The 240-Z is one of my back-in-the-day (and all-time) faves too (along with the Alfa Giulia Veloce). It still moves my needle--A LOT.
In 1970, I was trying to sell Porsche 914-4's against 240-Z, and there was a Datsun dealer next door. The 914's sticker was $3999, stripped. The 240-Z's was $3499, fully-equipped. And it had POWAH. And killer looks. And John Morton was cleaning up in C-Production in the BRE car. So, good luck with that, Pilote...
Drove one once, back then. MUCH better street car/daily driver than the 914-4. The 914-6 was a better track-day car, but it stickered at $4999--43% more than a Z.
I was wondering what the name is on 4th picture down on the velocity stack mount plate? I have an old 67 Alfa and have built the motor and a friend who passed away left these stacks to me But no mount plate....any help would be greatly appreciated.

Love those velocity stacks. Wish they'd fit my 240Z.

Great story, thanks!
