Tsunami Robinson Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 My wife's father gave her a datsun 240z(1971) I kind of inherited it but its been sitting for some probably 30 years. I have since started to trying to restore it. Here is my question, the engine in it is a L28 which is obviously not original could anyone tell me what I have.

NewZed Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Looks like a 1975 - 1977 280Z engine. The N42 head and block. A common engine swap, all of the L24 parts fit. Any chance the original L24 is still around, back in the weeds somewhere? It might add value. Not to send you away from Hybridz but classiczcars.com is a better fit for that car and what you're doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
