Hybridz-KY

I probably won't change my mind...but i might run out of money, so then I would really be in a pickle. I'm about a month or so away from starting that part of the project, so I'll check back with you then, and if it is still available, I'll take it.

The car hasn't been completely lockedd up in storage. It probably has 200 miles on it in the last 5 years (I had to hide from my ex-wife during my divorce!!). And I've already started it this year, so it's still running, but since the carbs are coming off anyway, i'll go thru plugs/filters/fuel lines, etc when I do the swap. I also have a 280ZX that I put a 350 V8 in. So,the rest of the story will be that I am selling that 350 V8 (it was built by Hovis racing in St. Louis) to a guy and taking that money to build out a 240 block that can handle the triple Mik's . then I'll put that built out 240 motor with the Miks on it back into the 240 and sell the 280zx shell (which I had restored with all new body panels and new metal), which will get me down to 1 Z..the 240. I couldn't find any pix last night (my old computer blew up a while back and I guess the pix were on it). I'll go to the storage barn this weekend and get some. Does anybody have any pix they can post of some "show ready" SU or Weber carb setups?

can someone give me a quick carb 101 on the difference between the SU's at z-therapy and the weber's at zcarparts?

Completely stock engine. no mods at all. I'll grab some pix tonight if I can find some. The car is in storage (and has been for about 5 years), but i may have some pix somewhere.

First of all, I know zero about carbs...my motto was that I always wanted to know a good carb guy, but never wanted to be one...except my carb guy retired and moved to the lake, so here I am. I put triple mik 44's on my stock 72 240z for show purposes. And it worked, I was in six shows and got six first places. Mission accomplished. But I gave up the fun of driving, in order to have a car that looked and sounded pretty sweet. I'm now going to remove the Mik's and put "something" else on. Don't know what the something is. I see a lot of posts about Z-Therapy, but I also see these Weber's on Zcar parts: http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/PFFC02 What's the diff between the two? I still would like something that shows well, but I'm tired of not having the fun driver that I once had. So goal #1...performance ahead of fuel mileage, goal #2 is to have it look good.
