Blocking MSA header holes
I just won a mint-ish condition header from Ebay for my 240z, only downside is that it has holes for smog equipment. I wonder what size are those holes? My original manifold has been modified (those holes are weld shut) so i cant check on that. CheerZ

First Time Solo Clutch Change - Lessons Learned
Good thread! I have few questions: i have 77 280z tranny and i have both small and big collars, when i bought the clutch i did not think any further and bought it for 240z, so should i use bigger collar? And does 240z slave cylinder work well with this setup?

Refreshing the old vinyls
I have my annual restoration on process (here winters are LOOONG and DARK, so might as well dismantle the car and do something about it) and i wonder could i "revive" those old vinyls somehow? Especially ones over the wheel arch, i'd love to soundproof the area but those vinyls are so stiff and dry that i fear i would destroy them when trying to remove. If there is some safe way to remove them, is there any way to make them nice and soft again? (im not buying repros)

Wish I paid closer attention!
Almost on topic: how the heck did you loosen the mph gauge nuts? i cannot fit my (shovel sized) hand there in any way. If someone could point me how-to-thread, it would be much appreciated.

So I pulled out my carbs..
This might have been covered in many threads but im asking anyway: what is the best way to get my SU's to shine like that? They went to ultrasonic clean but they still have some patina (10 times more dirty than yours when pulled off) on them. What was your way ninjaZombie?
