Thx everyone the info was much appreciated. Car was in pretty good condition(compared to some I seen that guys went ahead and restored!) usual rust battery holder, and floor pans, rest of the car was solid(so far). Emptied the fuel tank(must have been full lol) and inside looks to be just varnish. Fan belt was rotted out and broke but I turn the crank over by hand and spun easily. Carbs appear to be round top SU's. Not looking to do any serious modifications but would like a little more pwr. (as "Tim the Toolman" would say OH OH OH!) Maybe some flatop pistons, change out points distributer and a header. I'll have to check the forum for some answers on that. thx again.

My wife"s father gave her A 71z some years ago, I kind of inherited it when we married. Decided to give a try at restoring it somewhat. my question is, I removed the engine and all indication are that it is a 280z or zx motor. could someone tell me what I have? Its a N42 block with a N42 head. This car has not run in probably 25 to 30 years been in a garage.
