Andrew, The engine arrives mid November. If I take the LZ20B turbo route, most likely will use an early S110 Silvia body shell.
If I keep it N/A, I wouldn't mind a 710SSS and do an LZ18 or a leave it as the (1600cc) LZ14 if I can get a PB210 Sunny Excellent???? These were the cars they were used in by the factory teams in the 70's. Trouble is neither the 710SSS or PB210 shell is reasonably easy to get.
