Finally got a 240Z, time to do some "era correct"

hello all,

 

Well, it finally happened. someone bought my '89 240 coupe and I will be getting a '72 240Z! I already have the performance bug, so heres what I wanna do... let me know what you think.

 

keep the stock block for now, but bolt ones are as follows...

1) I have a set of 40mm phh(?) mikunis on a short runner manifold and the car already has a header on it.

2) I also have an electromotive optical trigger ignition, not sure what model, but its a big gold box with fins all around. those are getting bolted on.

3)I am leaning towards an L26 stock cam as it was 256 degrees as opposed to 248 for the L24's,anyone have one for sale? its stamped with a "C" on the end from the factory.

4) I am looking into a Maxima N47 head, I think it would be great with the tripples and a header, especially since I would not have to do anything special to get it to bolt on.

 

anyone care to take an educated guess as to how much a properly running and tuned setup like this would make?? I am hoping for about 150 at the rear. but, more is always better!

 

thanks!

McAdam

 

p.s. I am gonna rip off the U-pull it to get my head, they have a LD28 in the yard, so I'm gonna pull the head off of that, put a gas N47 maxima head on the block and throw the manifolds back on the engine, kill 2 birds with one stone, lol! get a maxima N47 and an LD28 crank for about $160.

I have a rebuilt maxima head, if you're interested. It has a mild cam from Delta Camshafts (260 duration). I ran it for about 500 miles and it ran very strong. However, I got the turbo bug, so I am going to sell it. I have receipts to prove all the work. Asking $300 + shipping. Let me know if you're interested. Buying it this way will save you a ton of time and money in the long run.
