  1. I need a nice set of black A piller plastic covers for a 77Z. Shipping will be to 97701. Thanks, Chris
  2. I know this thread is a little old, but this is right in line with my project and a couple questions i have. I will be installing a .460 lift cam in my 77Z and was worried I may have interference issues and need to shim. Any input would be great. I have a stock block with 82 NA flat top pistons and a P90 head. The reason behind the head was a turbo build that never happened, now im going with the Arizona Z 4bbl intake. I know the head is a little bigger (about 9cc's over the original) and im hoping the valves are gonna be up high enough to clear the pistons when full open. The other question I had was what is reusable in a cam swap, I have new rocker arms and see I will need springs, and was planning on new lash pads unless someone thinks otherwise. Lastly, has anyone used the MSA performance valve springs? they are only like 30.00 more then the Rebello outer springs for the inner and outer springs and retainers. I just want whats gonna be best for my Z, its been in build for 5 years, and as soon as the snow melts it will be on the road. Note: I will not be hard core racing, maybe a little track time and a pass or two at the strip, nothing above 6500 RPM.
  3. So I am just about done with my 5 year complete rebuild of my 280Z and I go in the garage this morning and find that the stack of containers my wife has the Christmas stuff packed in has fallen over and the piece of S&$@ sewing machine that was on top has fallen off and into the passenger side fender of my car. It has a pretty big dent in it right where it curves from flat to the side of the car. I pulled an Office Space on the sewing machine, its no longer with us...but now I need a fender. So if anyone out there has a passenger side front fender they want to part with, please send me a price plus shipping to 97701. Any help would be nice, I just want to get it out of the garage before something else bad happens to it!!
  4. Looking for a square port header in the 125.00-150.00 range shipped to 97701. Please respond with a picture if interested. Chris
  5. I need an electronic distibutor from a 77-83 NA Zcar, i will be installing it with a Crane ignition system, so I dont think it matters much what year its from. Or, if you have the timing adjustment plate that bolts to the bottom of the dizzy (not the part that bolts to the front cover) for an 80's model dizzy, that would work. Also need a header for a P90 head that is in working condition. I have a CPU and wiring for a ZXT to trade if interested. Thanks, Chris
  6. Sounds like a possable short to ground when the key is in the start position. You should be able to check for that pretty easy with a multi-meter.
  7. I recentley obtained a duel point distributor part number D614-52. I was told its from a 240Z, but the part number is not in any lists i have seen yet. If anyone knows what year and make this is from, let me know. THANKS
  8. WOW grumpy, i dont know where you got all that info, but that pretty much answers my question! Thanks all!!
  9. Hey all, not really a newbie here, I have had my 77 280Z for over ten years, but have recently decided to do the Gen1 Chevy V8 swap. My question is for all you out there that already have this swap, which tranny do you prefer, the TH350 or 400? I plan to build around 350HP at the crank, and would like to keep the RPM’s out of the critical range as much as possible. It will be used for cruzing most of the time, and im afraid a TH350 will really wind out on the highway. I also wanted to know if a TH400 will work with the JTR cross member. Thanks!!!
