Eventually I want to go with either R1s or dual DCOEs (just gotta talk myself into removing the booster...) but it all depends on the funds. I tried to contact bogg bros for a manifold and their price was more than fair for what they offer. I'm just stuck on wether or not I want to spend $1000 on the carbs and $200 on tuning for DCOEs or $500 for R1s and a manifold and $500 for tuning... For now the most important thing is to make sure the brakes and fuel lines are good. I'm not even worried about having it running till then because if it runs without stopping I'm sure I'll find myself in a really stupid situation... Impatience is a bitch.

Dual charge with 1000 RCs, it's happening isn't it? Oh, and a 250 shot of NAWS

The carb was trashed due to sitting in a carb dip too long on the second rebuild. My step dad left it in the bucket for an entire weekend and it oxidized. I figure it would be easier and probably more reliable to just swap to the 32/36. Atleast that way I can tune it. Should be better than the A14 carb on an A15 :P

I want to see the F10... Someone should slap a fwd SR in one of these and rev it to 10k :devil:

Mine's more like waiting on datsunfreak to email me a 1200 to work on...

Yea it's been a headache figuring out the rat's nest for sure. I attempted to get it running with the stock carb and gave up. Now the goal is de-smog those manifolds (after I check to see if the intake is a round or oval) and swap on the 32/36. If the intake is round port I may say screw it and go straight to the R1 carbs and a custom manifold. Something is definitely off with the engine though so I'm going to check the timing and hope that's it. The compression checks out at 150ish per cyl dry and wet so it should be sound mechanicly. You are probably right about the long block swap though because the parts all seem to be a match for a stock A14 from a 78 B210 except for the fuel pump which uses the van fuel return system. The stock carb had a wobbly throttle shaft and the rebuild didn't do anything for it. The engine wouldn't idle and bogged on revs. Of course, I think it's vacuum so it's probably timing or fuel or tire pressure. Who knows with A-series voodoo.

Just wear a bubble wrap outfit and fill the car with packing peanuts. That's how eagle_adam packs his fragile old parts... :poke:

Needs moar jibber jabber. Very long day at work and jibber jabber makes it go by much faster.

Well if Tim would let you work on your 1200 it might be a fair fight :P I'm liking the because racecar shifter. As long as the other guy is deaf, this thing will be a mean sleeper :ninja: So, wanna come to GA and shoehorn a VG33 into my B210 sedan? While 4 doors does indeed fit more hoes, A-series may not haul georgia hoes faster than 20mph... Might need stiffer springs to :poke:

You're doing an amazing job with this truck. I usually dislike the 720s because the 521s and 620s seem to have so much more style, but the quality of your work and the attention to detail has made this very unique.

That'd be awesome. You should move closer to Macon so I can intercept the delivery guy...

Maybe datsunfreak can save this one? He usually has a line on people looking for projects it seems and may be able to help find a good home. If you guys were closer I would grab it but that's 2000 miles round trip :(

Damn you... Then you can both help me out and make me a fiberglass front and rear! :) Honestly someone needs to make these available so we can all stop playing the ebay waiting game.

These are a few ideas for flares on a 620.

Sounds like the ginormous box that included my early 620 grill... I still find peanuts around the house from that box.

:blink: Datsun nuts right Mr big? :confused:

Kinda like this idea: And of course, the lovely drift beast:

$200? I hate you... Why the hell can't stuff drop in my lap like this? So what are the plans? Still going to go with the rat rod build? If the car is in decent shape it might be nice to leave it somewhat stock on the exterior, but then again rat rods are always nice :P

Haha, nice name :P

Not one for the super huge tail pipes, but the 4 door looks good and I want to MKIIs...

Haha, love the new name :) So did the machine shop ever finish that modification for the KA trans? If you wouldn't mind sharing the info, I think something like that would really help the LZ guys that are making serious torque. I know MM47 blew his first trans.

Thank you sir! sorry for the slight hi-jack, I has wires to go fix.
