Hi all,
So ive just bought my 260z, and know absolutely nothing about them, and a little overwhelmed venturing into this project
I do have mechanical knowledge from previous builds, but mainly to do with EFI and turbos. I do have a 1L N/A carby van though which I tinker with haha
But this time around ive decided to go against what I know most about, and go down the N/A carby route!
So have decided in rebuilding the original motor and keep the car more "classic" spec.. and learn a thing or two along the way
My plans for the rebuild are:
Original block, freshened up with new piston and rings
I want to run a cam, but no idea where to start or what to even consider.. any help?
Im investing in a triple carb setup up, Mikuni or Weber - thinking 40mm
Should I be looking at a different head for the L26? P90, E88 or something.. I don't know the difference!
Does ignition need to be upgraded? I definitely do no want to run mechanical dizzy (if it has one!)
The car will be used for a weekend/street car. Not looking for huge amount of power, but would like something a bit more powerful than stock!
As for drivetrain, im planning to run a stock 260z box with stock diff.. or should these be looked at?
Is a 280z diff stronger?
Any help would be appreciated!
