can the drivetrain handle 450HP?
Im building a 350 and I dont know what I'm putting it in yet but I really like the look of the 280zx and hear its not too much of a headache to put in.. but Im wondering if it can handle the 450 HP I anticipate? please let me know thanks.. Eric

Most of the 350 swaps that I've seen also swap the tranny as well. I think they use a Chevy 6 speed maunal---don't ask me the part#....
A good place to ask is www.hybridz.org

The stock tranny is only rated at about 250 ft/lbs although I know several people are running more and haven't had any problems... yet.
