Guest badmojo175 Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 my friend and i just desided we want to do a carbed 400 sb swap into his 1983 z. I was wondering if the stock gauges could be used and what the differences are between swaping an 83 insted of an 80. thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danc Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 badmojo175: I have an 83 with a SBC, and the digital gauges work fine except the tach isn't accurate. Suggest you take a look at the Jags that run web site, and buy their book. There are differences between a Z and ZX conversion and the JTR manual covers the Z. There are enough similarities though to make the cost of the manual well worth the price. There are differences between the 83 and 80 steering that someone else can address better than I. My driver's side header had to be significantly modified, but it workds fine.. Good Luck.. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
