[R-200 install questions...]

I recently finished this swap on my '72 240z. The R200 mustache bar fits behind(towards the rear of the car) the 2 brackets that run vertically from the body to the lower control arm bracket.

 

I had previously mounted my fuel pump to one

of the vertical brackets. I had to move the pump when I installed the R200.

 

There's a good picture of the rear suspension in the JTR manual that shows how the R200 is mounted.

[question]

The speedo gears for the 200-4R are available

from a GM dealer. Check out TCI's tech info

site...

...lots on good info on auto trans

dimensions, gear ratios, speedo gears, etc.

[intake manifolds]

Edelrock used to have the dimensions of most

of their manifolds on the web. I can't find

it now...

 

I'm running a Performer RPM intake with a

Performer RPM Q-jet carb(850 cfm). I use a

Moroso drop-base air cleaner with a 3 inch filter.

 

I,ve got the JTR mounts, including the spacer

between the front crossmember and the frame,

and everything fits well.

[which radiator hoses?]

Thanks, Pete. I knew someone had to have figured this out the hard way already.

 

Don

[which radiator hoses?]

Can anyone tell me which radiator hoses will

work with the '85 Camaro radiator and the JTR

SBC engine mounts? I would prefer a molded

hose over a flex hose.

 

I am real anxious to fire up the engine after

spending so much time and money piecing it

together and installing it.

 

Thanks,

Don
