    Hey all...i was jut wondering if its possible to get 250 or more hp from a 2400. i want it to be a daily driver and not cost too much. i was considering a 5.0 ltr efi swap but i still think having a strong 6 would be just as good. i am currently working on my 73 240z and trying to get some ideas before i start really finishing it up. if anyone out there has achieved this id really like to know and what kind of eng work did you have to do? thanks for any advice. kris the engine is stock and original except for the downdraft webers.
  5. thanks for the info-i removed the baseplate assembly and checked it out-all i had on there was (from bottom up) a 3 prong cage which houses 3 ball bearings,a snap ring that held it on, and then a plastic? shim,a metal shim with 3 high points on it, another plastic shim and then the points assembly-thats all that was there. am i missing some part or ?? thanks for your help-also, the microfish? where can i get that? thanks,kris

  8. hello all, im new to this forum and z cars. im working on a 73 240z with the downdraft webers on it and the car runs rich..very rich. i need to rebuild the carbs and wondering which jets are the best for getting the most out if it. im thinking about maybe adding a little extra horsepower later on so a little rich right now would be ok! thanks! kris;)
