Choke lever mount broken under console
I've had the bracket for almost a year, finally got tired of pulling the ashtray out to hold the choke lever assembly. So I decided to put it on yesterday and it works great. I'm about to order another one. 2 things, read the instructions then throw them away and get online to look at better pictures. Use self-tapping sheet metal screws.

Quick Jerk When Letting Off Of The Excelerator Pedal
Here's when I was fooling with mine, http://www.classiczcars.com/topic/42497-bcdd-removal/ You could pull the wire off the solenoid to disable it and see if has any effect.

Pinch the hose to keep the fuel in it while you reattach it.

L28 About To Pull The Head, Any Advice?
Uh oh. Maybe it's not too deep?

Dash pot rod may need adjustments. The white plastic thing with an open hole that looks like there is hose missing. Or maybe the BCDD?

Is 3 In One Motor Oil (Blue Label) Any Good As Damper Oil?
I'm pretty sure that's straight 30 weight. Not multi weight. A lot of folks use ATF.

There's a hump next to the plug threads, I believe. Do a google image search and you'll see it I can post a picture later. I'm away from my February '72 E88 now. Sorry.

'73 240 New Paint Job - Gt-R Red And All Black Trim
I agree with that. I removed that heavy front bumper before installing the spoiler, it would get a little squirrelly when the wiper blades lift off the windshield. But now it's steady as a rock when the wipers do their dance. I'm going to have to find spoilers for the wipers.

I think Jasper is engine replacement chain. I've heard of them before.

It has both of the larger valves. It would bolt right onto a 2.8 block without any work but I'm putting it on the 2.4 block which requires some extra grinding so they won't hit the smaller bore of the 2.4. Bore releifs, notching the block and valve releifs are some of the terms I've heard so far. As for other changes I'm adding a better breathing cam coupled with it's accompanying componets. I should add that a smaller cam isn't necessary, I'm just bored. It's been a long winter.

My Distributor Timing Is Horrible
After reading through this, http://atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/distributorrebuild/index.html, I spent $100 for a newly remanufactored one.

I'm doing an E31 now, or a machinest is. They need the bronze intake vale seats replaced with steel, very basic start. I am going with the big valves like your P79 has. If you wanted to you could have the bottom of the P79 cut to raise the compression but you'd have to raise the height of the cam with shims to compensate. Member "Dizeased" has done a few and loves them but he goes all the way with his, all new cam and valve train componets. One day I'll hopefully be able to try his build. Here's a picture of one of his.

Water Pump Replacement (And Fan Clutch?)
If you can spin the fan more than one or two rotations by hand it's most likely bad. A new fan clutch won't even turn a complete rotation in my experiences. If it's running on the hot side (verified with thermometer in the radiator) more than 200 degrees you should have it boiled out or replaced. A shroud is tremendous help in my opinion. My temp gauge reads hot but they're known to do that. Take the cap off and stick meat thermometer in and let the thermostat open. Mine shows 175 degrees idling in the garage.
