Chevy 250 or 400 for my 78?
what year is the 400 from (i'm assuming it's not '59)? since you're in CA, you can get in mucho trouble if they find you swapped in an older motor.

"New" wheels
^i agree, i think they look uber nice w/o the center caps. but looks hawt! if you want a chrome front bumper, i'd be willing to do you a favor and trade over

those are the kind of people that are inviting a punch to the face. seriously, what kind of person would do that?

just for the record, i don't condone what any parties did during WWII, and i am removing myself from that conversation as i don't feel that this is the proper forum to discuss anything politically motivated. anyway, it DOES really suck that people think that keying a car is a good solution to anything. it really pisses me off to think that people would do it to such a classic car in such nice shape.

i do see your point of view, and without getting too political, i don't think that the japanese internment camps were along the lines of human rights. really, a war is a war, but comparing what the japanese did to the genocide of nazi germany is quite a bit extreme, as i'm sure you realize. but i digress.

it sounds MEAN. especially with a stage IV cam

what 5 speed is easy and cheap?
^dogleg refers to the fact that first gear is over and down, with reverse being above it anyway, 280ZX tranny is where it's at. to use with the stock 3.36 rear gears, get a '79 ZX tranny. there's also folks modding 240sx trannies to use with the Z bellhousing. requires a bit of work and some machining to get it to fit, though. but they're reliable, cheap, and there's plenty

handles like a wet bar of soap
i just have to say that i laugh a little everytime i see the title of this thread anyway, good suggestions from those above me.

Paint scheme Zero
i've always thought a zero-themed paint job would look nice on a Z. there's some folks over at hybridz that agree.

msa performance exhaust, 6-1 header with pics
wow, looks like they did some NICE updating. fits a lot nicer than my aluminized setup (that came in 4 pieces ) and that header flange is nice and thick, too.
