flat land rider Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 Hey, I know some one that has an L28 from a 83 280zx that they are selling. Out of curiosity does anyone know if this would fit in my 80 720 w/o to much modifications?? Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 It would bolt to your tranny but is much longer so you would have to re-locate the rad to the bed and run an electric fan. You would need a high pressure fuel pump for the EFI. Doubt the motor mts. would line up. The 720 brake booster might be in the way of the EFI. If you cut into the firewall it could fit with the rad but the tranny would have to move back and that would need a shorter drive shaft and on and on...that's a no no. All in all, I would not do this. Only one or two ways to get it right and too many to screw it up. Save up for a used VG motor/tranny from a D-21 truck. Quote Link to comment
xtrmemtnmn Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I know someone who put an L28 in a 510. They remade a new firewall and moved it back a bit. That thing was fast though. It ended getting totaled. Any who I am guessing the same with the fire wall would have to be done. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 4, 2008 Report Share Posted October 4, 2008 I'm guessing the L28 would be much heavier than a VG as well for the same power. Even a KA24E would go good and plenty of info for the swap on here. Quote Link to comment
