The 240? I put more money into restoration stuff than mods over the years, it seems. Here is a partial mod list:
  • All bushings are Suspension Techniques urethane
  • Front and rear MSA sway bars
  • Front and rear MSA strut braces
  • Aluminum radiator and electric fans
  • Tokico Illumina springs and dampers
  • Momo Monte Carlo steering wheel
  • E-31 head with oversized (P-90) valves
  • Mildly built cam
  • Fidanza flywheel
  • Centerforce II clutch
  • 6-2-1 header and Dynaflow exhaust
  • Short steering knuckles with bump steer spacers

I have a Borg Warner T-5 that is going in this summer as soon as I find a reasonable condition R-200 diff with the right gears (3.83 or 3.90). I am also going to replace the front and rear control arms with custom built ones from Techno Toy tuning. Last, I am strongly considering stroking one of the spare F54 blocks (from a 280zx) in August because I always wanted 230 + hp in this Z.

Thanks for asking. I am sure I am leaving out stuff, but this is a representative list.

Kewl Z onze. I traded my extrememly modded 76 280z this year. I had replaced bushings with poly bushings, lowered 1 1/2", had custom Bonspeed rims with Kuhmo tires. Roll bar, custom gauges, battery in trunk. I swapped in a 406ci SBC with trick flow heads, edelbrock fuel injection and nitrous, turbo 350 trans. I put in a safety fuel cell, race kirkey race seats and 5 point 3" harnesses. The body was custom with molded body kit including rear wheel wells, a custom cowl induction hood and roof scoop. Oh h/p 400 on engine only, 500 with NOS.
