andyk_79 Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Looking for some thoughts on who to get to do some basic fabrication for me. With the Fujitsubo headers fitted I need: - throttle return spring mount (I need to look at this as I don't understand why the factory one doesn't work with a change of exhaust mani !) - Custom heat shield Alternatively if anyone on the forum has the time I'm willing to pay (cash, beer, pizza etc or any combination of the three). Once again I'm afflicted with 100% love of Z's but close to zero knowledge of how to do these things! Quote
Cozza Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Stewart definitely does great work but I reckon these could be things you could do on your own with a couple ideas. Here's my heat shield. The ally section fixed to the rad was folded and welded professionally after I gave him a cardboard template. But the Payen exhaust heat shield was bought from Repco and was hand folded and fitted. The top was just squeezed between the two manifolds with a bit of hand forming and the lower fixing is just a bit of 25x25 ally angle and some ally plate cut, filed and bent to suit the engine mount. All up took me a couple hours and no special tools needed. It's the cheap, effective and rewarding option Quote
