Strut Bar Plans / Specs
Has anyone seen plans or specs for a front or rear strut bar? I ask because by looking they seem simple but the price seem a bit high. I have access to a neigbor that builds hot rods and if I had plans I would build my own. If none are available I will eventualy build my own and post the plans to the group.

Should users log-in to read forums?
I am very new to this whole Z world but very experienced when it comes to using news groups and knowledge bases. You see I am a professional computer geek! So I live on the web and constantly surf for tech info in order to do my job. When I became interested in getting a Z (mid life thing) I started surfing the web for info on the car and found many sites. What I liked about this site was that I could view the forum without giving out my email address and it's wealth of information. I think this site has the potential of becoming the number 1 Z starting point on the net so we (you) need to treat it with care. If and when we get adds lets avoid the pop-up windows, I never look at them I just close them because they wizz me off. I would respond well to a “What is on sale†link on the main page. Also I do not mind sale flyer emails from vendors.

Replacing Head lights
Does anyone have any experience with switching out the sealed beams on a 240? I am also thinking of placing driving light behind the grill. Has anyone had any experience doing this? Thanks

dash
I have a brand new out of the box dash for a 71-72 (it has the indent left of the hazard switch) I am not sure if I want to put it in my car (it came with the car) or sell it to someone that wants a perfect restoration what does the group think?

Strut question
I just got my 71 240 and it needs new struts. I have read all the threads on here and want to know if anyone has used the Gas Ryder struts from Autozone. The reason I ask is two fold 1. I am looking at making it a standard street car. 2. The Gas Ryder struts are only $24.99 for front and $29.99 for the rear. If anyone has any experience with these struts on a Z or other car I would like to know what you think of them.

I just got a 1971 240 and was looking at the engine and noticed that it had the air injection system that was not hooked up. Is this standard on a Federal or California 71?

Rear Hatch Weather Stripping
Can anyone recommend an inexpensive source for replacement weather stripping for the Rear Hatch and doors? I just picked up a 71 Z and had to use duct tape around the seam to keep out the exhaust fumes.

I am picking up a 240Z in a week and have ordered the parts CD and would like to know what you consider the best repair manual that you have used. I have one for my 620 Pick-Up and it could be better. Thanks
