Cylinder Head For 280zx

N388S · 01-23-2006, 08:50 PM

I have a 1979 280zx non-turbo that I am in the process of rebuilding. I have found a good engine rebuild kit that I am going to purchase but I also need a cylinder head because the original head is warped due to overheating. Where should I look to purchase a cylinder head? Any suggestions or comments would be appreaciated.

Thanks

Your best bet would be to take one off another zx maybe from a junkayrd or something. Might want to check ebay also since some people sell entire engines by the part

Yes you can have it repaired. Then you will have to use cam-towers shims to correct the height of the cam towers.
