Beau M Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) Do you take them to the yard? The recycling place? Tear it down and sell the pieces on e-bay? I'm taking the engine and tranny out of the Z tis weekend, but dont know what to do with it after that. Coffee table? Edited April 23, 2009 by Beau M Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Scrap yard, but you'll have to haul it there. List it on this, and other Datsun forums with a complete description of parts and lots of pictures. Sell for a nominal amount. If you say for free then it has no value and you will get people who will want it but because it's worthless, they will probably not care enough to show up and this wastes your time. Someone out there will think they are getting a great 'deal' when they get a parts block for $50 and a tranny thrown in and think this is too good to pass up. Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 did you get the 280Z 2+2 off craigslist or are you the owner? I'd want an L28 but only if its the F45 block and P79 head Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted April 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Yeah, I think the same way. I put it up here for 50, next stop is CL I guess. -I own the 2+2, I have no idea what the block/head numbers are. Tell me where to look and I'll find em for ya. Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Here is an example of one. this one is of course the N42 and N47. Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted April 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'll check tonight. Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 5speed????????? Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted April 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm pretty sure its only 4, but I've never driven it. I'll row through em tonight also. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Rowing through them isn't enough. Some are pretty sloppy and you don't want someone whining "where's 5th". Here is a Z 4spd. Look just forward of the shifter on top of the tail stock. If it's a 4spd there will be a small rectangular cover plate with 6 bolts holding it on. The cover plate will also have a breather cap on it. http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q251/datzenmike/Tranny/transF4W71Blongtail1.jpg[/img]"] Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 It's pretty safe to assume the l28 isn't f54. I can see someone swapping the f54 from a zx into a z but not with the 4 speed. Never hurts to ask though anything is possible. Quote Link to comment
Beau M Posted April 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Looks like I got the worst of both worlds. The tranny looks exactly like the 4 speed pictured, with the plate and the breather. The head says N-47 and the block is an N-42. Quote Link to comment
vindats1 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 hi, if the engine is no good, I have a great fellow who is my scrap hauler...and he gets plenty from me. Let me know and I can call him, if you can't sell the parts. Tana Quote Link to comment
