Yes iceman please message me I'll buy it for the plate on the bottom or the whole thing idc either way! It in fact is dual coil 8 plug like both of you said.
Picked up a 82 720, tweakers stole the carb and distributor off it. Brand new reman Cardone distributor doesn't come with the adjustment plate/hold down for the dizzy. Where can I even begin to search without buying a whole truck?
i would think a toyota axle swap and you can change the gear ratios......i finally got all the stuff to build my motor and will be trying to start the fab work on the motor mounts next week maybe i can get some pics and start my own thread
what ever i read the dictionary on the crapper.....if some one chooses to cut their truck up they are probably going to make it better. for example a strait 6 where a crappy 4 banger was before quit trying to stir up a argument on this man build log if you don't like l28's in 6 or 720's then don't read it or put your negativity all over it either
if you can can shut a stock hood on it and you can't see it it fits in my book!
and whats with not wanting to cut these things up it's just metal it can all be welded back on
what size plate did you use to make you motor mounts.....are those 720 mounts welded on the plate or 280z mounts???? kinda looks like that if you slide the motor back 280z mounts will bolt up. We are gonna see if there is more than one way to skin this cat lol
cabs off gonna fix up some rust holes and do some modifications.gonna clean and paint the frame....i got pics but my cam won't work with my comp so i will figure that out and post a few
YES i knew there was someone out there with the same idea....dude all i have heard from about this swap is people telling me it would never fit yadayadayada thank you for posting that....i still think i am gonna recess the firewall a little just cause i know the l28 is heavy and the closer to the middle i can get it is gonna help front to rear weight distribution
yup i was thinking along those lines but i am gonna do a bed mounted rad to clear up more room plus it's cool!!! I pulled the bed off a couple of days ago and it is too far gone already i was wondering if a d21 hardbody bed would work on there i ain't sure i'm gonna have to look. What about a custom shifter...a torch and some 1/2 inch rod will fix that . The heater is already gone along with the dash and the wiring harness it's almost time to start cuttin if it wasn't so dang cold
right now the pics would only help the haters at the moment i am gonna start sinkin the firewall back and post those pics but i need to measure first i am thinkin about 3-4 inches will do it
