Hi, new to this forum just discovered it when i started looking about for parts for my Z. I bought a 240z a couple of years ago and haven't done much to it apart from running it to and from local shows. Its an early car but has been fitted with a 5.4 chevy engine. Given the current price of fuel and the 8mpg (if i keep the foot off the right pedal) then its time for the engine and box to come out. I've sourced an engine and 5 speed box from a 1980 280zx, plan is to keep it fairly standard for road use (its currently got dished pistons and an N42 head) maybe put in an uprated cam and a set of webers and a decent exhaust manifold ???. Would appreciate any advice on the engine build.
