Sh*t!!! you don't know what your talking aboutLOL j/k. I've gone well over 100mph in my z and It never left ground! Plus now it has the front air damn and rear spoiler. I think I should be able to keep up with him! He will beat me off the line bc i won't be able to hook up but at a 60mph start i'm with him all the way to 200mph my friend!!! Oh and trust me a 1100hp TT 350 sbc is enough motor to get it there!!! I wish who ever did that little calculation for me last time with 400 hp could do it again for me figureing in all of the variables but this time with 1100 ponies to see the thearetical top speed.

That is it even the same color!!!!! nice!! wouldn't it feel good to beat a 200,000 dollar car! with a 30,000 dollar Z???

Because you like 800-1100 horses and or want to kick the sh*t out of the guy down the street with the viper and possible give the $215,000 v12 austin martin vanquish in town a run for his money!!!!!

I'm going to go with weber carbs! Since mine just sold for $380!!! no I don't know what I would bring back, But i sure as hell would take POR-15 there with me!!!!!!!!

Do what I'm doing, drop in a twin turbo 350 sbc, that might give you enough power,,, ahhhh maybe not though!!!

They are not street legal then!

I know a Z that is sitting in the trees close to where I live that has triple webers. hmm I wonder how much I could get out of them? does anyone know what a set would run that probably need to be rebuilt??

I am also selling my SU's In a few weeks!!

C'mon spring...hurry up and wash the salt away. I 2nd that!!

Damn perfect timing!!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Dual-weber-DGV-carbs-off-of-datsun-240z-260z-280z_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33550QQitemZ8044803205QQrdZ1

Wow man i'm up i'm up!! what years of Z's are you looking for?? I just happen to know where a few are located in a few bone yards in NE. or are you looking for just parts???

i'm going to guess right around 350 bones. Well was I close?

The body work on my car is almost done guys!! i'm so excited! The rear fenders and innerfenders are in, new rockers and floors are in. The fenders are being bead blasted along with hood, all the blinkers and gas lid is filled in, and rear bumper gone and smoothed it looks great!! he is just working on putting in the new front frame rails and then the "precious" can come home!!! Also today I put up my Dual webers on Ebay for sale http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Dual-weber-DGV-carbs-off-of-datsun-240z-260z-280z_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33550QQitemZ8044803205QQrdZ1, and in the next week or two I plan on putting up my dual SU's and air cleaner for sale also!! things are coming to really fast. can't wait to get you guys some pics!

hmmmm I can't stand it!!!! HOW MUCH DID IT COST YOU IN GAS?!?!?!

Sounds great man! a road trip is always fun even if you end up getting nothing out of it!!! Let me know if you need any parts I have a SH*T load I need to get to selling, mainly just engine stuff and some other parts too!! good luck man!

I too have a question, I am only going to need carpet for the front floor pans and right behind my seat, not the deck area. I have not been able to find just those peices, does anyone have any suggestions or know where I can get these??

You can do it yourself, the JTR catalog explains it all and you can buy the speedo cable as well from them! it is kind of an expensive booklet but well worth the bucks if you want to do a v8 swap correctly!!!!

speaking of tachs and guages i'm going to pull all of mine anyone want to buy any??

The fuel cell was $250 and the bat. box was I think about 110 big ones, from www.summitracing.com

Just another update. I got my new front air damn w/ducts in from motorsports, as well as the california style mirrors, they both look wonderful. I also got my fuel cell and battery cell in, now I can start cutting away to make a frame for them all in back. Can't wait when I get more time and work on the z more I'll post some pics. here are some of the cells for now! aren't they great!!! http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=19341 http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=19342 http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=19343

you guys are doing it all wrong!! no my friend did this to his alum. block in his porsche, luckly my dad is a tool and die engineer. He came right over and fixed it this is what you need to do to get it out. Most likely you don't want to drill it out and retap it to a bigger hole. You get a smaller drill bit that the bolt size and carefully drill out alittle ways into the bolt. You get a special bit that cuts into the small hole and graps on to it and turn it out most of the time keeping the hole in perfect shape!!!!! I will have to ask him what the exact name of that little bit is that turns it out, and don't forget to spray the wizz out of it for a few days with wd-40 or similar product!!! Hell i could prob even get the bit and send it to you if you really need it. If the old man can get one out of an aluminum block in less that 2 mins you can surely get one out of your z. let me know if you want the bit.

A friend of mine and I moved mine. We both are are in great shape and can lift alot but still I think three or four guys could get it!
