Courtesy Nissan in Richardson TX says the part number is 77700-89914 and they run $1.60 each. They do not have them in stock but think they can order them. Too Intense provided the following info: "We have them listed in the Nissan metric size, I'll list them below for you. 25 mm = 4.25ea 35 mm = 5.45ea 40 mm = 5.65ea 55 mm = 13.95ea" Looking at a ruler, the ones I think I'm talking about are the...hmmmm...the opening in the floor pan is 1 3/4 " which looks like 45mm on the ruler, so maybe it's the 55mm plugs that would be right. I'll probably try through Courtesy first since I can pick them up when I'm in Dallas.

Okay...so high school auto shop was a long time ago... I had some work done on my '73 a couple of years ago. The major piece was the replacing of the flat tops with a couple of round top SUs. The mechanic also put on a pair of those "Ramflow" air filters in place of the original orange air box and filter. This was originally a CA car and so he also ripped all the emission stuff off...I could finally see the engine! Here's my question...I was under the hood the other day and noticed two things: 1) The PCV hose that terminates into the top of the valve cover is just hangin' at the other end. I assume that it originally attached to the orange air filter box. 2) Both the mounting plates for the ramflow filters have plastic tubes on their backsides that are open, not attached to anything. My concern is that dirty air is being sucked into both the valve cover and the air intake. comments/suggestions appreciated. Thanks

Short time reader, first time poster... While replacing the carpet in my '73 z I found there are several holes in the floor pan that have rubber plugs that have pretty much rotted away. I think there are two on each pan sort of under your feet, one smaller one under each seat and then that one in the secret hiding place under the ash tray. Anyone know where I can get replacements for these? I don't find them in VB or motorsports catalogs. Thanks!
