dat77sun Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 great...its a smog head that restricts flow , i guess there will be a head swap in the future, anyone have any ideas on what head i should go with? Quote Link to comment
dat77sun Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 from olddatsuns.com "This is the L-20B smog head usually found on '77 and later engines. 1.375" intake ports with ROUND exhaust ports. These exhaust ports have steel liners that help burn off emissions. These heads don't flow well and are avoided for high-performance applications. thanks for the info nismo dr Quote Link to comment
dat77sun Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 ITS ALIVE...MUAHAHAHAHA :D , got the weber install finished today, had to remove more smog and make a block off plate, ill take the plate off in spring and repaint it and make it look purty :) , got it on and tuned, and did a burnout :) , runs way better now. make the block off plate out of a old lawnmower hood, and think it turned out real good, with no leaks :) , also got a pick of the modified adapter, with custom modified bolts.

dat77sun Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 well me and a freind took it out and it is amazing, way more power, and better throttle response, it will set you back in the seat :) so the plans are, take the lower out of the front, do a spring over axle in the rear, and get bigger tires, cb, and stereo in it. idk what size tires to get, but i wanna make a 2wd wheelin truck :P Quote Link to comment

dat77sun Posted January 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Why not JB weld it up? idk, that setup is just for now, like i said, come spring ill take it off, and make it look better, its just too cold to paint Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Why not JB weld it up? Might as well remove the BPT valve now too. Quote Link to comment
