zed74 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Hi Have a standard reconditioned 240z motor that has been lying around for over 5 years - would like it gone! Is a matching numbers engine for my 1972 240zg replica race car - BUT as it will never see life in that car there is no point keeping it! It has genuine nissan oil filter & I filled it with penrite HPR30 back in 2006/07 & turned over occasionally. Has P30 block & E88 head combo. $850 + freight seems a fair price to go to a good home Original carbs available at extra cost - but they are not reconditioned UPDATE: PM any offers as it will be going up on FleaBay by the end of the week if no interest - deserves a good home Quote
zed74 Posted August 21, 2012 Author Posted August 21, 2012 Any interest?? Will give it a proper clean up & detailed photos for Ebay - so watch out for it later this week Hi Have a standard reconditioned 240z motor that has been lying around for over 5 years - would like it gone!

Veloce Posted August 22, 2012 Posted August 22, 2012 If i had a matching numbers L24 i would probably hang onto it! They aren't worth much at the moment but it will be a good selling point if you ever want to sell the car,even if it is a race car now. Some anorak in 20 years time might want to do a full resto or enter it in classic races which specify original capacity engine... only 360-odd 240z's came to Aus in '72, you could probably count on fingers and toes how many are left with matching L24's Quote
zed74 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Posted August 22, 2012 Hi Good points raised & certainly considered holding... Guess the issue of having full welded roll cage & cut out panels for ZG flares, along with a "slight" addiction for more power has me questioning logic of keeping a stock standard L24. Thanks for the advice If i had a matching numbers L24 i would probably hang onto it!
