flatcat19 Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Cool classifieds ad, Bro. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mr.Dean_Yates Posted October 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 It wouldn't let me post it in classifieds, Bro. Otherwise I'd do it there Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 That is one of the downfalls of this new system.. and the reason why we get so many posts like this. I assume there is some sort of notification as to WHY it won't let you post? If not, well that's a fail. If so.. then cool. Damn spammers.... it why we can't have nice things... Lou. If only we could restrict all new posts until an intro was posted. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 It wouldn't let me post it in classifieds, Bro. Otherwise I'd do it there Post an intro, add some pictures, get mod approved to use the classifieds, then post in the classifieds. That will yield your greatest chance of success.

datzenmike Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Wanting to build a blow through turbo 240 and need some turbo parts like manifold and valve cover. Found some on eBay but just curious if anyone has something I could use here. The valve cover isn't essential, it only says TURBO on it. No one can see it anyway. What you need to look for is a 280zx turbo engine from a car made between Dec. '80 and the end of the '83 model year. This will give you your turbo exhaust manifold. Might as well get the matching down pipe too. Blow through SU Hitachi's???? I have no idea how well they will stand up to boost. Why not just slip a complete 280zx turbo engine with EFI into you Z? If you are approved to post here you can use the classifieds. Are you using IE? A hand held device? Quote Link to comment

I'm going to run a 4bbl Holley which is in a different thread. This thread is pretty much done. Don't really need it anymore haha As far as the valve cover goes...I just like the squared look of the turbo valve covers. I might just take it to my machinist and have him shave it down to just be blank. Saw a guy in eBay has square ones like the turbo but they have DATSUN on em. That would be cool to have Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 1, 2015 Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 Square must be after market. The TURBO ones I've seen look just like the non turbo but for the lettering. Quote Link to comment
