Re: Chevy Powered 300ZX

Just trying to add some factual information to a thread that had little to none.

so why do you think we are gonna care for another page???

if you have something informative to say about a V8 in a 300zx...open a post and we will converse there. half the people that were talking on this thread dont even come here anymore. so basically your arguing with yourself...

Better lock it before I post more factual information.

I don't see the point in making another thread when there's already one that pertains to the information posted? Most forums would appluad that.

Re: Chevy Powered 300ZX

The point is that what you posted isn't really usefull in a thread thats over a year old. Obviously no one cares about the topic or there would be more threads about it. And like K3s said the people discussing the topic before probably don't even come here any more so it doesn't make any sense to add information that no one wants to see.

after a few minutes of scrolling up and down between each of your guys' avatars...i have came to the conclusion that you both, do indeed, share the same avatar.

i think you should both remove them...its a pretty lame avatar to begin with. just kidding fellas...

Re: Chevy Powered 300ZX

as soon as my motor goes i will be stuffing an LT1 with a custom geared T56 in my 87. Eventually I will let you know how it go's.
you wil need custom motor and tranny mounts and you will need a custom driveshft. I have read that the halfshafts can only handle about 600 bhp before they break with slicks.

That's where you are wrong. The idea of modifying cars (4N or domestic) with engine swaps will never die. My first car was a '37 Chevy that originally came with an inline 6. The thrill of starting that car for the first time with a 350 V8 was immeasurable. Yes there was a lot of fabricating but that is the beauty of modifying your car. When it's complete you have the satisfaction of knowing that what resides under the hood is a product of your OWN engineering. Not just bolting on a turbo. ANYONE can do that. Oh, by the way, when it comes to racing Hondas in the IRL even they use V8s. Happy motoring!

Re: Chevy Powered 300ZX

but see the Z was ment to have a 6 cylinder, it always has had a 6 and it will always will, its not suposed to have a v8 and sound like a muscle car and its not suposed to have a 4 banger and have a fartcan exhaust...the whole point of havin a Z is it sounds and moves like nothing else on the road

Re: Chevy Powered 300ZX

Please, don't get me wrong, I have owned Z cars, and they are a pleasure to go canyon carving with. Isn't it a wonderful country we live in that we can ALL express what we desire or build what we want???
