Thanks grumpy I'll pass on them I checked out you buddys C4 site not bad but a bit boring to look at good info there needs a vette "Babe of the day" or somthing much better the the 3rd gen F-body board I use it loads much faster!! ( I HATE dial-up) Keith
I was offered a chance to buy a set of 462624 Heads yesterday they are complete minus the rockers. they are 76cc 202/160 heads look to be in pretty good shape the price is $110 plus shipping is this a good deal or should I pass? I was planning on using them on my 383 or a TPI 327 both have flat top pistons any thoughts please I hate to miss on a good deal but can't waste money either Keith
I found a RWD turbo 200sx in the boneyard is there a chance of it being a posi unit if so will it fit my Z? I have to make an appt. to get the rear lifted(it is a u-pull-it yard)and the rear disks are buried in the mud could not just spin the wheels and check the cover is not finned if it matters. Keith
Hey Kevin thanks for the imput I picked up the How to build mopar power $20 bucks. I found a good set of 360 heads at the JY on sat another $50 I need to pick up about 50 HP PAW has a good cam for about 155 bucks (mopar purple shaft) this and a good 4bbl Holley and a AL torquer manifold should do the trick. I'll let you know how it turns out!! Keith
First off let me say that I know NOTHING about mopar interchances. what I have is a 86 318 1/2 ton truck (I use this to tow me and the race car to and from the track) It is a bit under powered with the 318 was considering a 360 swap but first my wallet said can't we just build the 318? I need a TRUCK motor lots of low end grunt this truck wears 33-12.5 shoes and is 4WD Please help this truck is very important to me it just needs a good shot in the arm!!!!!! Keith
Jim,
The 3.08 is from an 82 vette (Dana 44M) Gumpy thanks for the input. Emissions are not a problem, does that change the cam recommendation at all??????
How do C4 stock exhaust headers flow? Will they work with this? And fit a Z???
Keith
I have a SJ 327 sitting here it has flat tops and a set of 882 76cc 1.94 intake. I was thinking of putting it in front of a TH-700-R4 with a Holley 600cfm (vac 2ndarys) to see use as a street motor in my 73 240Z w/ 3.08 rear gear and 27" tires. Any input on a decent cam would be helpful Keith
After running a search I learned that I should use 280z tubes but are 2+2 different from the coupes? Is one better than the other? I'm not in the shop right now (nor have been for a while) so I have not measured them to look for the difference, also why are the 280's better? Keith
Has anybody heard of this place? www.datsunrestore.com they have a seal kit I am interested in but am a bit hesitant abouy buying from the great unknown Keith
I have an entire L03 305 TBI camero. I was wondering if the stock EFI will support a 327 or will I max out the injector PW? the 327 is an old small journal with flat tops. Keith
I have an entire L03 305 TBI car. will these electronics fit a 327 or will I max out the injectors? I bought this car as a backup while my rx-7 is getting a new motor and I may just drop these electronics into my z but only if the 327 will work with EFI if not I'll hold out till my 383 is finished!! Keith
The check ball lock-up mod is VERY simple get a check ball from and AOD unit and place it under the lock-up solinoid and remove the plug! The best part of this is you get lock-up on top of 2nd gear! this will blow you away!!!! Keith
I needed a cheap back up car. So I bought a no rust 305 TBI th-700R4 88 camaro. It has a billion miles on it but runs good, and the price was right. My question is what was the HP rating on this car? I was planning on using this as a shake down motor for the Z. Then install the 383 after the suspension was proven! what are a few good bolt-ons for this motor. I was thinking about swapping the EFI on to a 327 I have in the garage But will this intake fit my early style heads? I'm not sure what the change over year was. Keith
Thr main reason for no turbo is NO MONEY I have a brand new ported motor on its way the carb and intake I have is to good to toss and to expensive to sell if I could add a turbo to it I will but six port motor + turbo=big bucks! Keith
I know more than a few people here are in to rotarys and was wondering if anybody could help me. I'm looking to build a 200 RWHP 13B. Turbos are out of the picture. Too much money. Is this possiable? I need a recipe for this little beast PLEASE help if you can. I will be using a VERY open exhaust, and a Dellorto 48DHLA carb and a twin MSD 6 ingnition Thanks much. Keith
