Guest djdontspin Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Howdy I want to put a v8 in my zx but the JTG book apears to cover only the datsun models. Is there anything else I can do or anywhere I can go to find info on a v8 300zx? erk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BigWhyteDude Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 I believe someone here has done this already. Use the search here and you should come up with something. I dont know much about it but if you search the archives you should come up with what you want.

Chaparral2f Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 i would probably have doen a big block but I had spent too much on my small block to start over. The only place where there is any clearance problem is with the headers and the steering rack. Here,are pics of my swap, and drawings of the motor mounts.

Alf Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 What year car do you have chaparral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaparral2f Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 It was an '84 NA, but latley it's what is commonly known as a garage queen. Its a 355 chevy with a mild summit cam, ported L98 Vette heads, Keith Black flattop pistons. Its carbed (750 carter) with a Vertex mag. In the future is Hillborn Injection, Jag front suspension, T-bird supercoupe rear. I'm ripping the engine back out today and have been thinking about going to a roller cam. What is your instillation like? Post some pics, I am really interested in what other people are doing to their Z31s. For a long time I felt like I was the only one with an early 300ZX on the board.

Alf Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Heres my car, it is by no means a show peice but it is fun. It has a late 80s(not sure exactly) 305 and a saginaw 3 speed. The motor is stock besides a holley 600 cfm spreadbore, and i had to put points on it because the hei didnt fit, hopefully an electronic conversion is coming soon. This thing is pretty darn fast for what it is it will screach tires in all 3 gears. Anyway heres some pics of the install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
