JMS has done an ITS spec L28 for me and I was happy with their work: http://jmsracing.com/

House of Cobra built a 300+ horsepower NA L30 for a friend and he was happy with the work:

Wow! I am in almost the same boat -- 1972 240Z with 148,000 miles, needs work. I can do it, but with 2 little kids, no chance I have the time. I also have a 1966 XKE that takes some of my attention

I want someone to do the work, preferably with a bit more power, but not a monster motor. I want something like the Rebello 2.7L....I am in NJ, so the cost to ship my motor to CA is going to be expensive, as would the rebuild.

Anyone know a NJ equivalent?

Here are a couple of places to start:

Classic Datsun Motorsports

(760) 940-6365

345 Olive Ave

Vista, CA 92083

Pierre Z Car Ctr

(310) 644-3645

12579 Crenshaw Blvd

Hawthorne, CA 90250

Both of these shops were involved in the Z Restoration Progam Nissan sponsored back in 1997. I am sure they can do the job, or at lease steer you in the right direction.
