webbered six

Do all N42 heads have the notch for injection. If not, is this easy to do. Without taking of the manifold is there some way of identifying this?

Thought I could upload together, didn't work

Is anyone interested in this camshaft? apparentley 68 degree and a performance one. In very good condition.

Dazzed, I'll find out for sure soon as I've ordered a Billet 72 degree.

http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/cam/index.htm This is where I got the cam info. I purchased the car and motor from the people who imported it from Nismo. It came with weber setup, East Bear intake manifold and extractors to suit my 78 Skyline.

I have a "c" stamped Nismo cam, 434/256 which is supposed to be a high performance cam. Listening to it you wouldn't think so. Is there a cam more suited to street/race. I don't believe it revs high enough. Runing L28 3 x 45 webers , flat tops, N42/N42

Forgot to ask, can someone suggest a meatier street cam, and will changing cam give more punch. I'm running 3 x 45 webers, L28, flat tops, and 3.0ltr bore

After some clarification. I have a "C" stamped camshaft, which is supposedly a Nismo cam which makes sense as the motor came from Nismo as a crate motor. Apparently the lift is 434/256 duration but it's mentioned as being a high performance cam. Listening to it you wouldn't think hp. People speak of 274 duration cams, is this going to be more of a performance cam than I have presently.Ricky

Hi, the person who imported it used it as a track car ( weekends only) running it on av gas mostly. When I bought the car I was living in Kalgoorlie and only drove it twice a week during car club days, as I worked 8 on 4 off. After owning it for 2 years I gave it to Daryll Penley ( a well respected rally and datsun enthusiast) from Automotive Tuning Centre to freshen. It did'nt need much. I had it for a few more years, then sold it to buy my wifes cousins XW GS falcon. I sold the datsun to a friend who like myself left Kalgoorlie, he pulled the motor and ditched the C210. The motor sat for about 2.5 years until I bought it back as I'd found a $ 300 2 door C210 coupe which the motor is in currently. It's on you tube heading is C210 L28. It's only brief but was taken recently. The wind was blowing so it stifles the sound a bit. Maybe I should do another one. Since the freshen it's done about 20,000 ks, some hard, some not. I have'nt had it on a dyno, they charge a lot but i might look into it.

Hi, Im selling my L28 which was imported from Nismo about 10 years ago. Some details: It's N42 on N42 Has East bear ( Japanese Performance) triple weber inlet manifold match ported to Triple 45 webers DCOE made in Italy (matching set) It came bored to 3.0L Has East Bear tuned length extractors Absolutely no leaks on carbs or motor. It was freshened about 20,00 ks ago but was idle for about 2.5 years. The work was carried out by Daryll Penley at Automotive tuning Centre in Welshpool Perth. Paper work is available. It's all in in very good condition and is still in my datsun C210. Anyone in W.A is welcome to inspect. It's on "you tube" under "C210 L28". There's a brief video taken not so long ago. If your interstate and interested , get some from over here to check it out. Looking for about $3500.

Carburettors and manifold are in very good condition. I have purchased new motor and triple webers. Has extra set of float bowls. $300 Will arrange postage

I'm trying to determine if my L24s 78 Datto skyline pump is closely related to the 240z mechanical pump. The L24s pump runs at between 22 and 29 kpa and can pump 80ltrs per hour. Do these stats look similar to the Z one. Could someone look it up in a manwell for me please. Thanks Rick

thanks modular9 for your feed back. I think what you've done is what I'm going to have to do. Did you change the size of the line coming out of the tank or only from the pump onwards which i presume is located very close to the tank. What size are stock fuel lines on the 260z so i can compare them to my ones.Thanks Ricky and I'd still like to hear from others with similar set up.

Hi all, I've just completed transplanting my L24 78 dat skyline with a 260z,mild cam and 2'' Jag S.U'sthat have 2 float bowls per carb. My L24 mech pump fits the 260 fine but will this supply enough fuel. I've been told to run only 1 bowl per carb and i've also been told i'll need a holley blue. I'm aware that the 260z ran an electric fuel pump but was it similar to the holly blue? and do I use the return fuel line still. Did the 260 use a fuel regulator or was the pump designed for the S.U's. Would like to hear from anyone running similar set up and any help at all will be appreciated.

Hi guys, I've found a mildly worked 260z motor which I'm looking at tomorrow here in Perth. If All looks good I'll purchase it. Thanks for keeping me in mind.

what was the shipping costs?, I've been looking at the 3x webbers. Good prices

Does the motor run o.k and is it a man or auto. Will he be selling the rest of the car as a whole

Hi if there's any West Aussies on this site selling the above I'd like to hear from you, otherwise I'm still interested in any other offers, unfortunately I'm looking at about $1000 from Melbourne to ship these goods but if I find the right items at the right price I'm prepared to PAY. Thanks Ricky

Hi people, tho I don't actually drive a Z car I am a worshipper of the driveline in these cars and I actually drive a 2 door 78 skyline. I have in the past owned a 4 door ,also 78 but It had all 280z driveline. I've joined this site hoping to aquire a L28 and 5 speed, carbbed or injected for my coupe. Hope you can help. My biggest problem is I'm in W.A which is a hard place to source parts. I'm prepared to ship if I find the parts at the right price. If anybody knows of any C210 78 skyline parts I'd appreciate the info. Thanks Ricky
