OK guys, so I bought an early 240z a couple weeks ago that's already been converted into a track car. It has already been gutted and, well, it's basically a tube frame car at this point. The only thing that's still Datsun is the skin. It does have a Datsun L6/5-speed in it that I will use as my foundation. Currently as it sits, all I know it needs to run is an intake, carb, fuel cell and battery. The car was set up by the previous guy to run the shitty Datsun FI system. That's going in the shitcan, because it is basically shitty. However, I am considering going with a salvage yard TBI system. My concern is that the engine I intend to put in next year might require high octane gas, even leaded gas. I'm not sure but I don't think I can run leaded gas with an O2 sensor, which would be required if I end up going FI. Or am I wrong?
The other option is obviously to go carbureted and be done with it. My concern there is setting up a carburetor for high G track events. I'm guessing I will be fighting fuel starvation at some point and wondering what I can do to minimize that. Suggestions?
