I enjoyed your series. Blessings

Have you gone for good? This was by far the best Z build on youtube.

REALY ENJOYED THIS

Do they all come with shims already or is he adding it to the head ?

I have been loving this series, I enjoy your editing and commentary style, keep up the great work!

We would love to see more videos from you and your build, maaan!!👍🏼🙏🏻❤️

I have a 1971 240Z. I need to replace the slam panel, but I don't own a welder. I could do the other work and find someone to TIG/MIG it for me I suppose, but, there's other stuff on the list ahead of that. This week I discovered oil fouled plugs on two cylinders but they aren't next to each other. I feel like it's the valve guide seals. It's a freakin fresh rebuild (I bought it that way) and so I have to deal with that first. Your cylinder head vids were very helpful. My motor has a Stage II Schneider cam and I have NO IDEA what else was done during the rebuild....I have receipts, but they don't list the details, just the costs and generic "Rebuild motor" kinds of terms. So, now I have to get intake, exhaust and head gaskets. I just set the valves today, which will just be practice for after re-assembly when I do pull the head later this year. Anyways: Thank you! Honest vids. I like them.

Not gonna lie i was using this as my motivation and honestly a bit of a tutorial on how to do it myself, hopefully there's more to come, I'll gotta go buy that book for sure even if it is a little estranged at times.

Why did i think you sold this car. Great to see you are getting it back on the road. Just got a bit if rust removed from my car and back on the road. Dont give up.

what did you do about the crossmember that holds the gearbox? do you buy a custom one?

I just stumbled across this video, watched several of the Z restoration videos, actually. What happened after this video? It's like Sparkie just disappeared after making this video...

You gave me the confidence to try this at home, thanks bro.

I would shim the cam towers up instead of sanding off. It helps keep the timing where it should be based on chain length.

Man Hope you get some more vids out soon

Wow thank you for such a detailed video. Will def find this useful for my repair.

Hi there Sparkie...great video and really useful I've lost count how many times ive viewed trying to pick up tips on how to do this conversion. Ive now found a local gearbox place willing t do this conversion for me. Can I ask where you purchased your sealed bearing from please?

great stuff :)

That damper plate is factory mate 👍

Glad you’re back mate!!! Keep going!!!

Love to see you back at it man. Can I ask, where do you but your parts?

Nice to see the project to engine assembly. 🍃

I’m in the same phase brotha! Just yanked my crank 🤣 it’s perfect I just can hopefully hone cylinder 6 and clean it up and slap it back together!!

This is a great channel, any updates on the Z?

How's the car going?

what thickness sheet metal do you use? i'm just getting started on this repair. I'll need to pick up metal. Thank you!

awesome! i need to replace the same panel on my 260z also. thanks for the explanation!

Awesome job!

Seam sealer usually works best over epoxy primer, not so well to bare metal.

Awesome mine need replacing on my 1975 z. Where did you get the lines ?

Alright dude? That baba keeping you busy? Hope all's good. Loving the channel. Keep her lit

Beautiful color choice. Loving the series. Keep up the good work. Cheers!

Great work Sir! Just found this page and very hopefully!! Keep it up!

Great content SiR!

Great video, I have to replace the same panel.

Any thoughts on diff gear ratios?

Hey great video man! Thinking about doing this to my 280 after someone botched my rebuild... What was that solution you talked about to have the shifter in the same position as oem?

I have to say you should of just skimmed the top of the head

very helpful. i'm going to have to make the same repair

what kind of paint remover did you use? and, if you said it, i didn't hear, what did you use to prevent flash rusting? i just bought a '72 240Z, and i'm itching to get started.

Did you have any issues with the front brakes? I think they are installed incorrectly, the bleeders are supposed to be on top of the calipers.

I’m also doing a R200 swap on my 73Z but I need some help, I got a 5speed from a zx and my driveshaft fits into it but it looks too small for my r200. Would you recommend buying a zx driveshaft?

can you make your technical book available, I can't find any.

I recognise the gloves 😂

good job man = no one will be as well as you on your own car = yes sir = do it all yourself !

Do you have a pinion bearing number? Also - did you change the bottom bearing or didn't bother? Thanks!

Congratulations maaan!!! That’s the best thing in a man’s life is the love for there little daughter!!!💪🏼👍🏻🙏🏻❤️

Always funny to see when german terms like schutz or schmutz get used in english. Usually its the other way around 😉

Congratulations on the arrival of the little princess👶and looking forward to the build.

Really enjoying your videos, warts and all keep them coming and congrats on your recent arrival

If I ever get a 280Z, I'm totally stealing your technique for the frame rails.
