Playing with resizing some pictures. Don't know if this will work or not. But anyway, this is my wife's Z that she daily drives. I've made no attempt to move or insulate any of the factory lines.
I do run a 1/4" thick base plate gasket to help with heat (probably can't see in the picture), and I still have the heat cross over open so the divorce choke works, but I haven't found the need for any type of heat shield under the carb. I was open to that option if a problem existed, but it's driven fine for the last 2 years without.
I was a little concerned with vapor lock since this is our only daily driver that uses a dead head fuel system. Everything else here is a return style. But it's proved to be a trouble free driver. It's a true 11:1 compression and runs fantastic on the 91 pump we have here.
