This is my "project old school". It's a 1986 nissan 300zx that is getting a 345 bhp chevy 350!. These pics are of the steps i went through taking out the old engine and transmission. And putting in the new chevy 350 and turbo 350 automatic transmission
this is the engine I took out, a hopped up v-6
this is the stripped out interior, which is gonna stay striped out. The more wieght you have the slower you go ;-)
this is me putting in the new engine, it's a chevy 350 with 345 hp!
a view of the back
here it's nestled in nicely without motor mounts
another picture fromthe side of the drop in.
heres the carter afb 650 cfm carb that should do the job
tight clearance on the right
tight clearance on the left
you can see how close the front of the 350 is to the front part of the hood cross member, oh boy that is tight. bye bye regular fan! ;-)
heres the transmission mount (custom baby!)
heres the right custom motor mount
heres the left custom motor mount. though they arent going to be finished until I get my drive line back from the machine shop. I dont know exactly where to put the engine front to back wise until i can plug in the drive line.
just a pic of the 350 in the nissan engine bay. she looks purdy!
this is the B&M shifter i got for it from a previous project.
A shot of the front of the car with the engine sitting in it. oh boy! is she pretty or what! ;-)
