If , for whatever reason, Gav doesn’t take these then I’d be keen. or if there’s any others out there. cheers martin

Great. Thanks for the info.

Hey all Been offered these carbs to go on my (to be rebuilt as std) L28. I know they’re not 240Z carbs so what are they and are they suitable for a road (not track) car? cheers

Hey all Looking for a set (4) of these plastic cups. Let me know if you have any you’d sell. Cheers Martin

Hi Have you anymore of these? Cheers Martin

Hey guys Have searched but no real answers… Will a FS5W71B gearbox out of an 84 Bluebird TRX (4cyl) suit an L28 in a 260Z coupe? I know the ratios are slightly different but will it bolt up and marry you the Z prop and L28 clutch? any real downsides? cheers

Thanks for that. Both my L28s are 1979 according to this. Makes or sing less of a guess.

Mainly gaskets for a rebuild. On a previous car (with a L28) I was sent the wrong head gasket so I know that there are some differences over the lifespan of the engine. hoping to order the gaskets before stripping the engine down. But I might have to wait until I have it apart so I can visually match it.

No, not a Tinder for engine blocks but a simple question about the age of a L28. Is there any reference against the engine number to show the year of build? Looking to order rebuild parts and it’d help if I knew when my 457xxx - numbered engine was made. Cheers Martin

Yup saw those. Just thought I’d see what else is out there as I don’t need them straightaway. cheers

Hi peeps looking for a decent subframe for my 1975 260Z coupe. I have one but was modified for a Rover V8. Yeah I don’t know why either. I’m on the Goldie cheers Martin

Hey peeps Looking for carbs or FI for a stock L28 (running extractors). Round top SUs Triples Fuel injection systems (with management) What’s out there for sale? Cheers Martin

Thanks Mike lovely exhaust but overkill for my needs. thanks for the reply Martin

Hi Mike can you send me a pic of these? cheers Martin

Hey all looking to buy a set of exhaust extractors/headers/manifold new or used on the Goldie but will cover postage if not local what’s out there?

For us manual lovers couldn’t agree more. But there might be someone out there who likes an auto looking for a spare. Once it’s in the bin it’s never coming back out.
