    Bringing a ZHP back onto the road

    So, I'm picking up a ZHP with a blown engine to fix up for my daughters use. Black/tan 6spd. Original owner forgot to add oil after a change and drove about 30 miles before it seized. Ouch. I found a used ZHP motor, though, so a downed ZHP will be returning to the road soon in MN

    Nice. Might be worth salvaging the camshafts from the seized motor too. Can be an upgrade for the standard 330 crowd.

    Don't think I'd want those considering the engine was starved of oil...

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.
