Engine tear down II
Continued Images of the Engine tear down. Note that the cylinder walls look worse then they are…this is a result of the sharpness of the camera I am using…they did pass the fingernail test and were within specs. I have however decided to go with a .040 mm over since its apart anyway.

Engine Tear Down I
This engine was originally going into the 240Z…but it is over a year away before I will even be close to worrying about the engine. So it is going to go into my 280ZX..which will be going from NA to Turbo as the original electronics have been giving me a problems over the last 6 months.
This will be a complete tear down and rebuild…the original owner had some rather interesting methods to “fix” the engine.

240z Floor Prep
Prep work continues on the floor area. You can see my attempt in picture 5 to restore some of the original rail. I am not sure if I am going to cut it out or not, but at least it makes good practice for a rookie welder.

240z-Floor Pan Removal
Early floor pan removal…as usual there is more rust in areas then expected. I am trying to salvage the original frame rail and weld over it with a replacement kit from zspecialties.com
