    I recently purchased new foam inserts and upholstery trim kit for my 1977 from the Z Store, which says that the foam might need to be modified. When I removed the old upholstery and foam, I found that the new foam doesn't quite fit. The main body foam slips into the frame perfectly but there is a plate over the headrest area which causes the foam to sit to high off the headrest. Does anyone have any experience with these foam inserts and/or can anyone offer me any recommendations on what to do? Should I modify the foam, or maybe remove the plate? Also, does anyone know what the bar on the headrest is? I don't remember see it attached to any thing when I removed the old seat upholstery. Thanks in advance!

    About a year ago, my grandmother passed away and she left me her 77 280z that she bought brand new off the showroom floor. It hasn't run for 10 years or so, so my dad and I tried to get it up and running. We emptied out all the old full and put new in, replaced oil, oil filter, fuel filter, plugs, wires, cap and rotor. Still wouldn't start. Figured out the pump wasn't pumping. Replaced it, but still nothing. Figured it was a bad relay and couldn't find a replacement. So I ran a switched hot line straight to the pump. It finally turned over and ran! Not well, but it ran. I finally found a new relay, installed it today, and reattached original wiring. Pump still won't turn on, though. Do I need to chase these wires, or could the issue be something else? Also, what else does this massive fuel pump relay do? It is too big to be just the pump, isn't it? Thanks for any and all information!
