jbc3 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Hey from an OLD timer. I have not posted anything here in years and (to tell the truth) rarely logged on and read much either. I still have the same old 78 280z, LT1,6speed/R230. After blowing up my motor back in 2009, I put a stock bottom end 4 bolt LT1, a small cam and just the ported stock heads I had. I drove it to work on nice days and that is about it. Busy at work and busy at home with my wife and kids. (getting old) I guess you can say I was tired of driving without a little extra power. So I tore the motor apart and put new pistons and bearings, put the 847 cam 234/242 .575/.595 112lsa in, 1.6 roller rockers and Trick Flow heads that were stage 3 ported by Lloyd Elliott on with the modified LT4 intake with raised runners. Most of this was the top end that came off the 385 stroker that I blew up. I only have a few hours on this motor, I just started it this past weekend and drove it to work today... looking forward to breaking this in so I can enjoy it again. Here is what it sounds like now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYNNR_hmYcU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhptom Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Sounds very healthy and it looks like you have some wide meaty tires in the back, but probably not enough to handle all that power!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
