1071-1973 240z, 350 engine swap questions


Recommended Posts

Alrighty, I'm planning on getting a 240z and V8-ing it. No surprise there :). I'm not positive on the exact motor, but I'm thinking just a clean, simple brand new chevy 350, and have a few questions.

 

You may answer as many or as few questions, or none at all if you wish :P. I also have plenty of time before I even get my car, so no rush - if you want to contact me it can be arranged, especially if you can be a help :).

 

1. Any other motors that would be better overall? I just like the idea of a new one.

 

2. Will the tranny fit right or will I need a new one? Or should I get a 5-speed right away to reduce hassle?(I'm not too fond of the idea of pulling out a tranny from underneath)

 

3. Will I need to cut into the fenders/firewall/anywhere else? Or will it drop right in?

 

4. Estimated mileage difference?

 

5. Suspension?

 

6. Any tips/Cautions/Advice?
