Hi there.
I have a `73 240Z with original block and 4speed tranny.
I`ve recently started the restoration and replaced everything you could imagine except for the engine and the tranny. I`ve got 45 mm triple Webers, 6 barrel ceramic coated headers, msd electronic ignition, new heavy duty radiator, distributor new manual and electric fuel pumps, brake master cylinder, clutch etc etc.
I also replaced the bushings, engine mounts etc. The problem is as you would have guessed is the transmission.
I want to replace the stock tranny with a 280Z 5 speed transmission and I want to keep the original engine. My question is, what else should I get with the transmission and what kind of a rear end should I get for better performance?
All help is much appreciated and thank you in advance.
ERIC
P.S.: I`m located near Pasadena, CA. If you have a 5 speed transmission for sale in Los Angeles, Orange County area, I`ll come and pick it up.
