Hi all, Managed to get my hands on some Avgas and was wondering what is required to tune it properly in an old L26 engine for the Z? Its completely stock (as far as i know) with refurbished 240z round tops on it. I assume you would advance timing and change AFR, but by how much roughly? Not gonna be...

I know I need to source a 280zx distributor b...

Hi guys thought id do a bit of a proper intro to my Z.. she is a 1978 new Zealand new 260z that my Dad and I picked up late 2013 as a project to work on together while I was completing year 13 at school. We bought the z sight unseen off of trademe, the only info we had about it was that it was parke...
