  1. I'm going to do that except i'm going to use"Signature bed liner".Rhino sucks.
  2. Lemme see if i can find it first.
  3. I think i have the mounting bracket.ANd i have an 18 &20B kicking around.So i'll be able to tell if it'll mount.How "hot"(pun intended) are you for this stuff?
  4. Since you are in the Peoples Republik of Kalifornia,i have to agree.Webbers won't pass smog visual.Putting a header on it will not help at all.ANd don't remove any PC stuff.Speaking of which i'm parting out a 79 KC California model. You can rebuild the motor but don't go higher than 10 to 1 CR.And that is the ragged edge for a driver.
  5. There are no guarrantees.One bracket will be right for a 508 Sanden,but not a 507.If he is selling the whole thing(meaning compressor & all)it SHOULD work.But what's a little fab work....right?:rolleyes:
  6. http://tucson.craigslist.org/cto/1203807229.html A 210 wagon for $200.00
  7. THe majority of "Lake pipes" mystique was their sound.Sorry to say,but ANYTHING other than a V-8 will sound horrible.:(
  8. To put this in perspective,he is talking about living in a town that the Cops come on to YOUR property and arrest you for drinking in public ON YOUR FRONT PORCH.:fu::fu::mad:
  9. You forgot about the sleeve-less cylinders.That motor was an abortion that lived.
  10. That black thing is ugly enough to make the other vehicles start themselves up and leave the property.:blink::eek:
  11. Nothing has changed.GM never learns.I went to my local cruise night on Saturday.A new Camaro was there.THere were two holes(horizontal)just in front of the front wheels on the lower part of fender or lower bumper wrap-around.THey looked out of place,so i asked the owner what they were for.This frown came over his face as he told me that the chin spoiler blew off on the freeway because the factory drilled two holes at each corner and then used TAPE in-between the screws to hold the CHIN SPOILER on.ARE YOU SH!TTIN' me?Tape to hold a spoiler on? Brand new much anticipated new Camaro.Indy pace car,blah,blah,blah And the spoiler is held on by tape. GM NEVER LEARNS...NEVER.:fu::fu:
  12. Front & rear window seals are available at just about any glass shop.It's the 1/4 glass seals that are a biotch. I'll take two sets.

    overheating...

    First replace the T-stat.I've had SIX in a row(4 bad out-right and and two that were out of spec)that were NFG. 3 were Mr.Garbage 1 was a Stant 1 was a dealer part 1 was Robert Shaw
  14. You MIGHT have to shorten it.MIGHT.SOmeone who has done this swap in th epast 10 years should remember.THe last time i did it it was 97ish.But come to think of it,i put a Z 5-speed in a 85 720 and everything was a bolt in.No futzin' around. The Z five speed will bolt to the Z-20,22,24 motor but will be "clocked" wrong.The shifter will have about a 10 degree tilt.(the Z motors sit straight up in the bay.The "L" motors lean to the passenger side.)
  15. From the looks of that panel,someone let Rosie O'Donnell sit on their tailgate:eek::blink:
  16. A 280Z 5-speed will bolt up.There MIGHT be some drive shaft tweaking to do,but nothing major.Make sure that you use the throw-out bearing collar that matches the clutch itself and NOT the vehicle.
  17. I think it's doomed to failure if they try.Idiots working at Nissan dealers today are clueless to what a"Datsun" is.The general public is worse.Resurrecting icons is a crap shoot at best.Look at GM,every name badge from the past they have brought back has been a miserable failure(typical GM).The 2004 GTO being the biggest flop of all.Ford flopped with the T-bird.Only Chrysler has had success with the Challenger.
  18. If i remember correctly,they have somewhere in the neighborhood of 4.88 gearing.Fun around town,but you're not going on the freeway. They are neat trucks.I know a guy in Phoenix that had one.
  19. Too bad our distributors are too small for this: http://www.davessmallbodyheis.com
  20. I'm going to do the bed and the floor of the cab..that's it. Look into "Signature bedlining"-Rhino sucks.
  21. Zeto-is that the Burger place across from Golds?
  22. The band all metal bands are judged by..Black Sabbath.New disc out this week.It's called "The Devil you know".
  23. Second thought...just get someone to show up and it's yours.
  24. Steady timing.Points bounce.When points bounce dwell changes.Dwell changes-timing changes.Timing changing is not good. As far as the E-distributor Vs. Pertronix goes,you have Datsun quality vs.after market add-on with questionable quality.
  25. $2000.00 oops,too many zeros...20 bucks.
