Not as nice as mine, but then I had my L24 bored and stroked and replaced my transmission and diff: 11.7 lbs/hp.

Nice car man, always loved the look of these cars, would love to throw a LS3 or LS7 in a 240 a few years down the road. How much hp are you squeezing out the L24 set up?

Thanks! She's been in the shop for so long now (over a year). I got her out a few months back and did some road trips to Tennessee and Savannah, GA. Then I took her racing at Summit Point and spun all the bearings. That will teach me to check the oil level. So, my race shop in Kali is rebuilding her for free (Dave didn't realize I would be putting her on the track, so he is installing a baffled oil sump). So, in a few weeks I'll have her back, Insha'Allah.

An LS3 or LS7 will fit, although it seems most folks are interesting in throwing a RB26DETT into her these days. I wanted to keep the original numbers matching engine, so they bored and stroked it to a 2.85L and the horsepower went from 151 to 270...Guys are getting 500+ with the RB26DETT.

Check out this pull from a LS1 (5.3) powered 280. Now picture a LS7 (7.0) with a cam, headers, and multiport injectors. 600 hp in one of those cars may be slight overkill, but I'm willing to be the lab rat for that experiment.

I got lucky. I talked my mom into a 280Z and then a 300ZX t-top as her empty nest cars. Only the 280Z, 1979 qualifies for this thread.
 
Hah, I only accept Series 1 240zs here...all that fuel injection and computer controlled stuff ain't going to cut it.
