  1. Sounds like a good plan. Build your 31 head and don't be shy about the cam, it will still drive good and idle fine with that cam. I'd shave down the head to about 39cc or less if you get 91 octane . And yes to bigger valves - intake and exhaust .

     Is there different cam I should be looking at with this build in mind? 

  2. Ok so.....  

     

     

    I drive my early 260Z on a lot of road trips and its about to hit 100k (160-168 PSI pre cylinder).

    The factory motor still has an ok shape C Cam, I run rebuilt early SU's with a Mallory mechanical advance distributor and coil. 

     
    So I wanna keep the factory block in the car as i'm keeping the car "stock looking" also.

     

    So what i'm thinking of doing in slapping on a E31 head to bump the compression and a schneider 274F cam maybe add bigger valves?. (I have 2 E31 one heads on the parts rack.)

     

    So what do you think about this for just a road car? I'm not looking for any thing crazy just touring/street motor with more compression.

     

    Not looking to do any L28 or stroker work.

     

    Thanks

  3. Would you be interested in some rewinds? They're 15x7 with a slight offset that fits the stock body lines very well. I can get pics if you are interested. 

     

    edit: tires are hankook radials. 205's

    Matters photos would help

  4. Hello friends?

     

    So my rear springs seem to be shot,Time to replace / Upgrade.  So What should I use , I still want a nice stock height , I Would like to avoid an inch drop.

     

    So can I still get springs some AZC or should I just get the 280Z Ebach's?

  7. So hello and thanks!

    My early 260Z Has some problems i'll give you the specs..

    *Stock motor early 4 screw SU's rebuilt by ZTherapy .
    *Mallory Unilite Distributor mechanical advance and some old Mallory coil that gets pretty warm when running.
    *I added light and turn signal relay kit some time ago.

    Everything else is stock.
    My problem is the coil is only getting like 9 to 11 volts max sometimes and makes me think i'm no getting good spark.

    Also sometimes car will crank fine, but won't spark unless unless I add a Jump box.


    What should I do?
    Is there a newer better ignition system I should be using that will help clean up and help car run better?


    Is there a shop or any one chicago who can help really dig into these car and iron out my issues?

  8. So my cam oiler tube took a dump and started to eat away at a lobe on the cam.

    The cam I have now is the datsun comp C cam.

     

    I would like some thing close or simple to replace it with. Maybe a little gain but not a ton.

     

    Motor is an early 260 which was rebuilt at some point. Motor is to clean in the head and paint on the block.

     

     

    any help would be great!
