Tony240ZT Posted January 28, 2002 Share Posted January 28, 2002 I have a stock 280ZX Turbo that I have fully rebuilt, it looks like new. I'm trying to sell it for $240 + shipping. Your best bet really is the junk yard. If you can find a car that has been in an accedent, where it looks like the car was running up until that point then that's probably an okay engine to stick into your car. If you want a like new engine then just refresh the timing gear, bearings, rings, seals, do a valve job, replace retainers, ect.. Sure you can do bolt ons around your block, but your long block wasn't designed for the flow characteristics of forced induction. Check out the haynes manual on how to test the individual components of the EFI system, and if you test everything before you walk out of the junk yard and find that it is all good, then you are getting a great deal.
