drifta1600 Posted July 27, 2010 Author Posted July 27, 2010 It's looking mate. I must drop around and have a look at the progress. What motor combo are you going with. ill stick with the l26 to start with, then ill save up for triple webs, then save a bit more and sell the trips for a computer for my turbo set up :-) keeping the l26 though you can come around after Ive cleaned me shed! hahaha, or you wont be able to get in and have a look :-) i have plenty of time to work on the car but no time to clean up Quote
peter mc Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 hey that hatch look good .... if you need help with 2.6 give me a call. Keep it up mate it is looking good. Quote
drifta1600 Posted August 8, 2010 Author Posted August 8, 2010 Got a good suprise today! i found that the L26 that came in my 240 has flat top pistons, and it cant have been done long ago because the hone marks in the bore look as though it was done yesterday! Cant wait for the Weber's now! Got some extractors yesterday to! from a bloke down the road. (he once had a 2+2) sorry about the small piks, i got a new HTC phone, and i can get the KB size down and keep a big pik like i could with my old phone. hey that hatch looks good .... Yer thanks so much for that! it came up awesome! Quote

drifta1600 Posted August 18, 2010 Author Posted August 18, 2010 lookn good. My tripple dellortos are on the way :-) Quote
Scoota G Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 Yea that'll work. So looks like you'll have to jet those Dellortos, get some duel fuel banjos and remove the original Alfa air cleaner studs. Should keep you busy. I've got a large amount of jets and the like for Dellortos. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,5919.msg51510.html#msg51510 Rev's got some of them but i can lend you some if you want to play around instead of spending Squillions on ebay. The stor below would have to be my favourite. http://stores.ebay.com/ALFA1750S-CARBURETORS-PARTS-STORE_DELLORTO-JETS_W0QQ_fsubZ1038951017QQ_sidZ14256877QQ_trksidZp4634Q2ec0Q2em322 Quote

RB30X Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 You did the chopped front bumper thing. I was going to do that. Looks great by the way. Quote
drifta1600 Posted August 30, 2010 Author Posted August 30, 2010 Dellortos ON!! I got them on and started today. havnt tuned any thing yet..... Quote
reverendzed Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 You've got some wierd angles on your linkages there! from the firewall right through to the end lingage if your alignment isn't spot on it doesnt matter how much you attempt to tune, it will never be right. Take the time now to set up all of your linkages right, save a lot of heart ache later on. Rev. Quote
drifta1600 Posted September 11, 2010 Author Posted September 11, 2010 Ive GOTN A LITTLE DISTRACTED WITH MY NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY :-) Quote
drifta1600 Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 ahhh, its been a while since i updated my post. just ordered carpets today.. ill get some piks up once ive fited them :-) Quote
drifta1600 Posted October 24, 2010 Author Posted October 24, 2010 found some seats today on ebay, saas buckets, they were just around the corner from my house and the fit perfect, like the were made for a z. the rails bolted straight on to the seat, i just had to drill two holes on the seat mount on the floor, just to shift them in 8mm, thats all !!!! . i know there not originals but they were cheap and are in perfect condition, and i think the look and feel great! About the carpets- where did you order from?? got them from auto barn ill get some better pick when the interior is finished :-) Quote
lightmaster240z Posted October 24, 2010 Posted October 24, 2010 Drop around I like to try them out for a fit Quote
