Viper Powered 240Z

[Dan Cragin]

I put the finishing touches on a Viper powered 240 Z. Most conversions like this tend not to drive so well, but this Z is a really impressive driver.

That is really cool Dan. Well done!

Wow very cool! I haven't looked much into it, but I haven't seen such a unique and great looking set up like this before. I like it.

 

[The_Greg]

Totally awesome. Videos needed!

That'll fool a lot of people on the street for sure!!!! Since the Viper block is aluminum and the Z block was cast iron (I think), what's the weight difference before and after? Nicely done BTW!

I bought 2 brand new Z cars back in the day.... an 81 280ZX and an 87 300ZX but the 240-280's were much cooler before they added the stupid X on the end and tried to move upmarket. Nonetheless I enjoyed both of mine thoroughly. Especially the 81 with the rear window louvers

Now that is an all beef ******!

I had a '93 Twin Turbo Z, loved that car. Best sports car I've owned, until Viper.

Can't believe you got that in there...very nice!

Damn. Can we get some video up in here?

Damn. Can we get some video up in here?

That's when they got interesting again. Very wide, low and sleek for the day and they were pretty kick ass for back then....

Dan, that is slick! I hope you post some videos of it!

I traded in my single turbo 40th Anniversary 270Z for my Viper. I love my Zs and I love my Vipers.

And the neon purple street glows underneath? I though that was you in Seaside .

Perfect set up to make an unsuspected passenger poop his or her pants

 

[ACRucrazy]

What's it weigh.

Can't believe you got that in there...very nice!

That's what she said. (had to)

Wow, that's impressive for sure. More pics & vid would be awesome.

My 1st car was a 1978 280Z loved that car. Nice job you have a monster on your hands. I think back than I had 170 HP.
