you will invest as much money dropping a sr in a 240z if you were dropping an RB.

It'll cost much less to swap a small-block chevy in it and it has been done, so you'll have somekind of reference.

This is a 327 small-block bored to 400.
Based on Desktop Dyno 2000, 490 lbft @ 4500 rpm, 480 hp @ 5500 rpm. If I get 85% of that, I'll be more than satisfied!
