Dat Lurka

If I can find a z22 for 100$ then yeah that might be possible. Head job's gonna cost 100$ It's gonna cost me just under 200$ to go get that L16 But I'm sure I can find a good Z22 for less than rebuilding the L20b. So my U67 on top of a Z22 will make a pretty sweet 4 banger? that's an option for the future

170$ shipped halfway. 720s are all rusted out and rednecked to hell. The only nice ones are the diesels. There's a decent amount of 620s. A few 210s. And as many Z cars as anywhere else. I'm leaving this shithole ASAP and going down south to take care of a few things. Then I'm gonna make my way west. And pretty much so I can play with more datsuns. and the weed.

HEY what do yall think of the L16?

Not to mention the materials of those original headgaskets. Quite similar to the coconut backing on the seats :rofl:

I have two 12'x80' barns and a 25'x65' shop. Tell me about it :hmm:

That's a cool ass car! It's like a mini Falcon If you paint it, you're doing something wrong.

Meh That's all in the future. Here's the present- 1969 L16 with supposed 69k Picking up saturday.

Why should the headgasket be bad from sitting? It's already a long block. I can swap out for the new headgasket no biggy. Stroke it.

That was fun

I'm picking up a 1969 L16 with 69k this weekend. It's been sitting an estimated 15 years and it turns trough without a problem. It's a long block but everything else is in a box. The best part is I'm paying what it will cost just to get the head done on the L20b. I assume it will bolt in no problem. Oh, and it has a finned valve cover B) When I can afford to build the L20, the L16 manifolds will be a replacement for the crap L20 smog ones. And I assume the l16 will get better fuel mileage than the 226k miles L20

Best name for my truck so far is Cheap Whore

Don't forget to check the bulb socket. #1 datto light failure

Trucks are cool. I like trucks. Give us pictures. Or you just suck.

Fix the rust, and the moss, then cover the entire car in astroturf.

I hate electronics. I know there are relays for those. And on your truck I THINK they are under the passenger side of the dash.

My engine seems seemed to like the heavy oil.

Not doing the overhaul till I get to FL and can afford it. My heater core and valve work flawlessly. Speaking of off subject let's keep my issues in my thread lol

While it's just a block I think I'm gonna pump some diesel through all the oil and water channels. I'll be sure to run it through a strainer so we can see how much shit is actually in there. Probably more oak leaves.

I just recently noticed the coolant lines running down the inner fender well. My KC used to be an Automatic. I wonder how many miles are on the 5 speed. I wish it still had A/C <_< Is anyone running one of those generic A/C kits in a 620?

Well I'm doing an oil change when I put it back together. Considering my oil looks like thin coffee with lots of cream... And the coolant is frothed milk with georgia clay :rofl: I'm gonna see what NAPA has to offer.

I use whatever Advance has on sale. 5 quarts and a filter for 20$~ I run 15/45 but will probably go down after rebuild. Oh yeah, those advance deals come with FRAM FILTERS And I use them to spite you guys.

Meh I'm thinking brushless electric squirrel cage supercharger. It's a project I'm working on.

The engine in this thread is at 227k When I do the rebuild it will probably come out to a 2.1 because it really really really need to be bored. I expect it to someday be a 2.4 with 1,000,000,000 miles.

Theres a guy down the road with an 86' with I6. Hes going on 400k on original engine. A few years back the hg blew and I helped him do one of those crazy three part flush repair deals and it worked. He drives it every day.
