Re: really cool 70 Z28..simply the best.
I believe the paint marks were applied after the hood hinges were properly adjusted.

Re: really cool 70 Z28..simply the best.
Charlie, you didn't have to drop the gas tank ? Was it bone dry?
Great to hear it run. I quickly got off the lap top and went to surround sound

Re: really cool 70 Z28..simply the best.
Charlie, how about a quick run down on what you did in preparation for the fire up. Did you pull the distributor and prime the pump? Drain the tank, change the oil etc.?

Re: really cool 70 Z28..simply the best.
Gary. I had pulled the plugs, squirted motor oil in each cylinder and let it sit for a couple days, turned with torque wrench on the crank and tapped the starter. The dist will not com out so there was no way to prime it that way. Squirted more oil in cylinders and cranked it over with the plugs out. Oil pressure light went out right away. Put 3 gallons of race gas in the tank. Had to file the points to get spark, pour gas in the carb to make it fire. When it fired yesterday there was gas leaking out of the carb from shrunken gaskets.

Re: really cool 70 Z28..simply the best.
When I pulled the float bowls off they were absolutely clean inside. Whole carb was clean. Just shrunken gaskets.
