That looks good to me. Your tensioner has full contact with the chain. I used the outer hole and it's been good but different kits work differently. I put a ZX kit on my 2.4. It was super tight but like I said the car runs great, revs up to the moon. Your call. Whatever you like is what you should go with. We're looking at pictures, you are with the actual motor. I don't doubt you'll be fine using either hole. Like Zed said it is the slack side. I like the full contact of the tensioner too. Sleep good tonight with whichever hole you use. It's all good!

Could you draw a center line on the cam towers and use those for centers? I do that when I adjust my valves.

If you're a visual type maybe you'll see what I'm saying. "Unload" is what my Dad said???

I was gonna see if I could come out there and live in you and Kathy's yard after the lady at the grocery store said she didn't need a vacation if we all had ours. Dumbest thing I ever heard so far but todays not over yet. Then I saw how hot it was out there. Y'all may want to move into my rental house. I'd give you guys a good discount. ❤

HaHa Zed! You must first equalize the air pressure in each tire and hope your concrete floor was done correctly.

Cliff's Alabama Tune Up Drop your baby off and I'll beat the $^!# out of it then charge you $1,000. It's way cheaper than sending it to Italy. Guaranteed by Shaquille O'neal. Fill and chill.

Knowing the engine sits lower on the passenger's side you can tell right off which motor mount goes on which side.

A very muched stressed topic in the ztherapy.com dvd. The flat bar isn't flat at all. You bend it until the opposite ends look the same as far as parallel goes then put it on and then you may need to twist it to get it working smoothly. There's some videos on you tube you can see what we're talking about.

Well you're not a D as far as I've seen. The filter fits between the tank and the high pressure EFI pump where there's nothing but drain from the tank. They're good BEFORE the high pressure pump.

Have you put in the best choke holder? Best money spent, or top 5 I guess.

What's the story behind that? I've always heard FIAT, Fix It Again Tony. That's Italian right? Tony Soprano, Tony's Pizza, Tony's spagetti sauce etc. Tony bologna.

I'm not sure this is what you're talking about but thought I'd share my experience on one I bought. Make sure the J hose that connects the nozzles to the float bowls have the soft rubber hoses and that's not holding them in a bind. I bought one that had regular fuel hose instead and the nozzles weren't coming all the way up. Garage smelt like gas all the time and the carbs were adjusted witout knowing that so there was some back it up and start over issues to get things right.

Mine do it warming up, extra fuel I suppose from choke on the 240 and cold start valve on my 280. Then it goes away after an "Italian tune up" romp.

If you use a small bottle jack or some kind of jack under the "A" arms to take the drop down load off it'll make things a lot easier to work on. I figured that out changing the tie rods. Just jack it up enough to level out the weight, none down and none up. You'll see what I mean if you give it a try. Whoops! Stub axle up front. "A" arms in the back.

Make sure you've had a few beers first, you'll be more beleiveable (at least in your head}.

Push the guide in and use the back hole here, is what I'd do.

Plenty of beer wisdom too. I should change my last name, eh? -Cliff Clavin

My garage door is covered with that stuff from cranking when the door is down. It shoots out a cartoonish "splat" after warm up and then revving it up during the winter months.

It comes in plastic jugs and you need good airflow with it. The fumes are bad up close. I've done a couple of gas tanks using it in my garage with the doors up, open. Poured the used stuff in a 5 gallon bucket and put a good fitting lid on that. Kept it in my garage using it for small stuff for a week or two.

You should follow this word for word. Same car as mine and yours. I did it. Very simple. All we can say is "wow". Thank you Phillip @240260280 https://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/distributor/index.html

I tried a magnet on the OE intake/exhaust gasket from 1972. It wouldn't hold itself but definitely had some pull. That's the old stock exhaust manifold from Nissan. The gasket that came with the 6 into 1 header from MSA had zero pull from the magnet. It feels like thin cardboard. So Mr X is right from where I'm standing along with MSA. But! my Nissan metal exhaust covered gasket pictured above is as quiet as a church mouse with the header. I did not use the MSA supplied paper/fiber gasket. Just a bulls**t observation is all. "Whatever works"

You should add a clear filter between the tank and pump also. Cheap and easy to check for crud that may be in your tank. https://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/fuel/g3filter/index.htm

I've always balanced them by removing off the rod instead of the piston. Seems like the same end result is what we want. Total weight per assembly and I ground off the sides closest to the pistons. As the "bluebird of optimism" says "whatever works". @Captain Obvious

Bought it my local dealership. They had to overnight it of course but they still make them. I think zcardepot.com has them as well. If you make out the p/n let me know and I'll get the receipt out of my file. Looks like 14035-E4610. Google that and see what pops up. Yeah that's right number

Mine's got a lot! Not in it but outside of it.
