Just Another Damned Z Car Project Thread
duffymahoney replied to conedodger's topic in Open Discussions
I doubt he remembers any of the details on it. What exactly are you after? Honestly it should be super easy for them to do. Bring a stock dizzy with you, then tell him to make the jeep dizzy look like the stock dizzy. That's really all I did. I also have car at my house, so I can take measurements if needed, but again, you don't need any of that. Just copy a stock distributor. I think you are over thinking it. -
280zx alternator installed. That was easy! I found a rebuilt 60amp. Which tested at 65. I like the internally regulated aspect.

The block color was scanned and then matched, from pictures it looks a little light, but hopefully in person its perfect. It's hard to judge block color, mine darkened with time/ age, but the parts with none of that the blue is pretty light.

I have been dreading this repair. Trying to figure out why my passenger window won’t roll up. I got so lucky on this car. Zinc is somehow still intact on my series 1 door internals. I can’t see any real rust. I think the front slide is frozen. That’s all that is wrong.

Tps adapter for throttle bodies or carbs. The idea is to turn the stock throttle shaft down on one end to 6mm. Then this threads on. IMG_9238.mov

You don’t have to ruin the stock at all. stock dizzy the keyed cog or whatever you call it comes off. Then you need the pedestal. That’s it. Jeep shaft has to be cut, notched and matched in length to the stock dizzy. Then the cog gets pinned onto the jeep shaft. That’s it. -
Crazy Les is getting 3L out of a stock L24.

Google is your friend on this one, but honestly I just took it to a machine shop with my stock dizzy, I just had him match the shafts and key way. Worked perfectly. -

I honestly just gave him an old distributor and then the jeep cas. I told him to make the jeep identical to the stock dizzy. I believe he cut the shaft, then he mimicked the slot. Then drilled the shaft for the stock pin. Then pinned it together.

Vintage Sk throttle body update. I think I found a injector style I like and a oring I like. The injector has a long nozzle and 8 tiny spray holes. The O-ring is some Porsche 16.5mm one meant to adapt newer style injectors, but fits perfectly. Almost too tight, but firmly presses in. Shouldn’t leak air at all and remain snug. I also picked a fuel rail for my vintage ITB. It’s the stock that Tsumori uses in Japan. I couldn’t find anything I loved. I will be doing clear anodized on the fuel rail parts.

My vintage SK throttle bodies look pretty darn amazing after vapor blasting. Casting quality is good, not as good as a Mikuni carb. They should look amazing on my 240z. These are late 70s or early 80s. Now time to re zinc all the parts and rebuild them! FullSizeRender.mov

Well the compressor came. It’s 28” deep instead of the 23” their webpage says. So it’s a tight fit. My wife isn’t happy:) Its pretty darn nice. Internal pumps and such are all weg, which I like. I am hopeful this is the last Compressor I ever have to buy.- 126 replies
