Thanks Willoughby Z. That is exactly the part and with that part number I was able to find it at JDM-car-parts.com $85 with free shipping. Thanks again! Bobby

My water **** has recently started leaking. While I'm changing that out I will also be replacing the heater core, whatever new hoses are available and the part I will be needing. My '74 had A/C.(no longer) The hose connector between the engine compartment and the passenger side of the firewall is currently with the A/C vacuum water **** that comes just before the water valve that you adjust the temperature with. I no longer need that piece. What I'm looking for is the Non A/C hose connector. I have a pic of what I'm looking for. This can also be found in the '74 FSM on AC-55. <-- Click to enlarge this may also be the same in earlier and/or later models, not sure about that. Let me know if anyone has access to one of these that would be willing to part with it. Thanks Bobby

Perfect! Thanks guys!

Hey thanks Jim. Yea. that would be a help. I can't tell by looking if it's fine or coarse thread. Bobby

Tried to find it in my FSM some other Z books I have and searched the Z car forums but no luck. I've been checking but cannot seem to find the size of the two nuts that attach an R200 diff to the mustache bar. Size and pitch? (16MM X 1.5 maybe?) I'm doing a swap on my Early 260Z and had assumed the R200 were the same as the R180 diff. and was going to use the R180 nuts. Ah well:finger:Thanks ahead of time. Bobby

Thanks ezzzzzz I do have some mods. Triple webers, header, Monza exhaust, lite weight flywheel, Centerforce Stage 2 clutch. Daily driver when it's sunny......... No winter use (I'm in the northeast) Would the scenario change if I also swapped to a 5 speed?

Hey all. I've read some conflicting thoughts on what differential I should be using. I have a early '74 260 that had an auto. I did the conversion to a 4 speed ( I already had one from a 260Z ) The stock diff I believe 3.545 that was being used with the auto is still there. What should or would be best to be using. I'ld rather have more lower end. Thanks ahead of time Bobby

Same thing happened to me about a year and a half ago. Was driving me crazy why I couldn't get it running properly. Well, here's why........ Damn ring! I've since installed a completely new head.

Seems to me a 302 Ford V-8 was in the one of the Sunbeam Tiger models? http://www.mustangandfords.com/featuredvehicles/mufp_0707_1965_sunbeam_tiger_mk1/photo_02.html

Maybe a bit late, but your clutch pedal adjustment?

Here is a link to some pics that may help while you're working the swap. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20794&highlight=auto+manual

From a fellow early 260Z owner, welcome and all the luck with your Z! Bobby_Lee

:cheeky: BlueMeanie that's another one of my $ hobbies that I get to spend my not so disposable money on:D And besides my 260Z doesn'[t like getting air like that.........

Hhhmm sure wish you were on the east coast. Conneticut or Maryland? Not bad............Anyone in the NYC area?
