<VV> Fuel injection

[Bryan Blackwell]

That adaptation was initially done by Milt Binion and appears in the  
Tech Guide.  A fellow club member did one some years ago, and Jeff  
does really nice work but he could never really get it to work  
*right* - although it idled smooth as glass.  My take is that it's  
not a very good match - the 280Z engine is the same displacement, but  
that's about it.  It's a much higher RPM engine (7k redline), the  
bore and stroke is different, the cam timing is different, and it has  
a hemi head.

A much better conversion, IMHO, is using the 2.8 or 3.1 liter GM V6  
system.  If you check, you'll find that the 2.8 engine specs are very  
similar to ours.  Craig Nicol has done such a swap and it sounds much  
more successful.  I think he wrote it up for the Communique, and one  
of these days I'll ask him if I can make a web page with his photos  
and text.
