1969 Z Carb Date
I just purchased a X77 RS the engine is a CE DZ302. The carb is incorrect on car and I would like to put a correct 4053 on it but how important is date on a non numbers car? I can get a new service replacement 4053 for 1000.00, or a 934 date 4053 car is a 04C for a little more after rebuild. What would help the value of the car in your opinions?

My advice, enjoy it as-is. In addition to its fundamental problem, too many issues to address.
No such thing as a "CE DZ302."

I think what he was saying is the reason it is called a DZ 302 is because it has the DZ suffix on the pad.
I think this car was recently discussed here. To answer the carb question, if you really want the original 4053 Holley, you are much better off spending a bit more and getting the correct dated carb. That said, if you are planning to keep the car and it runs well than I would not be in a big hurry. Jason

What carb is on the car now? For the money you could correct a lot of small issues that are visible. Things like hoses, clamps, fasteners etc. The white interior looks fantastic. Mine is dark blue.

Just for what it's worth and not trying to nitpick, but if it's an X77, then drop the reference of it being an RS as you could not order the RS Option on an X77 coded car. Someone may have added it and that's fine, but an X77 car is simply a Z/28.
Being that you have a CE Block already, I would NOT waste any money trying to date correct the carb. If it has a 4053 carb in it now and it runs fine, leave it alone and use it. Looks like a decent little driver.

What is on it for a carb now beater? I have a 942 dated body (that needs a choke plate) plus I have correct metering blocks. You could use your current baseplate ....I need $350. PM me if interested. I really like that car - good buy.
