  1. I have a manual transmission which came stock with one set of points. I popped in one of the Mallory distributors and enjoyed lots-n-lots big smile high reving until I smoked my crank bearings! One expensive part leads to another... :stupid: http://www.centuryperformance.com/mal-4763901-pr-MAL-4763901.html
  2. At least I've been out n00b'd on this thread... http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=n00b
  3. Just wanted to report that yes indeed, the seat bottom straps (strapped in real tight) with new foam put you up quite a bit. My guess is as much as two to three inches! Butt feels better though... :cheeky:

    Might want to ask the guys at Arizona Z Car
  5. I like the chrome-n-black wheels matched with the same on the bumber. Very balanced.

    Clear (vs. Orange) turn and running lights. Pretty sweet looking with the silver paint. :cheeky:

    My 240Z did that alot when the throttle shafts in the carb we're leaking sporadically. Before a real fix (aka Z-Therapy carbs), I did what you did and kicked up the idle. Check for vacuum leaks from the air mass sensor to the manifold including your power brake, distributer vacuum advance, etc, etc. The thinking is the hard rev generates a large vacuum and a leak develops getting air into the cylinder that the air mass sensor isn't measuring and the FI leans out too much causing the stall. Keeping your foot on the throttle keeps enough measured air intake to compensate for the leak and the hard vacuum situation to go away for the leak to seal up. Wonder if a bad Oxygen or temp sensor would do that as well, but the condition sounds similar to my carb leak.
