PhaTTy Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 I plan on insuring it with collector insurance, which would allow me to bypass emissions in my city. "Arizona now has an emissions testing exemption for cars 25 years old or older that have collector car insurance on them." Sounds like it would work to me, as long as I can get collector car insurance on the ole 240z project. I've been pondering over different 383 options, and my real question is.. how "daily" street friendly will the car be at different horsepower levels. I plan to put the 700R4 transmission in, and a R200/R230 VLSD. Chassis will be strengthened as much as I can. I don't want to overdo the power... Since I am planning a N/A engine build, what are your thoughts on a 400hp/400tq (crank) engine vs 500hp/500tq (crank) engine build. I am planning on around 9.2 - 9.6 CR to prevent knock as we only have 91 octane here. It will be a bit more under control with the FAST EZ-EFI since it will train itself to obtain a proper AFR ratio, which can help reduce knock over a carb setup. I want a fun car that I can drive every day if I want to and take to the strip a few times a year. However, I don't think it is worth the effort if the car won't run at least a 12.5 1/4 mile. Let me know your thoughts on all this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
