I am lingering on the same notion of an L28 N/A upgrade for my mr30 skyline.
my friend has a 240k, as said before their heads have small ports and their compression is high but their flow is crap.
here are some random facts;
*going efi will straight up make a noticable difference, although i'm not sure whether efi is compattible with earlier l24heads such as e30-31 heads. they come stock with e88 heads on mr30 skylines.
*p90, p92 and other heads of the same type were used on the turbo model 280z's. they have a compression of around 7.00:1 i think.
*e-series heads usually have high compression but have really bad flow.
*n-series heads such as n42 and n47 are ideal for non-turbo setups because they have high compression and high flow. when looking for an N-series head go to U-pullit and look through all their Mr30 skylines, most have e88 heads- what mines got(they're still better than e30,31 heads), but you should be able to find some n42/n47 heads amongst them. i think it costs about 80-110 for a block or head individually from lonsdale and elizibeth U-pullits. and there should be plently of mr30's there.
Blocks:
L24- alright for a bodge turbo setup
L28- excellent for N/A. if you're looking for a straight on conversion with an L28 head, then get one WITH FLAT-TOP PISTONS. -even higher compression.
*an L28 block with flat-top pistons and an n42 or n47 head will get you a whopping compression level of 9.5 to 10.5 depending on how it's setup. which is so high you'll be running premium.
*'apparently' there isnt too much difference between the restriction of L28 manifolds to L28 extractors, but i cant comfirm this.
*the efi used on L24 and L28 engines should be interchangable.
*if you go with an N/A setup consisting of an L28block-flat-top pistons and an N47 head-ported, with a 2 & 1/4 exhaust and EFI'd you'll be looking at about 180-190hp at the flywheel i think. maybe more.
if you play your cards right you shouldn't be paying too much for this upgrade assuming that you do it by yourself.
EDIT: also as stated before you will also want the cam grounded, i think 2x1000rpm - 7x1000rpm would be an ideal powerband.
*although this all seems well and good, the hardest thing to get your hands on would probably be an F54 block. they are sought after by datsun enthusiasts.
