Rebirth of EVIL Z - LS1/T56


EVILC

Recommended Posts

Been slacking for a year but finally moved my 260z that I bought to replace my 240z into my buddies garage, I plan to have her up and running in a few weeks! More details are coming but pics will do for now:

Ugh... I'm quite envious of the parts-porn that is your project. Is it an illusion or is the LS1 really that short (shorter than an L series)? Forgive my ignorance, I've never had a V8 although I absolutely admire them. What's the story on the engine? Looks promising!

most v8's are a bit shorter than l6's, they're 2 cylinders shorter, so in theory they should amost always be shorter. not sure on the larger displacement v8's, but a 350 is significantly shorter. that's why the best track z's are usually v6 equipped rather than inline 6, they have fantastic weight distribution.

So car was sent out to have some welding done, replacing a floor - new rails tied into my frame kit - roll bar mod for seat belts - seats mounted lower in the car - pdk custom down bars to tie into swap bars and a few other things:

Awesome and inspiring post. I may have a few questions about your fuel setup. I want to retain the stock fuel tank in my 71 240Z. I was thinking about aeromotives stealth system. I want to eliminate fumes from the cabin if possible. I will be going 2JZ, so its a little different. I wanted LS but the 2JZ stuff worked out cheaper.
