titanium Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 So I have a car now and I've already bought some Vortec heads and roller rockers. I need to find a built short block and I also need to know where I can buy mounts or if its just better to have them made for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillZ260 Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Welcome, try the search function in the Chevy V8 section. Answers to ALL your questions and more reside there. Start with mounts or JTR in your search.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tony78_280z Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I purchased the motorsports conversion kit from Zcarparts.com. Do not make that mistake. If I could do it again I'd go JTR. The only thing that worked as advertised from motorsports was the headers. Hell they even gave me a driveshaft too long. (I said 36&1/2" from the back end of my tranny to the mounting plate on the pumpkin. But NO!!) And don't get me started on the Tranny mounts! When I'm done with this project I'm gonna design a webpage about how I had to modify every part of thier "bolt on" kit. And give free advertisement to any other kit. So, how does a guy go and shorten a driveshaft? Go here http://www.customconversion.com/Pages/Datsun_Z_V-8.html buy the manual. Learn it then buy the kit.
