    any color other than black?

    in Body Kits & Paint

    Posted

    My car is painted a viper red and I need to pick a color for my front air dam, ZG flares, and hatch louvers. The logical chose would be to paint them gloss or flat black. But this combination has been done to death.

     

    I am looking for opinions on alternate colors to paint my front air dam, ZG flares, and hatch louvers that would look good on a red car.

    lowering spring questions......

    in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis

    Posted · Edited by logan1

    I don't know if it is the angle of the picture but looks like the front fender is about 5" above the wheel. I'm not a 100% sure but I don't think there are any aftermarket springs that lower the car more than 2". If you want to get the stance of your car right you might have to go to coilovers or be prepared to cut the springs. Also I'm assuming you know the problems associated with cutting springs.

    Buying a SBC of Craigslist

    Hey guys I'm buying a SBC of craigslist and was wanting a little input on the engine in question. I am interested in motor No.1 for $500.

     

    Below is the ad as it appeared in CL:

     

    I have 3 motors for sale or trade 1st is a 350 4bolt main new main and rod bearings lt1 rods oil pump flat top pistons new 570 lift crane cam lifters and comp valve springs full roller rockers edelbrock intake 2nd motor is 350 bored 60 over with mild cam and round 10k miles needs intake carb and dist to run 3rd is a crate 350 with around the same miles I got rid of my chevy truck don't need the motors and need my garage space back 1st motor 600 2nd 300 3rd 175 call or text 9186395886 will trade for bout anything or best offers

     

    In his email to me the seller stated the following: "I have everything but distributor and Carb needs the valve springs put on and heads n intake bolted up and its ready to go. Also the motor has Double hump heads on it."

     

    I am well aware that you cannot tell if the engine is worth the money or not without physically inspecting it but thought that if nothing else you guys could give me a good idea of what to looks for and what questions to ask the seller.

     

    any and all help is appreciated.

    superchevy.com built a 400hp SBC for $1000

    I am hoping for some input from people who are experienced with engine building. I was wondering if this is actually possible or did they doctor the results just to give the article a happy ending. Per the article they got 407 hp at 5,900 rpm and 410 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm; if this is true this is incredibly good value for money.

    Louver for my S30

    in Parts Wanted

    I believe those specific louvers were made for S130's but they also fit earlier Z's that may help you on your search to find one and also help someone looking to sell to know where to look. :D

     

    Are you sure about that information? I dont think the S130 louvers will fit a S30.

    Borg Warner T5 with a 3.70 or a 3.90 diff

    in Drivetrain

    Posted · Edited by logan1

    Hi guys,

     

    I am currently in the process of swaping a BW T5 and a R200 into my 240z. Currently my car is running the stock L24 motor with a racing cam but i would like to replace it soon with a L28et with approx 300 whp. The car is going to be a daily driver for the most.

     

    In your opinion will the 3.70 be a better ration for the BW T5 or will the 3.90 be better. I am afraid that if i swap in the 3.90 my gears would run out too quick. Keep in mind that i will be swapping in a Turbo L28et motor soon.

    R200 SWAP parts needed

    I need to pull the R200 cover to confirm 3.90 gears, but I would do $125 on the rear end, $50 for the axles and shipping which will be around $80, I'm guestimating at this point, but I'm sure I'm close due to the wieght.

     

    What car did the R200 come from and how many miles does it have on it. Also the half shafts have to be from a 75-78 280Z that had a R200 diff.
