I wouldn't mess with a z-series carb on an L motor. They have way more emissions ports. Sticking with the original Hitachi DCH340 and a rebuild kit worked for me ('80 720 with l20b), because I have to deal with emissions - otherwise, go with a Weber. (good place to order a Weber - http://www.piercemanifolds.com/default.asp    )

Do the 280ZX struts bolt up & fit the later HL 510's??

Nice score for a first car. Build it, drive it and surely appreciate it. Welcome to the house!!

Unfortunately we are having a hard time finding a windshield for the car..I found a used one but it is still in the car.. Hopefully we can get it out without shattering it. Anyways, my mother winters in Yuma during the winter..Anyone down in that area have a good one that she could bring back..We are in southern Alberta, I'm continuing to build and look for another.. Hopefully someone down that way can help me out.thanx in advance I'll try to get some pics up soon, as it is coming along, and almost to the painting stag, and the interior is almost complete less front seats.

Are the windshields glued in, or is there a gasket?

 

If gasket, just use a razor blade to cut the gasket off from the outside. The window will lift out with ease.

Ya it's glued in, and glued good to. Also it does have a small scratch from PO not having wiper blade. Thanx
