hey apollo, i may want the head, it was a p series head right? c'mon apollo, bleach drove all the way up here with no power, and i mean no, except when he just aboot drove off the road at my shop, when he suddenly had massive boost. then he decided to show off his madd skillz
shady you should of said something. i got two P79's just siting. One is complete. One is just head with valves. The one that's complete came right off a running 83. the striped one but still has valves and springs came in a parts bin. Complete one even has HTS, and valve cover.
i take all the p series head i can get, i love thos things! when i race im gonna need a few, cause if i break something (like a valve) itll come in handy. one like apollos is good to take the liners out of for practice, then i can get more. muhhahahaha
So i finaly got some work in today. Took the next couple days off work to make a 4 day weekend for myself to get the majority of work done on the swap plus celebrate my birthday. Man o man, im ready to start surgery on the 2+2 and yank out the block, tranny and diff. i got most of the front end stripped. Hood, fenders, bumper most acc. etc.(im also stripping the 2+2 for sales later) Just need to grab the engine hoist and bring it over to the new location tomorrow and i'll haveit out and back in the NA hopefully by tomorrow afternoon. Maybe wired up and running by monday? Maybe i can get Darrelbuddy to come through and help in the wiring dept.*cough cough* Pics to follow . .
Wow I wish you were closer to me (I'm in NY). If you're going to cut up the donor I need a slice off the front passenger side...

IM SO ****ING CLOSE!!!
The complete turbo block and T5 tranny are in the Z. Just need to button up a few things and get Darrelbuddy to come through and wire her up . . . .and then i need to find a turbo coupe driveshaft. Now who might have one of those? Maybe someone local? Maybe someone like . . . lww. . .he might know where one is.
Pics to come manana as i am on a 56k connection right now. Man o man. Its so close i can almost smell the exhaust.

Darrelbuddy? uhh... didn't he have wiring probelms for months on his turbo swap?
hehe...
ya, I've had a turbo coup driveshaft for sale on Hybridz for a while now. Did you do any shopping around?
or better yet, I'll sell you a driveshaft for $500 and it includes a free turbo car! just come pick it up.

Well im off to finish what i can on the Z. After that. . . .its time to take the torch to the 2+2. Its deserves nothing less. Well maybe a couple sledge hammer blows, but mostly the tourch. I've stripped it of any decent parts but the rest has a date with the scrap heap.
Yea Darrell had one tiny little ground that was causing problems, but it was a mistake anyone could have made. He knows his ****. A lot more than i know when it comes to wiring up a turbo car anyways.
If lww doesnt hook it up with the d.s. i'll hit you up bleach. ORRRRRR ( !! idea !! ) i can trade you 2+2 parts. I got 2 beautiful front fenders, t-tops, doors, electronics . . .

I plan on adding an intercooler, new radiator, fuel goodies, stand alone set up and a new turbo later but for now shes a stocker.

This is the last major hurdle between me, my Z and the open road!!!! SO ****ING CLOSE!!!!!!!!!

Now that I have another 240Z, I need that drive shaft as a core... BUT... How about I give you my drive shaft NOW and when Bleach comes down for MSA, he can bring his drive shaft and you can trade the 2+2 t-tops for it, then give me his drive shaft to replace the one I gave you... 
There! How's that? You get your car running right away and I'll have a drive shaft when I finish the T5 swap in my white 240z.
