Hi all.

I bought a L28 motor from the late great John Williams, and I am getting ready to install it, but I decided to do all those upgrades that I would want to do later, while it is still on the stand. I bought a ZX distributor yesterday, but when I went to install it, I didn't see any way to secure it to the front cover. Are all front covers the same on the L-series? I will take pics tonight and add them, but I had a dead moment at work to get the ball rolling.

I'd rather sound like an idiot and get the problem solved than keep my pride and never find the answer.

Look at this and you'll see the mounts are different.  You'll need a ZX mount.

Thanks, site. Where in AL? I am in GA.

ok, I definitely need one. Now...off to the searches. I bet this isn't gonna be  easy.

Correction, was easy. Arizona Z had one.

I'm in Northeast Alabama, Etowah County, 2 hours from the ATL either way.  I-20 or 411 to I-75, better scenery on 411 to Cartersville.

 

 That ZX swap really woke my 240 up, the points were all screwed up and I know nothing about setting points.  I bought a Crane PS 20 coil from amazon.com, the ZX dizzy needs the ZX coil and that Crane has the 1.5 OHMS, same as the ZX coil.  Very happy with my set up.

I am about 1.5 hours away from Cartersville, on the same road, though, GA 20. I will get the coil soon. Thanks for the site!

Where ya at Cegg11? I think I have one in the garage you can have. 

I'll remind you guys about Z Con in Memphis,  http://zccazconvention.com/conventions/2015/

 

We have to meet up. 

Too late, Metal. I ordered one from Arizona Z. If it is bad, or they end up not having, I'll send you a message. I am northwest of Atlanta, though.

Does that part show up on the Arizona Z Car web site or do you have to call them?  I tried to find it but the AZC site is kind of a mess.  There's someone on another forum looking for one.

No kidding, so am I. Let me know if ya need it man. I'll dig it out just in case. I think I've even polished it.
