I'M BA-A-A-CK!! and a couple questions

[clutchdust]

hey guys, i will be joining the ranks of a Z owner here shortly (new thread in general forum).

but i do have a couple questions. baiscally, is the L6 block in the 240 the same block as the 280? in other words, if i have an original 240 block, can that be bored and factory sized 280 pistons installed? also, what cam/valve options are there for good performance?

the plan with the new car is to just pull the motor from the beginning, have the block bored and honed, replace the cam, chain and oil pump and anything else that needs actual attention.

anything else you guys suggest might need attention?

i just want to get this running as strong as i can on a minimum budget until i can find a suitable v-6/5-speed for a swap. it will soon permanently take over track duty from the vette.

i believe that the 240z block can be bored out too 2.8lt but your better off getting a 280zx block hone it out and start from there
