This is a great build thread, thank you! I am currently swapping a 71 240Z with an L83 and a CD009. After reading your thread, seems I have generally the same issues as you. I did try all the factory, Holley and Summit brand manifolds with no luck. I seen your build thread and created the manifolds after what you did - nice work BTW. My 240 was a former small block swap and had the old square mounts, so I built off of there. Yes, motor sits a little high and forward for my liking. However my Serial 9 shifter lined up perfect, so will handle this issue later down the road. The LT1 intake cleared, however I put a Holley extension on the front to push the throttle body lower and further out. I am using the 4 core radiator which was in the car with the small block swap. Back in the day, someone really put a lot of money into the thing. So questions:
1. What lower hose did you use? can i get a number
2. What would you caution me on, what lessons did you learn.
and thank you
