Bought a 78 280z with a l28et swap. Anyhow, the owner told me the ignition switch was bad. To start the car i had to put it in the start position, take a wire and make a contact behind the ignition switch. The car started got it home. After that day the car never started again. With key on on position, jumping the starter it only cranked. Today there was a relay lose and my friend reconnected it. He said two wires were power, and two ground. I have no idea what this relay is for, it was zipped tied to the fuse box cover, i took it out to take a picture. Anyhow tried jumping starter again, this time the fusible link started smoking. So i know for a fact now i need new links. The car had symptoms of bad fusible link too even before the smoking, it was getting no spark which i checked for, and i dont believe it was getting any gas, not a hint of gas smell but i did not check this. I am going to replace the fusible link and ignition switch, my question is does anyone have any idea what this relay is? Also could jumping the the ignition switch harness, to get the car to crank cause these fusible link to burn? Its just strange it started smoking after he reconnected this relay, just trying to see if it concident or maybe this is what caused it.

Looking for a 280z hood. Hopefully can find something in ny or new jersey area.

I have either an oil pan leaking or rear main seal leak on my 73 240z with sbc. Its a 2 piece rear main. The motor was rebuilt but i guess the seal can still leak, i can see oil in the bellhousing and on flywheel, so i am guessing rear main? Well anyhow, would i need to remove the entire engine from the car? I don't know if i can raise the engine enough to get the seals in. I am looking for some advice on which ways it can be done.
