I know it is an old ad post. About a month old. But read what this guys claims, and leave your feedback here. I don't know if I believe it.

I don't get it... which of his "claims" are you talking about? If you mean the 170hp, that's what they were rated at (FLYWHEEL) from the factory. Realistic numbers (WHP) are always far below factory flywheel ratings...

Yeah mainly saying you could put a 240 or 260 ECU, and gain more horsepower factory-wise, with the L28. That is really all I was wondering.

He's not saying to use a 240z or 260z ecu (they don't exist anyway as they are carb'd). He's saying you can drop the 280z motor into a 240z or 260z.

^ Ahh okay, I understand. I guess I misread what he was saying. My mistake.
