Just Another Damned Project Thread

That's why I also opted for using my flywheel for the trigger- less stuff

But it's just another item you have to find space for and more places for leaks and maintenance . I thought about that route myself , but opted for the in tank option.

Madkaw, show me more about your plan. I went to their site but what you've told us so far is pretty general...

I have two of the NLA euro dampeners. I think though that I'm going to use this instead. Pardon the stolen pic from the MSA site. 

Thoughts?

Well I don't know how to save the pic, but here's the link to the pump

There's a video on how to install. I remind you that I am running a non Z tank, so your results may very:) Not much of a plan but to cut a hole in the top of my tank and drop this in. No surge tank necessary.

I used the same dampener on my stock 240 motor and had a problem with the belt with matching up to the other pulleys. Belt slipped all the time. Check them before installing.

I understand that there can't be more than 1/8" alignment variation. If it doesn't work, as I said, I have two of the euro dampeners.

Ahh, I see. I want to use the stock tank so that is out. Thanks for the show and tell...

Some good ideas on this thread, http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/123146-240z-tank-modification/

Looks like a fun project, Bob! If you don't want to run a stock damper (nothing wrong with them unless old age has fatigued the rubber) I'd suggest running the BHJ Dynamics damper Dave sells. It has an integrated crank trigger wheel but looks like it may be a bit late for that.

Leon! My inspiration for going digital! 

Leon pulled into a carb clinic I organized sporting EDIS and the smoothest idle EVER!

Glad I could help luring you to the dark side.

Leon,

i don't think of it so much as going to the dark side, as I think it is bringing the car into this century. I get the style of the original which is classic, but the accuracy of a modern car. Let's face it. Stop light to stop light, we get beat by minivans. 300HP and almost that in torque evens that out. Controlling it all digitally is icing on the cake.
