Guest tony78_280z Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 I have never seen anyone drop a motor on the side of the street. Get any funny stares? Any dumb comments? Onlooker: "Motor Problems?" HybridZer: "Nah this one got out and ran off. We finaly caught it about 40 miles from here and are now returning it to it's pen." Onlooker: "What-chu doin?" HybridZer: "Stealing this motor. Keep an eye out for cops." Onlooker: "What-chu doin?" HybridZer: "Changing the oil. The oil pan plug is stuck so we gotta turn the motor upside down and drain it out the fill cap." Onlooker: "Is that a chevy motor you are putting in that Nissan?" HybridZer: *does double take* "Damn!, that parts guy sold me the wrong motor!" Onlooker: "Are you sure you are doing that right?" HyridZer: *just stares* Onlooker: "My cousin's-nephew's-exroomate had a 350 in a 240z. Man it was fast!" HybridZer: *rolls eyes, and prepares to hear another story* And now for something completely different. On your webapge, In your motor specs, you state... Port and Polished heads Bowels Blented Motor bored .030 over, file cut rings What are Bowels Blented? That sounds like a painful night on the toilet!! That is a nice looking motor going into a nice looking Z (except those rims! sorry, I don't like 'em) Keep up the good work and keep coming with the updates!

Thats some funny stuff. Thanks for the laugh. It's kinda funny...about a year and a half ago I told my dad that i wanded to get a 240Z and drop a Chevy 350 into her. He blinked twice, looked at me and said "I did that back in '78. I have pictures too, see take a look." WHAT!? Z cars must run in the blood or something. He got all excitied and was telling me the best things to do etc, etc. I thought that was a trip. Anyways, the rims are going when i do my 5 lug conversion, so dont worry. Im not too fond of them either. I think im going to paint the gold part black for the time being. I got a guy that will hook me up with body work, prep and painting for about $1000. Midnight blue with a blue pearl and black trim under a protective layer of clearcoat. ooooo BABY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 73LT1Z Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 LOL @ the onlooker comments. Must be nice living in a neighborhood w/o any "Nazis" that get upset when you wrench on your car on your property. One thing I don't miss since my guys are now in their own 2400 SF neighborhood . I'd rethink the cooling fan- it looks like a Perma-Cool, and they grossly over rate their airflow (I found this out the hard way when I adapted two of their 12" fans on my TA after I added the ATI Procharger). The lack of a decent shroud will hurt as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
