Hole in side of block??
There's no source of vacuum to help evacuate the system . It's just vented to the atmosphere . And if that filter assembly , or whatever it is , doesn't breathe properly than it's just a plugged system. I would run a pcv valve off of some vacuum port on that manifold . Put a small filter on the valve cover

280ZX Distributor Advance Curve Reference
Jeff, I would think you are more the exception than the rule as far as being able to run vacuum advance. I wouldn't recommend anyone with a performance built L ( assuming higher CR) to just bolt a ZX dizzy and roll. Maybe your application of mostly hard throttle and WOT the vacuum is not a factor Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

Your getting trannies mixed Cliff( I think that's an oxymoron ) Only turbos had the BW T-5 (81-83) ZX (81-83)NON turbo had the close ratio. Preferred by most Bolt in with no mods Turbo requires mods but gives lots of shifter options Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

That would be the ideal scenario , but maybe not realistic for me. Lots of measurements and eyeballing is about the best I will do. I will be measuring combustion chambers to make sure they are equal. Sent from my iPhone using Classic Zcar Club mobile

Size? Fuel Line Replacement
It seems to me I remember some hoses actually being a better fit with 1/4" hoses. I think maybe the supply from rail to carbs is actually 1/4". The 5/16 will work clamped down hard enough , but the 1/4 slides on tightly
