Guest redracer2 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Hi guys, I'm a new member but plan on posting here quite often. It's my first v8 z and I would like to have some diagrams of the motor mounts and tranny mounts. for a small block 350. But the only problem is my project is a z31 and information like that is impossible to find. If someone could help me out I would have a new best friend. Thanks in advance.

Guest inviserator Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Hey guys, I just wanted to post to say I as well am going to be doing a sbc z31. I have searched and searched this site and no one has posted motor mount diagrams. However Alf has pictures of his mounts installed. I plan to use these pictures and just figure it out myself unless someone can find a diagram. Alf said it was a fairly easy swap. My brother is helping me with it and he is very skilled so I plan to just figure it out as we go. I will document everything as we go and post a complete walkthrough when finished. I plan on taking my time though because I dont have alot of money and want to do it right. Any help in the form of a writeup or diagrams would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferreido Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hi, I took the standard L28 mounts, removed the rubbers modified them and connected the standard Chev mounts on top of them. See photos in Member gallary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inviserator Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 MikeJTR and Ferreldo, Thank you for the info but I think there is a misunderstanding. You posted information for the 280zx conversion mounts. What RedRacer and I are looking for is a diagram with measurements for motor mounts to place a SBC in a Z31 (300zx 84-89).

COZY Z COLE Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 This is another of Alf's threads on the motor mounts. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=104866 What we really need is for one of you guy's to take mearsurements, make diagrams, take pics and do a write up on this swap. Use a good title like Z31 V-8 swap write up and we would post it in the FAQ's Forum. LARRY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest inviserator Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Hello Everyone, Well I have started my SBC z31 swap. took the motor and trans out a couple of days ago and am currently searching the junk yards for a suitable motor. Alf, Could you please post some diagrams of the mounts and maybe a walkthrough on what wires are needed from the z harness to make the carbed SBC work? I have an 86 N/A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
