Ok before I go and tear down my Z car engine. I'm just wondering if You can safely put a P90 head on the early style 280ZX block that came with the N47 Head. I'm mainly worried if all the oil passages and coolant passages will be right.

I know that. But don't the N47 block and F54 Blocks have different cooling passages?

lol, that's between the cylinders, I believe the F54 blocks have siamesed cylinders, where no water goes between the cylinders, and the N42 (not N47 ) blocks don't have siamesed cylinders, where water can go through between each cylinder.
