Glide or Th350? LY6 240sx
Glide or Th350? LY6 240sx Alright have a 90' Nissan 240sx Coupe.
Have been back and forth with setups for a while. Figured I'd post.
At first I was convinced I wanted a s475 L33 5.3 setup. But now think a 58x LY6 cam only setup on spray might be a good way.
I figure the LY6 with cam might be 440 or so whp. (Max effort, correct me if I'm wrong) and then 175 or so shot (100/75 dual).
Going to have to 5 lug convert with Q45 differential between 3.69 or 3.54 final gear to hold power. But with a glide long gear I feel I can keep 4 lug with a J30 with 3.91 final.
My guess is car will weigh about 2450 when done. Ridiculous weight reduction. I myself weigh 300 lbs.
So given the info.... Would you glide or th350?
Dont worry about asking street the car. I want best track setup for the situation.
Thanks in advance guys,

It's going to be trailered mostly. But will drive down to the local meets etc. from time to time. No real highway cruising etc.
