[SOLD] Complete Triple Mikuni Induction system
I can I can add that even though the price may seem high to some, madkaw is including around $800 or so in heat shield, jets, spares & misc. I am talking from my own experience. Buying a set without these and you will find out soon what the real cost is.

Spinning My Wheels... (Yet Another Wheel Thread)
I asked this question when I ordered my Rewinds. They said use the "bulge" style lug nuts. Not the tapered ones.

Unseasonal 68 degrees here today. Trying some different jetting then one last drive. Then on jackstands to get wheels off the ground for winter. Drove her less than 300 miles this summer.

N42 head on California 1975 280z
My L28 is a N42 with N42 head. All the valve seats are steel. I don't really know if mine came from a 75 or 76 model 280Z.

Drivers side fiberglass headlight bucket
There was a pair just on Ebay for 2 weeks that were what you are looking for but sold. Sometimes you have to buy a pair to get what you want. A single of the side you want that needs no repair are very hard to find. Very lucky if you do find one.

N47 Head Removal Problem
Yes, I asked the vintage race engine builder that has done some work for me. When I asked what he does he said 30wt oil, set down and let drain for 20 minutes. Then install and torque.

Selling my beloved Z. Where to start?
If that were my car, I would send it to Mecum, Barrett Jackson, Russo & Steele or Gooding and Company. I would not even think twice. But to each his own. I think they would recommend you raise the car back up some to get more attention. Many potential $$$ buyers are not after that look.

Oil leak source?
Count me in with the exact same issue. Leak for the past two summers. Not real bad. I think mine could be transmission seal because I changed to synthetic Redline gear oil. I don't think the old origional 1978 transmission oil seal likes that. Clutch is not slipping. Car gets put away for Winter in a month so no fix this year. I guess in Spring I will drop the gearbox and replace both the transmission seal and rear engine seal.

Fuel not reaching filter/fuel pump
I have an electric pump on my 1972 connected to the factory preinstalled wiring. It runs with the key on and engine not running. Can't speak for a 260Z. But you can hear the pump if it is running for sure.

clutch question
I installed a Centerforce clutch kit with my aftermarket light flywheel. Never any problems with mine. Not sure what they are refering to.

Genuine Datsun 240z JDM/Euro Spoiler
Came from Nissan Motorsports catalog a very long time ago. They are no longer available as far as I know. Try Japan or Australia for a JDM origional. Not likely to find one however. Just replicas.

radiator
My 2/72 build did the same thing at the exact same spot. In my case the radiator had the core replaced as the origional was plugged up too bad to flush. A while after I got it back this happened so it could have been done poorly at the radiator shop. I took it back and they repaired it and never a problem after that. Over 20 years ago now.
