L24 Carbs on L28 Engine or stay std 280ZX EFI its going in 240Z

[OZZ240]

Hi Guys,

I have a L28 plus gbox sitting in my garage and I want to stick it in my 240Z,

Don't know whether to use the standard 280ZX EFI or put the Carbs off the L24 (round top) on the L28 and if I do use the carb's off the L24 what needles will I need and where can I get them from?.

Thanks

Ian

Thats exactly what I did, check my project. Needles stay the same I'd imagine.

 

You'll spend a lot longer trying to set up the wiring and ecu then carbs thats for sure.

The needles will have to change, as the L24 one's can't supply enough fuel throughout the rev range.

I found this out the hard way...

Thanks Guys...will give Wilson Carburettor Services a ring

At what point will the round top SU's be a bottle neck for an engine?  Ie. any idea what kind of camshaft, displacement increases and porting mods can they support?

I know for a fact if you have a stroker they act as a rev limiter; nothing after 5500 rpm. Usually just a very mild cam and no other serious mods would be the limit. Good for putting around the city and/or Group Sc racing.
