Engine has early 240 SUs, a header and maybe a mild cam. Runs well, has an aluminum flywheel which took some getting used to. I used to own a 77 280Z 2+2 way long ago and it is good to get back into one of these. They sound great and are reasonably peppy. A fun driver....
anyone here ever have an early Z?
