Well my friends, it’s that time again, the END of the holiday season and another year. Armature night is once again upon us, so if you have to be out on the roads tonight, keep your head on a swivel and watch out for the well lubricated road worriers and Johnny Law, both are out to spoil your night. I would like to take this opportunity to wish each of you all the best in 2012, and extend to all of you a “Thank You� for all of your help in the various Z projects that I tackled this past year. Good health and good luck in 2012.

First, I'm NOT trying to "go political" so please don't infract me or give me any more points. I simply think this is a bit of good news for us and our cars, and as usual we won't be hearing about it on the news http://www.historicvehicle.org/Latest-News/December-2011/2011/12/23/Washington-Nixes-Ethanol-Subsidy

date on B-pillar tag is built 9/70 vin number is hls30 107** safari gold, stick shift alloy wheels, one owner, in storage since 1986 less than 50k. This Z has a story, and i tossed it in for the entertainment factor. I am not an authority on Japanese vehicles, and never had to be due to the fact that I had a guy in New Zealand who bought every one that crossed my path. He retired and set sail , so now I have to learn and I am finding that the information online is incomplete and inconsistent. The vin number on most cars carries a wealth of information, such as color, interior, options, sub-model , and build plant. Can some one point me in the right direction wher…

I've been using this site for over two years now and just realized how much money this site has saved me on my Z car fetish, I mean restoration. I would like to challange more people to have their names in red and get to be a supporting member. Everytime I do something to my '72 that I have learned from this outstanding group of individuals I'm PayPal'n at least $5.00, if not more! If all of us were to do that we could ensure this site to stay up and keeping our Admin happy and upgrading servers and resources. I'm not saying to donate everytime we help somebody or participate in a conversation, but when the site benefits us with improving our cars we need to but a por…

So my Z is still slowly coming along, now that school is out and the holidays are coming to an end I've been able to get some work done on her. Hopefully soon she will breath some fresh air for the first time in years. Anyhow I'm hoping to have her running perfectly before MSA's Z show! I've been checking up on their site every so often to see how progress is coming along and get more information as they said that it would be available near the end of the year. Here we are and same page is still up as the clock continues to count down. Just wondering if anyone has any information on it? Opinions? Who's going? Tips? Anyhow thanks!

I'm new to the whole multiple carbs thing. I bought a uni-syn off of craigslist and was able to balance the flow of the SU carbs at idle and 2500 rpm. I've watched the you tube and the Z Therapy videos on adjusting mixture and while I think I have it right, frankly I'm just not certain. I broke down and ordered a colortune (Merry Christmas to me) where you can actually see the flame in the cylinder and know if you are running rich or lean. Below is the link and it has a video of it operating if you are interested. I've talked to a few people on the Healey Forum that bought it and all have thought it worked well. I will let you know as well once I receive it and giv…

I have tried a number of air filters on this L28 in attempt to have good air filtration, functional air horns, a hose for the valve cover and a solution that looks correct (old British) for the car. I saw an ad in the local craigslist for these air filters ($40) and I was shocked to see they were the absolute perfect fit, with air horns and took little effort to add the hose for the valve cover.
