Converting an 83 ZX motor to 78 280z motor


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone out there. I need some help. Two months back, after restoring my 78 i took it for the second road test, gas leaked out of the fuel filter and some how ignited, took the FD THIRTY minutes to get to my neighborhood where the car was still on fire. I could get the hood up before it got to hot and all i had was someones water hose(they had no idea i was using) to try and keep the flames down. So the entire engine bay burned, wires, hoses, plugs, battery, etc. I had an 83 ZX that i had flipped, literally not metaphorically, with the engine still running strong. So instead of just fixing the Z motor im gonna put this one back in. I have the new harness for a 78, but i dont know all the parts and little things i will need to change it out to make it a perfect fit. If anyone out there

knows anything or has done this please help. I have some parts i got from a parts guy on craigslist, not looking for new parts or performance. I want it mostly stock first. Thanks!
