Engine Bay

Hello! New guy here. So, I run an auto repair shop, and I'm currently working on a headache of a 1981 280z. The customer brought it to me in pieces. I've rebuilt the engine already, and now I'm just putting it back together. The reason I'm here is I'm hoping there are some super nice enthusiasts out there willing to post many photos of a STOCK 280z engine bay so I can get this guy's car back together exactly how it goes. I appreciate any and all help, and apologize if I posted this in the wrong section.

That'd be great! Every little bit helps! I've acquired a ton with Google, but the zoom quality sucks on most of them. Thanks a bunch!

I documented the condition of my girl friends car before starting a complete restoration on the car. Probably some of the pictures can help you.

Her car is 280ZX 9/81 build date. I think this makes it a 82 model.
Many of the hoses are original to the car having never been replaced. The car has not been driven since the mid to late 90's. I'm just saying the engine compartment is not pretty but is original. If you need other views I have over 500 pictures of the car.

Photos are 4000x3000 resolution and about 2MB in size. I suggest you save them to your computer and open them with something other than a browser.
