Is there any difference in the Valve cover of an early 1970 Z car as opposed to the later models?
– The early Z’s had valve covers that said “NISSAN 2400” – they changed when the A/T Transmission cars came out, somewhere around 10/70 (HLS30 12658). From that point on most of them said “NISSAN OHV” – although there seems to be an overlap period of some months that cars were equipped with either style. A: – I also had a rare (in the states) Japanese market valve cover that was slightly taller and square like (not as much curve in the transition from side to top and over the timing chain). It was stamped simply “NISSAN” in very big letters by comparison to the normal valve covers. Q: What is the best way to clean the exterior of the rebuilt SU Carburetors to make them look new again? Since we are restoring this car, we want to make sure that everything is done right the first time. A: – Take the entire intake system off the car – pack it up and send it to Scott Bruning… he’ll rebuild them to OEM appearence & show standards – plus they well run correctly.
