Redline Tripple Carb setup Question (240Z)

[rdtripp]

 

Hi all. I'm new to this forum, and fairly new to this Datsun 240z I'm working on. Here's a little background information. Car sat in a garage for 27 years, owner pulled the motor/trans 10 years ago. It came to me for the body and paint as that's what I do, restoration of classics. So that's all been finished. He just recently had the engine rebuilt, trans gone through, and I've reinstalled that with a new clutch assembly and new slave cylinder and related parts. Also new power brake booster, master, etc.. including lines and same with fuel system. The customer decided to get rid of his old carburetor setup, and go with the Redline triple 2 barrel carbs with a Canon intake manifold and the factory exhaust manifold, purchased from California Datsun. He wants the pollution stuff gone. I see the Canon intake doesn't have anything close to the factory setup at all. I'll send a pic with this post of how it looks today. Essentially I am trying to sort out what exactly I have to do to make this all happen. If anyone can help advise me as to what needs to be deleted and what needs to stay, I would certainly appreciate it. I'll call California Datsun later, they've already offered help in assembling the carb set up and fuel system, and I will presume they'll help with this too. I don't know if I'm ready to call them just yet, I'm looking for info from the guys that have already done this so I have some pointers..lol. Thanks in advance, Chris
