My C210 Coupe has just said G Bye to the L28 and webers, but has made way to a 308 and 5 speed supra. Allgoing well it will be completed in about 2-3 months. Attachment: P1000262.JPG [ 3.82 KiB | Viewed 4909 times ] |

Should be kinda cool but why a 308? Why not a 350 chev or 384 chev? Plenty of them around. If you are going to all that toruble why not go with something that will really make you smile. A 308 will only produces about 200hp a L28 with webbers that is well sorted will produce the same power use less fuel and be alot lighter (faster car) A 350 chev if it in good nick will produce 350hp with the correct mods. A stroked 350 to 384 will produce close to 400hp. Granted the Chev option will be a bit more money but well worth it IMO. Have fun mate and get some more pics up. |

The Department of Planning and Infrastructure here in W.A basically told me that was the biggest cubic inch I could put in it. I have some B cast heads lined up and a 286 cam, but these will only be put on once it's engineered and regoed. I'm hoping for about 220 hp @tw at some stage. This will be enough, the L28 was putting out about 170 @tw. My problem is I like V8s' a whole lot and besides it'll be something different. |

Oh! and the other main reason is the absolute ease of the swap. I don't have to change too much. No brake upgrade or suspension, the only item they picked me up on with my submission was the size wheels I was putting on. Just means I'll have to put my originals on to begin with. |

My L28 and triples have gone to a better place,hopefully once mated to a Z of some sought, together they may form a winning combination in the desired class. Anyway my L28 combo has been replaced with a 308 and Supra 5 speed which should come to life next week. Attachment:
