New year, new direction with ZX.

[Alxxpress]

So I drove 10 hours to Ft.Walton FL area to put a new head on my 81 280zx turbo. I had some issues with the crappy E-bay headgasket I sould have never bought but after waiting a few days I recived my FelPro and got the car back togeter. I replaced the Oil pump also because I expected I had a problem with the old pump that may have helped with the cam getting eatten up on the original head. Got the car running and everything seemed fine. Started my drive back to Houston when 60miles in a rod knock became a locked motor and I was stuck again!

Lucky my buddy Issac Gomez from Underpressure Fabrications came threw with a trailer ride back to his shop. The car will sit a few months till after my wedding and I start to work and save some money. This is going to be a while and it gives me time to think about where this car is going to go. The peice of ♥♥♥♥ is actually in pretty good shape and I am not too deep in a whole with it so its not getting junked. My future father in law has a 94 G20 van with a 350. I know it has either a 700r4 or a

4L60E and that it is mine if I want it. I could not put the motor in stock, it would have at least a Performer RPM, cam and a converter. But I have to look at what type of heads it has, if they are Vortech or what and if it is a 4L or a 700.

Lucky the fab work is not going to be a problem with Issac and I know enough to not get in over my head. The main thing is a I want to get the car to houston and have some freaking fun!!! Issac says he can get me a LQ9 real cheap also wich I would love, but I guess I am going to wait and see what the funds are like. By the way I know a stock 350 is not going to shake the world, but by the time I get this party started a turbo will probably be in the works. I am going to have a 9 second street car this year. I know too much and have enough resources to not have one. The weding and getting my degree in aircraft repair are just going to take all my attention for the next few months. But rest assured I will be out thier having fun with you guys sooner or later. Till then this is my report. Sucks to be on the side lines
