Shipping would add significantly to the cost. Too bad you aren’t closer, I could help you out. Dave Rebello is in Antioch, not far from you. Give him a call. Just make sure they detail the valve springs. ( you can tell him I said that too, as it was one of his engines that I mentioned earlier) Edited February 1, 2021 by Racer X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siteunseen Posted February 1, 2021 Share #28 Posted February 1, 2021 I can't find it too quick but somebody sold a Rebello motor on here a year or so ago for $2,000 if I remember right. It sold in maybe one day. That's a steal price. Quick google search and you'll read a lot of high HPs and positive comments on Dave Rebello. That 2.7 "purists" motor sounds good to me. https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-americamovil-us-revc&source=android-home&source=hp&ei=l30YYNjfOKGZ_Qbl9bfACw&q=dave+Rebello+classiczcars.com+&oq=dave+Rebello+classiczcars.com+&gs_lcp=ChFtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1ocBADOgIIKToHCCkQChCgAToFCCkQsQM6BwgpELEDEEM6CAgAEOoCEI8BOgsILhCxAxCDARCTAjoICAAQsQMQgwE6CwguELEDEMcBEKMCOgUILhCxAzoICC4QxwEQowI6DgguELEDEMcBEKMCEJMCOgIILjoFCAAQsQM6CAguELEDEIMBOgUIABDJAzoFCAAQkgM6CAguELEDEJMCOgIIADoECC4QCjoECAAQCjoKCC4QxwEQrwEQCjoGCAAQFhAeOgUIIRCrAjoFCCEQoAFQ1zpYuJABYOecAWgBcAB4AYAB2QGIAbETkgEGMC4xMy4ymAEAoAEBsAEeuAEC&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-hp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he knows a thing or two about Z’s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I sent him an E31 head some years back to mill, put larger valves and seats in, port and flow. My only complaint was the coolant passages were full of chips from the machine work, and they didn’t detail the valve springs. I called to try and address it and the response was I could ship it back at my expense, and he would take a look at it. I just disassembled it, cleaned it out and detailed the springs myself.

The head he did for me has been on two bottom ends I've built, I won a regional championship in 1997 with it, and it is sitting on my bench waiting for another engine to get paired up with.

z8987 Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share #32 Posted February 2, 2021 I’m keeping my series 1 stock. After talking with Dave I’m considering having him stroke it. Keeping the SU’s. Any thoughts on this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
