Datsun411SSS Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 GEEZUS!!! that cam sounds soooo good... damn... i want a KA, that cam and some R1 carbs... haha yea it does... in this video it was idling like at 800 rpm which is pretty low for this aggressive cam... I had cold start issues not holding its idle... I have now adjusted the idle to 1k and seems to be starting easier in the mornings... Quote Link to comment
ppeters914 Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Very nice. I believe you may have the first completed KA24 into a 411 swap ever. :thumbup: Now, what about the windshield wiper motor? :confused: Quote Link to comment
Datsun411SSS Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Wiper motor gas been mocked up bit it makes my engine bay look ugly >_< We ain't getting much rain here in socal so I'm not in a rush.... It will be going on by the end of this year though before the rain begins ... Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Wiper motor gas been mocked up bit it makes my engine bay look ugly >_< Maybe a little gold anodize on the housing? Would look good with the red color of the car. Taking the car to JCCS? Quote Link to comment
Datsun411SSS Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Maybe a little gold anodize on the housing? Would look good with the red color of the car. Taking the car to JCCS? yeah, i was thinking of aluminum color but i think your idea sounds better....yea it will be at jccs this year... at least thats the plan.. Quote Link to comment
Datsun411SSS Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Well the car has been driving great for the last few weeks since i began driving it.... the original 240 inline fuel pump seemed to be surging while running so I have replaced it with a walbro 255 inline fuel pump and the car seems to be running alot better.... Today I did a small mod to help with the heat coming from the exhaust... Im not sure if its going to help much but atleast its not a direct shot of heat straight to the air filter... Heat shield ran me a whole $5 :) Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 are you gonna clean up the valve cover and plenum? Quote Link to comment
Datsun411SSS Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 i may be going with a a nice polished valve cover... also cleaning up the plenum to make it all look better.. Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 then maybe polished aluminum housing for the wiper motor would blend in with the engine if you go with a polished valve cover Quote Link to comment
ppeters914 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 I want to see it mounted and working first. Then y'all can worry about making it pretty. Quote Link to comment

Datsun411SSS Posted September 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Carbon fiber lip?! yay or nay ?? =P Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 the carbon fibre is nice but it doesn't look at home. maybe if you were do a full paint job etc.... Quote Link to comment
Noiin Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Please tell me this can be done on a PL411?.. like MY pl411. ?????????? Quote Link to comment
Leprechaun311 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Yay on the CF. The CF scoop will look more at home if the roof rack "fairing" is CF as well. If you send me some contact info, I'll make ya one, as I have enjoyed this thread and it has inspired me to get goig on a 411. I teach fiberglass classes at a local Junior college, so get the materials on a barter system / trade, and the flat panel won't need to be tooled. I am a lurker to the site, so will try to find the PM links/tab, and send you the contact info. I will need the size of the fairing (although wider might look a bit better) and specifically the hole sizes and spacing. Quote Link to comment
Datsun411SSS Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Well after todays 10 mile drive on the rain, I thought it was a good idea to get my Wipers working... With minor modifications to the bracket, they are on and working as before the swap... See video below of them in action... Just need minor adjustments to the arms as they are touching at the tips when meeting... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7QmL2YiCOo&feature=youtube_gdata_player Quote Link to comment

To adjust the blade position, pick the arm that settles lowest when shut off and adjust upwards slightly. It may take 2 tries but it works! After they clear on the upward stroke, the downward stroke is the tricky one. Quote Link to comment
