have you got the version that take webber jets?

I'm not sure, but I didn't find the OER jets that difficult to find anyway.

you should have been asked when you ordered.  Just makes it easier for setup as everyone seems to have webber jets.

Why?  I was able to source the jets.  I'm properly jetted and have a drawer full of various sizes if I want to experiment.  Eiji can get them, too.

Jason.....I don't have a clue....I've never futzed with side draft carbs before....a totally new experience. I'll break it in with SU's then take it up north to my good friend Eiji......we'll install an electric fuel pump and some SK's (whatever he recommends)., then tune 'em! Then we'll head to Dinwiddie for a little head to head!!!!

Not mine, but thought I would pass along...

If you're using spiral core wires, make sure you use resistor plugs on a street car. Non-resistor plugs are designed for carbon core wires with a much higher resistance than modern spiral core wires. 

Resistor plugs on an Inductive ignition allow the flash over voltage to reach a higher peak than non-resistor plugs. Helps to  keep the plugs from fouling and suppresses EMI ( very important with EFI systems ). Most electronic systems specify resistor plugs, including the Matchbox. Only reason some of the early 260 and 280 electronic ignitions used non-resistor plugs was because of the weak output of the 1st generation Trignition units. The E12-80 matchbox of course is a much stronger ignition system than the early points or Trignition. 

Fired right up.....everything works perfect! The Excedy 240mm comp clutch is awesome.....put 20 miles on her, but it's raining, so It'll have to wait!

Isn't that rewarding when it just WORKS! 

You bet....and no matter how many Z engines I build, I'm always amazed when they come to life......can't wait to put this motor to task!

Another trophy on your shelf. You're gonna need a longer shelf!
