Thats pretty poor form by the engine builder to not check the gasket size. That could have produced some serious pre ignition
-
Its not all about the plugs potentially popping out. 40 years of running on a road engine builds up a lot of gunk in those oil galleries The tapered plugs are designed to plug the holes after extensive cleaning in the hot tank and with nylon brushes

Sorta looks like a datsun cherry rear end combined with a zed

I think it was a few hundred for shot peening and finishing. Was packaged up in the total diff build so don't know exact numbers. Not really sure if it is a permanent finish. I would think so if it is not on a wearing surface

I sent my brand new r180 5.1 R&P to be Isotropic Finished at neat gearboxes in SA. Haven't used the diff yet so cant comment on strength. Supposed to reduce oil temps as well

I have a 2nd gear roll pin shear on the selector fork on second gear a few months ago (71b) . Would go into 2nd sometimes and not others. Might be something to check if you have the box apart

kind of looks like you can take of the pinion flange and then unbolt the sensor. Maybe have a look whats underneath?

Awesome ledge! Those little slides test the reaction speed! How do you find the gearbox now you have had a few events? I have been tempted to get one for my 1600? Do you think the quality is there? The price is pretty good compared with the other boxes around

Wish i could find a option 3 for my 1600. Hard to get a box with a 1:1 1st gear for a high rpm 4 cylinder

Looks Awesome Ledge! One of my all time favourite zeds

Rear wheel hubs jamming after new bearings???
lampy replied to Z.'s topic in Brakes / Drivetrain Components
I know on a 1600/180b trailing arms which is nearly identical to a 240z/260z there is a letter A, B or C stamped on the top on the bearing housing. This corresponds to a A, B or C on the spacer. Different letters are not interchangeable. Some spacers are larger to adjust the crush on the bearings. It may be the same on the Z rear hubs. I think it talks about it in the manual -
Sound good for the welding rod. I hear quite a lot people welding with 4130 rods and not stress relieving/normalizing. ER70 s2 or erw80 s2 are the rod of choice without heat treatment. On a side note i hope your not using 4.6 grade bolts anywhere. 4.6 grade are garden grade bolts.
-
What filler rod have you chosen to weld these together? Are they to be stress relieved after welding?

Wet Blasting Using High Pressure Cleaner + Sand
lampy replied to benny's topic in Tools and Equipment
I have one of those attachments. They work well but you do need a fairly high pressure unit. around 3000 psi I just use ordinary builders sand that i sieve with a wooden frame with a piece of flywire attached. You need to make sure the sand is fully dry or it can clog the nozzle -

This is a very good deal. The best bolt on HP you could get One area of a l series you need to spend a little money -
Is it possible to get the open and closed lengths and maybe some photos of the upper and lower attachment. Hopefully i can make it fit a 1600 rear end
