Guest Khromalusional Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Hey. I have a stock 240z that i want to "hop up" a little bit. What engine work can i do? I also have a motor from a 83zx to work with. What kind of swaps and options do i have with this. I will have a 5 speed tranny and a r200 in the 240z soon also. Want to keep the carbs if i can.

Don't know if you have access to a machineshop or not, so I assume you don't. If you like carbs, the best thing you can do now is to give the SUs a tune up....add a K&N filter...basic bolt on stuff. BTW The stock connecting rods on the 240Z were used to build 3.1L stroker, don't throw those away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 305240 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I just rode in my friends stone stock 72 240 and it flys! I was very impressed. They rev like bandits. His only mod to the engine was a hotter dizzy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
