Guest Anonymous Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 I am new to the whole Zcar scene, I have an almost finished 240z that just needs a motor and it will become my track toy (mainly 1/8th i think for now) And I was wondering what you guys are running in the 1/8th and 1/4 mile... ET/Mph/60'/and engine and drivetrain specs. thanks Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Bayley Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 Thanks for the plug Russ. Aaron, feel free to send me an email of your, or anyone you know, 1/4 mile times (1/8 as well). Always looking to add new people. -Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 Well, I will definitely send you my track times and info once I have them but I am basically trying to figure out what engine specs are producing what times in these itty bitty cars. My 240z has been tubbed and is running 4 link and coilovers with a ford 9" rear...5.13 (or is it 5.12) gears full spool. I have a powerglide with a 3500 stall...I'm just wondering how fast it can get with a semi-built 350. What have you guys seen/done? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 Hi Aaron what do you want????? is it a street driven car or a trailer race car???? it looks like 400rwhp will get you low 11s maybe 10s in your case with the big tires you can run. do you have pics of your car you can email or post somewhere? id like to see detailed pics of the rear suspension. thanks stony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted February 25, 2002 Share Posted February 25, 2002 It will be trailered only. I'm too big to get in and out of this thing on a daily basis . No pics right now but it once I get started on installing the motor I will snap some pics...I guess a digi cam would help too . I'm thinking 400 hp at the wheels would be sufficient too, but I guess what I'm looking for are specs on motors that can net me that magic #. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jap tin Posted February 26, 2002 Share Posted February 26, 2002 Hi Aaron. My old backhalfed 240Z with a 406 and a turbo 400 ran 9.50's in the quarter. With a good 350 and a glide you should go in the 10's easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Bringing this back from the dead. The link is still good but is it still being maintained? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
