i have stock manual tunell and fit a 280zx box in with mounts removed so im guessing yes. ca20 would be ok if cheap, certanly whip many a mild A. L20b + box could net you cheap realiable power, all depends how far and $ you want to go i guess.

I would never shop at citys there at least twice the price of anywere else. Having said that 1g is alright if its rebore new pistons etc not just a re ringer. Try find someone wrecking a vannete or buy one and swap your a12 with it lol

Well i guess i learnt allot about detonation after blowing 6 headgaskets within 6 months from detonation problems, im glad i fixed that problem (lower comp, modded chambers etc). Ive also discovered that stockas can take heaps of pinging compared to similar engine making more power. We had a mitsy colt. Pinged like crazy especially the more it was loaded up and the hotter it was. It never broke down in the 3 months it was around. My turbo 1200 when it had the problems, faint pinging only above 5k rpm only heard it ping on approx 10 diff accasions and backed off straight away, a total of no more than 10-15 seconds and a head gasket would fall out the side of the block! Frustrating. My word of advice would be that if even the faintest of pinging is heard, pull over and back out some timing. Also have a safety margin there, and a large safety margin at the expense of power if you intend to flog it through hills let it get real hot, let tyres boil with little airflow etc. Ive also found octane boosters have done nil for me, interestingly enough once i was forced to fill with 95 instead of 98 and that required a lot of timing retard...

I have found too much timing equals.... ping,ping,ping. The extra work you do to motor/ supports eg, compression, chamber mods/design, intercooling, water inj, fuel octane etc allows you to run extra timing therfore usually more power without pinging or in some engines that tend not to detonate easilly, were ever timings at ie the sweet spot and either way just drops power but no pinging, giving greater safety margin. I just confused myself hope that makes some sense?

No interest? Will consider any reasonable offers above 5k...

fwd offset rims, im running nissan et turbo 14s on mine fit no worries without spacers and 185s

Thanks Sean, probably have better luck with the trading post!

lots more photos in my album

or set up your starting system so you can crank it with no ignition and once its spinning fast fick ignition on and away it goes
