BLKMGK Posted October 10, 2001 Share Posted October 10, 2001 Okay, having trouble hunting up my engine's specs 1972 240Z (red) 383 SBC - Eagle crank, Eagle rods, Edelbrock aluminum heads (straight plug), forged pistons - Ross or Probe with about 9.5:1 compression, Victor RPM intake, Holly Avenger 770 carb, Edelbrock aluminum water pump, roller rockers, Acell billet distributor, Acell 300+ ignition, Flowtech block huggers 15/8ths to 2.5inch pipes to a single 3inch through a Sebring stainless muffler. I'll be adding 2 Dynomax bullets and 13/4 Rewarder headers "soon". Flat tappet hydraulic cam - specs are posted here somewhere. Need to find those specs darn it. Dynoed 300RWHP but I'm pretty sure the secondaries weren't opening. T56 trans, stock style replacement clutch. 3.7 R200LSD diff. Denny's Driveshaft cro-moly driveshaft. Holly "blue" pump and regulator. Braided -8 to the front. 4coil-over struts (SCCA's stuff) w/Tokico carts. Stock length struts for now. 17X8 Konig 5.0 wheels (5lug) 225/45 Nittos up front 245/45 Nitto 555 drag radials in back 12X1.25 brakes up front w/Outlaw 4piston calipers. 11inch solid rotors in back with Outlaw 2piston calipers. (SCCA's stuff again) We're still working on an E-brake solution. 8pt mild steel cage, Triangle 10gallon aluminum fuel cell. Battery in back in an aluminum box. Phantom gauges in all stock locations. Howe radiator, Cobra fan. Spolier up front, 'glass cowl hood (SubtleZ), MSA 'glass bumpers. Dynamat everywhere. I think that's it Not much "stock" left anymore. Have no idea what it'll run. Yet to be done is CVs in back and EFI of some sort. Have a spare intake to modify but may use a different one and have NO idea what ECU to use. Trying to quiet it down right now and get some bugs straightened out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleeperZ Posted October 17, 2001 Share Posted October 17, 2001 This is the second post in the Chevy section I've done - I'm an inliner and will probably stay one - unless I can get an OHC turbo V8 out of the concept stage. Car: 1978 280Z, bumperless, A/C-less, air dam, 2780lb with me and 3/4 tank. Engine: L28T, 175k miles, with 270/280 turbo cam. Turbo: T3/TO4 S-trim, not intercooled (yet), full 2-1/2" exhaust with stainless DP. Management: Stock fuel system with stock 300ZX ECU and MAS. I got 27 mpg over 250 miles @ 95mph average . Cooling: 280ZX oil cooler, 4 row radiator, Permacool electric fan. Suspension: Eibach progessives, Tokiko non-adjustable struts, solid T/C kit, urethane all around. On Dunlop 225/50/15 Z-rated tires, I pull 1.05G on the road course. Brakes: 280ZX calipers, 300ZX rotors, stock rear drums. Drive train: Centerforce II clutch, T-5 tranny, 3.90 open diff with a modified stock mount and urethane bushings. I finally got into the 14s (14.9 @ 94mph) at 5800' elevation, Bandimere. L28ET is a force to be reckoned with! [ October 16, 2001: Message edited by: SleeperZ ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
