Stubby Posted June 5, 2006 Share #1 Posted June 5, 2006 Have owned a 76 280z for a couple of years and spent a couple of years prior to owning it helping my father inlaw modify it. It would be considered by most to be a POS but it has been a fun toy. We modified the log for a Dirrect mount Holley 350, got it jetted in and running great then adapted it for a Rochestor 2V. Again we got it jetted in and running great. Then we found a pair of SU carbs in the local junkyard and repeated the process.We also took a five speed trany out of a truck and cross bread it with the Zcar's four speed and now we have a five speed. That was a learning experience.The body is a little rough but it is a tough little car and fun to drive. Right now my son is driving it as his first car while we rebuild his 68 Mustang.

=Enigma= Posted June 8, 2006 Share #3 Posted June 8, 2006 Welcome to the board. I love my Z very much, but if that's a 68' fastback, I'm not sure which I'd rather have. That car always got my attention. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/20301-howdy-from-texas/#findComment-170430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
