Final resting place

Had quite the adventure down to Long beach for JCCS 2011.

I'll have a few updates about the trip upcoming.

My old website:

In an effort to get my car running I ghetto fabbed this:

Any idea what it is?

It's the engine water inlet off of a 240z

With a giant bolt shoved down the heater core water inlet

Held together with JB Weld, and JB Putty

It actually worked out OK, but it's not the prettiest

I'll be replacing it with this:

Available on 79-83 280zxs (and possibly other same year L series)

The heater core inlet is threaded on this piece
whereas on earlier models it was cast as one piece

So I threaded it out and popped in a 1/2"NPT plug

Cool!
