black240 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hey guys I just wanted to share with yall the strokification of my s30. Here’s what’s happened thus far. Took the Datsun Parts LLC stroker to Ericks Racing Engines. There I had them disassemble the block in preparation for balancing, since I heard LLC just slapps their stuff together like that. Lone behold I find dirt under the head gasket (see attached image)!! I’m having Elias Alaniz take care of the porting. He did a baseline run of both my p90 and n42. At low lift the p90 beat the n42, but the same could not be said twards the higher numbers. Ill post a list of values so yall can check em out soon. So far hes pulled off 208 cfm .550 valve lift 28" of H20, keep in mind this is an intermediate reading. I removed my current mikuni intake manifold and carbies from my current l24 today. Gona drop em off tomorrow to further the head work. I’ll keep yall posted with the results! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect240z Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Hey man! I didn't know you were on hybridz. you know what video blogging this is a great idea! i just gota find my camera charger heheh Yea man, had to join! I have been doing a lot since im fully restoring my car and doing some minor upgrades(i.e. triple mikuins instead of Su's, oil catch can, electric fan, better raditior) And if I can get my wife to do this...suede/alcantara like interior. WE'll see on that one lol. I just pm'd you my build thread. I'll be watching yours, I was going to do a stroker build later on, but I may be turning away from that since the price to put it together and the amount of power you get is not a lot. I did however get a MN47 head and can do flat tops on my spare f54 block and run a high compression with a better cam and exhaust. We'll see good luck with your build! I'll be watching.

Perfect240z Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 ANy updates on the build? What else should we not buy from Datsun LLC lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black240 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 ANy updates on the build? What else should we not buy from Datsun LLC lol Weeeeeeeeell. today ended up being a intake day. I stopped by the shop after class. we slapped on 3 different IMs on my ported n42. At 28" of water and 550 lift (i think it was 550) we got the following info: Raw Head CFM: 207 With SK Racing (Ported) IM: 197 With Cannon IM: 161 With Mikuni IM: 145 I figured i would stick with the cannon since super fast response is not as important as potential power to me. The mikuni's the shortest of the bunch. sk is the polished. cannon has a big ars stamp on it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

black240 Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 How much is this stroker build costing you? If you don't mind me asking... Hey sorry about the lag. So far ive spent about 3500 on everything. Note, this build is by no means complete! as a matter of fact i thought i could get away with re-using the aftermarket clutch... boy was i wrong.

BluDestiny Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I didn't know you had an aftermarket clutch. What do you still need? and how much did the all the headwork cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black240 Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 I didn't know you had an aftermarket clutch. What do you still need? and how much did the all the headwork cost? yea me neither! we found out when we pulled the l24. as for the head work price i was very hooked up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black240 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Share Posted June 26, 2012 oh snap, i forgot to update! To Do: Need a catch can, 2mm head gasket (im to cheap for 100 octain), finish porting, optimize my jetting, LSD, wider/sticky-er tires. heh, even with my grip less clutch im still breaking loose coming out of corners. Mods: Well since we were tuning last minute for MSA we ended up drilling the main fuel jets. So i went ahead and recently replaced them with 165s from WCR. I also bought an Exedy Stage 2 clutch kit since my current clutch is giving out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZIPPY Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I'm bummed I missed MSA this year, I would have liked to see that thing run. My Z wasnt ready anyway. What did you make on the dyno this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianZortiz Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Did you finally port exhaust on head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black240 Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 Did you finally port exhaust on head? nope! my porter is currently working on a head for JohnC. I figured i would give him some space until he's done. Not to mention, i think my current 5 speed might be going out. ive got some grinding from 1-2 and crazy grinding (when pushing it) from 2-3. so i dont want to mess with the head until i sort out some power transmission troubles. considering the way i drive, i need an lsd NOW. furthermore, i was beating the sh*t out of my Z and managed to spring an oil leak somewhere around the timing cover. It leaks in just the right direction to make my belt slip '' to be honest i want to pull the motor again and do it over. I used alot of the parts that the stroker originally came with, and i honestly believe that was a HUGE mistake. flippin datsun parts llc, how you make my head hurt.
