SEARCH!!!!!! seriously dude... The z31 isn't like the rest of the Z cars... if you cant search for the info, you probably aren't going to be able to handle the car... Its a fabricators car. You need to possess a brain to get **** out of it... As we told you on Z31p, let me give you the quick answers.... Fabricators car. Can be made better than a lot of other Nissan Chassis'. Lighter than the Z32, with just as much engine space. Accepts V8 swaps VERY WELL. It feels stable...Search Streetfighter (compound turbo 2jz Z31) and Benedict No, YOURE THE FIRST!!!!!!!! DOOOO EEEEET BRO!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously... search... There are at least 5 members that are either done/near completion with all the info you could need about swapping a Chevy v8 of either Gen 1, 2, or 3 into your Z31. Its not a honda... We do our own work. If it can go on a 240sx, it can go on the Z31

its not that hard... If you would like, i believe i still have my mount templates, i could copy them for you if you would like (for a nominal fee of course)

There is a thread on it already. http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php?/topic/2777-how-much-did-everyone-spend-on-their-v8-conversion/ I advise making the search function your new best friend.

I'm sitting right at 7000$ for my LT1 Z31. Almost ready, i have about another 500$ worth of stuff to buy. Still need to finish off the fuel system. I need the lines, FPR, and all the fittings. Should be on the road soon.

They had two versions of the LT1. The early 70's LT-1 and the one you're thinking about, the 93-whenever(i forgot) LT1.

You can go to HD/Lowes and order almost any of the Rustoleum Colors in Quarts, and most in gallons. I work a the Special Service desk at Home Depot... I've ordered a lot before.

Yea... I had to introduce my trans tunnel to Mr. Sledge for the TH350 because i wanted to sit the engine back as far a possible without cutting the firewall to retain a good weight balance. Your engine bay has so much stuff in it still lol. I took out everything not related to my needs. I still need to cut the harness out though. I just haven't felt like tracing all the wires. Probably next week. Damn you guys and your Gen 3/4 engines... I get to use a Gen2 LT1... Im not baller like you guys.

Believe it when i see it. I've seen a lot of people saying they're going to do a swap, but less than 10% actually do it. Read through the threads posted, and you shouldn't need to ask too many more questions.

Well, if you had taken the time to look for like... 10 seconds... you would've seen Zmechs thread with his Z45 build... Since you don't have that ability, i am going to say to not to the swap, because you more than likely wont be capable of completing it...

*coughcoughtoldyasocoughcough* lol You could probably fit a big block in there if you really wanted to. Or, if you wanted to go auto, 350 w/ TH350 fits nicely.
