Need a little help here
Ok Datsun_Husky seems to be too shy to post here some Im asking you guys to help with this problem
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNdIDZ5UIqc
The ignition thing hes talking about is a 280ZX dizzy Im giving him. Im assuming he still has points in the matter
73 260Z with a L24 Engine
EDIT: and he doesnt need any of the emissions stuff nor the intake heating system

ok for starters, its a 73 and those flat tops are rubbish, if he dosent need emissions rip those carbs off and toss them in a lake.
get a set of 3 or 4 screw round tops and an emission free mani
the vacuum hose to the booster he was guessing about is right.
on the fuel pump the inlet goes to the fuel line, and outlet goes into the the larger tube to the fuel rail, the smaller end of the fuel rail goes to the return line.
Im still watching the vid so Ill get back to you on the rest of the questions

even getting an emission free balance tube would get rid of alot of his emissions crap
also have him DL the 73 and 74 FSM

Would you recommend the L24's original carbs? I still have them laying around packed up somewhere.

Yep, got the other manifold too. I'll try and do inventory of what I had with it all when I got the car, both engines were halfassed especially the L24

Old school cool is a plus lol I still wanna build the same engine the Devil Z used! L28 3.1L F54 Block P90a head (Im going to use a P90 tho) and twin T3/T4 Turbos (and a few other things I dont remember off the top of my head)
Speaking of which where can you even get the stuff for a 3.1L anymore?

far as I know its always something youv had to source yourself
89mm pistons
73' L24 9mm rods
L28D crank
Id use smaller turbos than twin t3/t4's one t3/t4 is enough to crank alot of power out of an L.
youd prob wanna run twin t3's at most
