Electric fan or new fan clutch/shroud for my 240z?
Do both but a ceramic header from MSA.

L28 Timing chain
Put a zip-tie around the new tensior to keep it together while you get the chain on. I could only find a ZX kit when I built my 2.4. Worked great but it has different hole spots on the guides. I used the inner holes and got the chain really snug. From what I read you shouldn't be able to see any of the metal on the tensioner when it's all together. Get a new oil pump while you're at it.

I was a Series I for a couple of years. Things changed now I'm a higher Series, a very higher Series.

Pipe Connections
If you decide to buy the hose from MSA call them and give your CZC.com member ID, 33599 I think and you'll get 10% off.

‘77 280z smog test failed on fuel evaporative control funtionals
You can buy a 3/4" PEX coupling for a splice. Only a dollar at any hardware store. Use worm gear clamps or zip-ties to hold it tight.

Putting in a replacement L-28
Down here with all our humidity I keep a couple of stereos in my gun safe that has a dehumidifier built in. It's fire and water proof so the dehumidifier is kinda redundant I always thought. I bought a gun safe dehumidifier from walmart that I use in my 240. Doesn't work very well though. It's filled with silica that turns green when it's moist. Plug it in and overnight it heats up changing back to orange.

Fuel Lines to Fuel Rail Mixup
I have the cheaper and more available Fram g2 filter before the OE fender mounted filter. I change the cheap one when I do an oil change. They're just a few dollars.

I agree but unfortunately it's a mid-term election year. Mr Putin knew that when he decided to invade.

Looks great! I've racked my brain, "library", but cannot remember anyone say it was easy. You pushed through and it definitely paid off. You might have a side gig?

Nissan OEM Manifold Gasket
I did. The metal goes on the header, soft side against the head. Soft side against the cylinder head.

Restoration of BringaTrailer 240z - HLS30-35883
That's my story too. I had a Ruf 911 slot car body on a Whisper Jet frame. 20 years later I bought a '82 911SC. Kept it 10 years or so then got my brain back and bought my high school car, #305 280Z. Best decision ever, eh one of the top 10.

Captain Obvious is dying to fly down and work the bugs out. He's that special kind of guy, extremely helpful. You have the plane he has the knowledge, zip it up. I would but my dog is not feeling well.

Z's only a mother could love thread
I think Phillip is having fun stretching those pictures? Could be a LSD Whopper he's munching on. I've had LSD sugar cubes back in my past life. Laughed for 10 hours, slept for 20.

Bought 4 hubcaps
The red Zs are over $100 from MSA. Blems are $79 plus shipping. I'm about to figure out this e-commerce thing and make some extra dough-ray-me. Not with these scallops though, they ain't leaving except in the hatch when I sell it.

I found 4 original scallops today for $100. They look great too. pictures when I get them, they're already removed from Marketplace and I didn't get a copy of the image beforehand. They will be the last original parts I need for when the time comes to sell my baby doll. Many years from now.- saturday night music thread
