260z choke lever mount issue

Recommended Posts

Hi

Have seen several posts contained in the forums that discuss a choke bracket to remount the choke lever onto the transmission tunnel. The retro-fit item available on ebay

240z choke lever bracket in eBay Motors | eBay

works for the 240z only - I have an early '74 260Z & the ebay bracket will not line up. Anyone aware of a similar 260z solution for this issue - trying to avoid fabricating a bracket myself if there is already a working design out there.

Thanks Rich.

It does say you can use the earlier choke cables on your 260. Finding them would be the only problem. I wonder how much they are off. I did put this in my '73. The dimensions are wrong on the instruction sheet, so whoever buys this should be aware. It would be much easier with tech screws as well, no need to pre drill.

Yeah - I did see the choke cabel comment, but as you say, finding good ones in working order can be a pain. I was hoping the 240Z bracket could be easily modified, but seems like that may not be the case

I didnt have any problems installing it
