1979 280zx replacements.

So I have my 1979 280zx and Im going to replace my radiator and was thinking of replacing some other parts like the air intake and some hoses and spark plugs but those arent as big. Im going to post some pictures of the engine and the air intake later but I have one problem i dont know where a good place to get parts for 1979 280zx thats not going to degrade its performance or rip me off.

I'd say aluminum personally. Up to you though.

Nice ZXR by the way.
