I like it! Had a student of mine that had a clean 260 that he swapped a ZZ4 crate and a 700 in...little car was quick but would pretzel a driveshaft on a sticky tire.

Yea in years past we have had problems with blowing out the stock halfshafts on Z cars when we reached 3 times the stock power level, upgrading to 300zx TT halfshafts and billet parts solves alot of that... never really had driveshaft problems though, a good steel body and spicer joints was all she wrote typically

Are you telling us you're a ricer in disguise Cam?

 

[slimtastic]

no not at all. the motors we typically dropped in were ls1's. the cars we built had import names, but were Monsters at heart.



with that said, a 240-260-280Z roadster isnt really a ricer. a honda that sounds like its ripping a horrid fart when driving down the road is a different story lol. i think you boys would be proud of this little monster im sticking together

Yeah.... that should scoot. Should be wicked fun to drive.
