and stay dim, upgrade the alternator. i am running the 104 amp because i wanted to be sure. room to add other accessories. be advised that the taurus fan has only one motor. you must shut off the low speed before you turn on the high speed. most people use one temp controlled switch and a relay to power the low speed. it is a very efficient fan ( as long as the radiator and associated cooling system is in good condition ) normally you will not have to use the high speed. that said, if you decide to use a switch inside the truck to turn on the high speed ( as most people do ), run the sw to a relay to power the high speed. make sure that when that switch turns on the high speed it also shuts off the power to the low speed. if you try to run the low and high speed at the same time, you will burn out the motor. it has been a few years since i wired mine up. divorce and lack of funds ( divorce LOL ) my 240z is just setting. i wired mine using Cozy Cole's schematics and used two temperature switches. best to read my write up at hybridz.org as i don't remember exactly how i did it. i do know that it works perfectly. use the 3 relays and follow the schematics. Cozy talked me through part of it. he is a real nice guy. if you get confused, shoot him an email. i'm willing to help as well but, as i say, it has been a while. wayne

hi Pete ! our 2200 deal still on, is it not ? wink wink. you are correct about that duntov 30-30 cam. also correct that changing it out to a modern design will bring more horsepower. plus, change over to hydraulic, get more torque and hp without having to adjust the lifters every 4000 to 5000 miles. though, is hard to beat the sound of the tick tick and the lump lump at idle.

though it's been parked in the garage and has not moved under its own power since 1986, my '58 vette has a 365/327. i bought car when i was a senior in high school, 1974. it belonged to my uncle's best friend. he had time slips from bayland/fremont raceway showing 10.8 seconds for the quarter mile. i know for a fact would easily pull both front tires 10 inches off the ground, keep tires in the air through 3rd gear. i had to do the body work to fix the fiberglas behind the rear wheels after i proved to neighbor could pull the wheels. as far as the 93 octane, if you kept the temps down and the timing correct, you should be able to run the 365/ 327 on the pump gas. i would consider adding a real octane booster on the weekends or anytime you were planning on some horse play. i had a 70 LT-1 roadster in 1981. 370/350. person i bought from had shaved the heads and other stupid stuff. was running 12 to 1 compression. as long as i did not stand on it, was able to run on the unleaded premium. if i eased into it, could get some speed and no issues. if stood on it, forget it, massive detonation. once blew the electrode out of 2 of the yellow accel racing plugs. spark plug wire was laying up on the inner fender well. detonation issues are also different with an auto trans vs. a manual. driving style also affects detonation. i have friends with hot rod chevys running 11 to 1 compression, couple use em as daily drivers. as long as they don't go wide open throttle, they have no problems. when they want to have a little fun, they add octane booster. if you want a 327 in your z and, that is a real 365/327, you oughta see if you can pick it up. i think you will be happy with it. there are several things you can do to eliminate detonation. popular back when was water/alcohol injection. wayne

for most of your automotive projects, you can get by with the hobart 140. it is 110 volt, means you can use it most anywhere. 30 percent duty cycle. means weld for constant 3 mins let cool (YES ) for 7 minutes. i seriously doubt you will be making any 3 minute welds. has not been an issue for me or any of my friends. i have the hobart 140, welding with flux core wire. reason for flux core is can weld thicker metal and i am welding in carport. wind blows the gas away. have not done any work on 240z with the mig. my buddy from work welded 2 and half inch dom and 3 in dom tubing on a roll cage in his scout. we modified the custom cage he bought, added extra reinforcements, cut and added additonal mounting points and supports. we are also welding together a roll cage into 72 baja bug. .09 mild steel tubing. is a score certified cage and we are modifying it. cage is being tied bumper to bumper. we made saddles and welded to the rear torsion bar, tieing two down tubes to the torsion bar. under the rear window on the firewall, we have a 1/4 inch thick plate bolted to the firewall. two tubes off the rear of cage welded to that plate, as well as 2 other points of contacts to the same plate. no holes for tubes to pass through firewalls. instead we are welding 3/16 and 1/4 inch plates for "feet" drill through the feet, through firewall, body, using grade 8 nuts and bolts to tie things together. again i have welded 1/4 inch plate steel together with no problems. my neighbor is professional welder and is very impressed with the hobart. he is a miller man. the hobart is a knock off of the miller ( hobart is made by miller ). uses a few lighter weight parts and few plastic where the miller uses metal and heavier ga. i am thinking of moving up to another welder ( my neighbor says i am wasting my money, stick with the 140 ), as i want to weld some 1/2 inch stuff in one pass. my neighbor used the 140 and made perfect welds on 1/2 inch steel. took 3 passes, wire speed at 40, voltage set on 4. was thinking of adding the hobart 187 to my garage. it is a 220 volt welder, more ummph going in. but i will need to keep the welder close to the electric outlet. where with the 140 i have a 50 foot cord ( 12 ga ) and can take it that far from the outlet. 110 volt welder, take welder to the car as opposed to bringing car to the welder. again, my neighbor says i don't need it ( 220 v welder ). will be waste of my money, he says all i need is practice and patients. he certainly has that patients part down. what you planning on welding ? if just car stuff, give the hobart 140 a serious look see. i got mine brand new off ebay, including shipping to my house for right around 400 bucks. if you are thinking you will be welding thicker material on off road vehicles, lots of 5/16 thick material, you may want the 220 v welder. if so, give the hobart 187 a good look. otherwise, i think you will be very happy with the hobart 140. stop by the welding and fabricating area of hybridz.org. submit same question there. good luck, wayne

i missed that ! happy b day. how's your back doing ?

yes. wouldn't recommend it. dirt and poisonous gases will come into the car. there are plenty of parts cars on craigslist. buy a drill. buy a jig saw or saws all. drill the corners, enlarge holes so blade fits. cut the spare tire holder out of the parts car. cut enough so that it over laps the area cut out of your car. clean the edges up. flatten em down using hammer and flat metal behind it. lay the piece into your 260z. once you see that it will fit, lift it out. using body glue/adhesive ( get at local auto paint supply house ) and caulking gun, glue the part in place. ( follow directions for cleaning, temps, ect ) once that is dry, use a body seam sealant ( same paint supply ) seal around the edges. this will be a permanent repair. if you do not want the spare tire holder, get a piece of sheet metal at local metal recycler ( simms ?? ) cut and hammer to size. ( use jig saw or saws all ) or take to vocational center and pay em 10 bucks or so to cut it to size. again, hammer adjust the metal so it lays flat and meets the metal on the car. prep and glue the plate in place. seal the seams . if you are nervous about the glue ( i would not be ). drill the matching size holes and use a pop rivet gun ( harbor freight ) to put rivets that match the hole in place. seal the seams. you must use the body sealant. silicon and such will not work. wayne

most of the crude is usually down at the lower hose adapter. had same issue with a 73 i bought that had been parked for 12 yrs. this is what i did with the engine in the car. suggest you put your block at that angle. remove the adapter. i used a piece of metal bent into a hook shape to remove as much as i could get to inside the block and in the general area . remove thermostat. put the housing back in place. put upper radiator hose in place. take garden hose, shove it into the upper hose. if you want, you can use duct tape to seal the garden hose inside the upper hose. at spigot ( faucet ) turn water on about half way. this will blow most of the loose crude out of the block. after about 5 minutes, turn water all the way on. run water another 5 or so minutes. turn water off. let drain. put the lower adapter back in place. put lower hose on. seal the end of lower hose. at local auto parts store, get some coolant flush. dump it in the upper hose. if air temps are cold ( winter ), boil some water on the stove ( couple gallons ) or microwave. per directions on the container, add the appropriate amount of water, down the upper hose. block in garage or out of the cold, let it set for couple days. every once in a while, using a a large RUBBER mallet, hammer HARD on the block. after couple days, drain the cleaner ( remove lower hose and adapter - the adapter is bolted to the block ). run hot water through the block. pour it in the upper hose. let it run out the bottom of the block. grab the garden hose, repeat what you did before using the cleaner. this should clean about 75% or more of the crude out of the block. the rest you can get out once the engine is in the car and running. good luck, wayne

i use a 185 fan switch off the intake manifold ( chevy ) for the low speed. using Cozy's schematics/relay set up, i use a european only corvette 205 degree fan switch for the high speed. it is mounted on the top of the water pump. i read that this is the temps that corvette engineers set for their high speed to come on. if this is where engineers want it to be, who am i to 2nd guess em ? supposedly the 205 degree fan sw is european only because of the high speed driving they do there. a safety factor. i used the 205 fan sw instead of manual sw in Cozy's schematic as prefer thing be idiot proof. with the jtr radiator, high flow aluminum water pump, high flow thermostat, and taurus 2 spd fan on 100 degree day, in my driveway, engine idling for close to 30 mins, the high spd never kicked on, the low spd cycled on and off. temp ga was right at 185. as a test, i grounded the 205 fan sw, low spd shut off, high spd came on. i blocked the radiator off with cardboard, took about 4 mins for the high speed to come on. seconds after high came on, i pulled the cardboard, let air flow again. temps dropped, fan went silent. thought i broke something. temps below 185. all was fine. low spd cycled off and on again. chevrolet suggests, 185 and 205. if you worry about detonation, you may want to run 165 as low fan sw temp, this may allow you to run a hotter spark plug.

check out cozy cole's posts as to how to wire the two spd fan. i used his schematics ( i have a scarab, not an LS 1 ). i modified his plans just a bit. i use a 2nd fan temp sw that automatically turns the higher speed on, opposed to a manual sw on the dash. be advised that you will burn the fan motor out if you try and run the low speed and high speed at the same time. there are 3 wires on fan motor. one is ground. one is low speed. one is high speed. before engaging the high speed, you must shut off power to the low speed. cozy's schematic shows how to use 3 relays and a fan temp sw ( you must use a fan switch, not a temp sender ) and a manual sw to power the fan. his set up works excellent. i used the JTR radiator and mount. i used the aluminum bars supplied by jtr. the bars run vertically on engine side of rad. i notched the bottom and top holes of rad mount, moved the bars more towards the center of rad. i placed the fan and built in shroud on top of the mount ( on a bench ). carefully drilled through the shroud and into the vertical bars. did this on all corners ( not exactly on the corners, but you get the idea ). i then tapped the vertical bars. used socket head bolts and rubber coated washers. threaded the bolts through holes in shroud into the vertical bars. ( lock tite on bolts ). i also drilled a hole in jtr rad mount for the stock ford mounting hole. i used a tinner man nut on the jtr mount and ran a bolt through the stock ford hole into the tinner man nut. i also did this with the factory hole on the bottom of tarus fan shroud. there are other ways to mount the tarus fan to the jtr rad mount. this is how i did it. i may be selling the scarab and doing an LS 1 swap into the bambi killer. wayne you may need to cut a dog ear off, i think the top left of shroud.

the crate engine usually has a spec as to the years the engine is applicable. company selling crate engine shows range of years the engine may replace. generally, this is what the state will use as the year of the engine. if engine is not new. instead is a rebuilt, check the casting date on the block. the casting date will be used by the state to determine the date of manufactuer and smog requirements. if there is no spec application implied as when using a racing engine, you may find that CARB will disallow the use of the engine ( racing application, not designed to be used on the highway ). most replacement engines come with a CARB ( california air resources bureau ) certification. you should be safe if using any of the certified engines.

oh almost forgot. most collector car insurance companies will not insure modified collector cars. when bought the 70 LT-1 had hooker headers and big chrome side pipes ( i removed em. were ugly loud and damn hot ). haggerty would not insure it with the side pipes. also wanted to know on application form, if had modifications IE: high performance camshaft, non stock carb, engine swap, suspension modifications, brakes, ect. they do have a class for modified vehicles. rules at the time, and as they have gotten stricter i am sure rules are the same ; modified vehicles must be trailered to events. may only be driven at sanctioned events or on private property and never on any public roadways. burger pit parking ( ect ) lots are considered public accessible roadways, therefore modified vehicle may not be operated/driven in parking lots.

other than to and from repair shops, a collector car can only be driven to parades and club/car related functions. in other words, not to work, not to grocery store. not to your friend's house. not even around the block because you felt like taking it out of the garage. i went through this when i owned the 70 LT- 1 vette. dropped the coverage because i wanted to drive my car on daily basis. i am sure the state won't get too excited but, haggarty will if finds out : fender bender in the target parking lot. below is the statement about visual inspection. was basically put in place so that museums could keep cars registered and not have to bother with chasing down functioning parts made of unobtainium to stay smog legal. The bill would also provide that, commencing April 1, 2005, defined collector motor vehicles for which proof of insurance is submitted on that basis in accordance with regulations of the Bureau of Automotive Repair, and that are at least 35 model-years old, shall be subject to otherwise applicable exhaust emissions standards, but shall not be required to pass a visual and functional inspection of emission equipment, other than a functional inspection of the fuel cap and a visual inspection for liquid fuel leaks. whole law is below BILL NUMBER: AB 2683 ENROLLED BILL TEXT PASSED THE SENATE AUGUST 27, 2004 PASSED THE ASSEMBLY AUGUST 27, 2004 AMENDED IN SENATE AUGUST 26, 2004 AMENDED IN SENATE AUGUST 23, 2004 AMENDED IN ASSEMBLY MAY 20, 2004 AMENDED IN ASSEMBLY MARCH 24, 2004 INTRODUCED BY Assembly Member Lieber (Coauthor: Assembly Member Koretz) (Coauthor: Senator Machado) FEBRUARY 20, 2004 An act to amend Section 44011 of the Health and Safety Code, and to amend Sections 4000.1 and 4000.2 of the Vehicle Code, relating to air pollution. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST AB 2683, Lieber. Air pollution: smog check. (1) Existing law establishes a motor vehicle inspection and maintenance program (smog check), administered by the Department of Consumer Affairs and the State Air Resources Board, that provides for the inspection of all motor vehicles, except those specifically exempted from the program, upon registration, biennially upon renewal of registration, upon transfer of ownership, and in certain other circumstances. Existing law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to require any motor vehicle subject to those requirements to demonstrate compliance with those requirements. Existing law also establishes an enhanced motor vehicle inspection and maintenance program (smog check II) in each urbanized area of the state, any part of which is classified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as a serious, severe, or extreme nonattainment area for specified air contaminants. Existing law also requires the smog tests to include, at minimum, loaded mode dynamometer testing in enhanced areas, and 2-speed testing in all other program areas, and a visual or functional check of emission control devices specified by the department. Existing law exempted from those requirements, until January 1, 2003, any motor vehicle manufactured prior to the 1974 model-year, and after that date, any motor vehicle that is 30 or more model-years old. This bill would instead, commencing April 1, 2005, exempt from the smog check requirements, and the smog check compliance requirements, any motor vehicle manufactured prior to the 1976 model-year. Existing law exempts from existing smog check requirements, any motor vehicle 4 or less model-years old and also exempts any motor vehicle up to 6 model-years old, unless the state board determines that the exemption would prohibit the state from meeting specified requirements of the federal Clean Air Act. This bill would, commencing April 1, 2005, make the exemption for any motor vehicle 4 or less model-years old inapplicable if the state board makes those same determinations regarding the requirements of the federal act. The bill would also provide that, commencing April 1, 2005, defined collector motor vehicles for which proof of insurance is submitted on that basis in accordance with regulations of the Bureau of Automotive Repair, and that are at least 35 model-years old, shall be subject to otherwise applicable exhaust emissions standards, but shall not be required to pass a visual and functional inspection of emission equipment, other than a functional inspection of the fuel cap and a visual inspection for liquid fuel leaks. (2) Under existing law, the Department of Motor Vehicles, with certain exceptions, is required to obtain submission of a valid smog check certificate of compliance or noncompliance, as appropriate, in order to register a motor vehicle previously registered outside the state. Among other exemptions, from this requirement, existing law exempts 1965 or earlier model-year motor vehicles. This bill, commencing April 1, 2005, would instead apply the model-year exemption that is applicable to vehicles registered in this state. The bill would also make technical clarifying changes. (3) Existing law makes any violation of the smog check requirements a misdemeanor. To the extent that the bill would impose the smog check requirements on additional vehicles on and after April 1, 2005, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program by expanding the scope of a crime. (4) This bill would render inoperative on and after April 1, 2005, the amendments to Sections 43843 and 44004 of the Health and Safety Code proposed by SB 1615, if this bill is enacted after SB 1615. (5) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. (a) It is the intent of the Legislature, in enacting the act adding this section, to ensure that vehicles, of the 1975 model-year and older are permanently exempted from the biennial compliance requirement of the motor vehicle inspection and maintenance (smog check) program.

Datsun 240, 260 and 280Z Fiberglss Door panels - $230 (santa clara) Reply to: sale-336110091@craigslist.org Date: 2007-05-22, 10:59AM PDT I have four sets of panels that are ready to ship and two sets of arm rest that are ready to ship as well. The custom handles were built with the idea that I would need a place for my window switches and a door pull. I borrowed the handle cup from my 2004 Mitsubishi Galant although you may choose a different type or application. Keep in mind however that the arm rest is tappered so you may be limited in your selection As far as the window crank goes ... you can NOT!!! use the factory handle. It will not clear the speaker pod and its not long enough to clear the inside of the panel (it doesn't stick out past the new panel) as pictured below. I'm sure there are several options for power windows but the one that I recommend is listed here: http://www.spal-usa.com/ Their kit is simple to install and comes with everything you need to make the switch to power windows. I personally bought a set for my VW Cabriolet/Rabbit back in 2000 and I've never had a problem with them. Anyone with basic tools and the ability to hook up the 12V and a ground wire can do it. Cost: 230.00 for a set of panels and 55.00 for my custom handles. Panel installation is simple, you can pop rivet the panels to the factory upper door trim and/or bond it together with a basic two part epoxy. As a Courtesy I will pop rivet and bond the two pieces together if you send me your factory upper door trim with your payment If any of you are interested in purchasing a set or if you have any questions you can contact me at 510-938-8297. Im located in the San Francisco bay area, Santa Clara, Ca to be exact.

Cost: 230.00 for a set of panels and 55.00 for my custom handles. Panel installation is simple, you can pop rivet the panels to the factory upper door trim and/or bond it together with a basic two part epoxy. As a Courtesy I will pop rivet and bond the two pieces together if you send me your factory upper door trim with your payment If any of you are interested in purchasing a set or if you have any questions you can contact me at 510-938-8297. Im located in the San Francisco bay area, Santa Clara, Ca to be exact. * it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests
