I just got my engine back from 2.5 years at the machine shop. The only thing I'm waiting on is a dampener/pully, becasue the shop broke it putting it back on. They're in the process of ordering one now. But I was wondering if there is a performance pulley for an 82 turbo. I think I've heard one off a 260z would fit and was smaller, but not sure. In my search i haven't found anything. Anyone have any info. Thanx

 

Search, and ye shall find.

if they broke it putting it back on, id be worried about more than the pulley.

 

no joke.


and why was your motor at the machine shop for 2.5 years

 

Here's the story: https://www.zdriver.com/forums/280zx-performance-technical-79/engine-rebuild-27293/

And that was a year ago.... yikes!

 

So I'm SOL if I want to keep my power steering.

 

Unless you're building a crazy high strung L28ET, there's not any big benefit from a performance underdrive pulley. There's lots of other things that are much more important.

 

Did you have any luck with the S30 or L4 pulley

 

thats just absolutely ridiculous, in less than a year Iv had 3 motors in and out of my Z and currently building a 4th

and they take 2.5 YEARS for machine work?

 

skib if your goin through that many motors in less then a year. you might wana spend a lil more time at the machine shop.

 

Yeah... getchoself the hookups! Ya motor *****!!!

 

They get replaced by something better not because there crapping out.
I run it, sell it, and build a different one.


I have the hookups thats how/why I keep building motors.


building motors and engineering different set ups is part of the fun for me.
this new one will be fun with a few interesting mods.

 

Skib maby we can get together on the engine i am workin on. me and my freind Autodesk is workin on a good L series engine

 

shoot me a PM

curious to what your friend says

 

Pm is Sent
