    i had a 280 motor put in my 240z. i had a mechanic rebuild it. he wanted to pre-oil before i started it. i want to start it today. is it posssible to pre-oil this engine? would it be worth waiting for?

    i also want to put on a lightweight flywheel and a bigger throttle body on my car. those parts in the z store dont fit the turbo z. is that only those parts? do you guys know why they wont fit?

    i have a 71 240 z that i am getting a 83 turbozx motor put in. i am waiting for an estimate on rebuilding the motor right now. do you think that it would be wise to to get a 3.1 stroker rebuild done on the motor. has anyone heard of a 3.1 turbo motor? would it handle the stress?
