Hi guys,
I have a 327 motor available and needed something to put it in. I have always wanted a Z so I figured that would be a fun and relatively cheap base car for the motor.
I am curious about a few things
Is there a "best" year 240 to start with? Right now I have my eye on what appears to be a clean body 73 240z for 1200 bucks. It has a rebuilt motor that needs a few odds and ends, how much could I sell the motor and tranny for?
As far as v8 conversion goes what all is necessary? I know there are kits for the motor mounts, how many different sources are there for the conversion? I may just build my own mounts. undecided there yet.
What transmissions do most people use with their SBC swaps? Does the transmission bolt in or is modification necessary? I am interested in pulling a t-56 out of a camaro if that would fit with not to much trouble.
Does the 300zx lsd bolt right up? what differential is recommended?
All I can think of at the moment. sure I will have more questions pop into my head.
Please excuse my general lack of Z knowledge. only ever admired them from a far.
