Distributor cap with BRASS terminals!!

[JimmyZ]

In some previous threads there was high talk of brass in distributor cap terminals being superior to/more durable than aluminum. In all the years I've owned my Z I've only been able to get the aluminum variety... Until last week!

It seems that Carquest carries some excellent parts. http://www.carquest.com/ Everything I've bought from them for the Z has been top notch.

Never bought from them until the gas crunch made me buy along my route to home. Glad I started.

Here's a few things I've recently bought which are of better quality than Autozone or Advance...

Dist cap / rotor (brass)

Points (high quality) Not like mainstream crap stores sell

Exhaust flange gasket (Like OEM aluminum sandwhich)

3 row Radiator

New clutch kit (not rebuilt) 76 280Z clutch for $150

(PP, disc, throwout and input shaft bearing and clutch tool included)

2c

NAPA also carries high quality parts. When I don't use OEM, I generally will go to to Car Quest or NAPA. The only chain store auto parts store I will occasionally buy parts from is Kragen and that depends on the part.
