L28 crank

[irondragon]

I broke the crank in my 280Z ITS car at Summit Point.
All else in the engine looks good, so I'm looking to buy a replacement crankshaft. Preferably one that has not been re-ground but all offers will be considered. My engine # is 253698 and i'm hoping that all L28 cranks are interchangeable - any comments on this ?

Check the ‘parts and accessories’ page on zcar.com. Someone there will probably have one for sale. If not, check out the ‘links’ page for z car pars suppliers. I have a couple of cranks at home, but I think they’re for a L24.

I don’t know for sure if the crank out of a pre V6 Maxima will work or not, but I think so.

Or call Eddie Radatz at E. Radatz Motorsports. He's been involved in racing Z cars forever (including the EP 240Z of Grayson Upchurch, Jr.) and I am sure he has a bunch of 280Z cranks laying around the shop. He can be reached at 770.926.6609 (Atlanta Metro area).

Yes, all L28 cranks are interchangeable.
