Those RS chassis just make so much sense. Can I build a custom chassis for the cost of what they sell for? Hell no. There are other companies that make a pretty nice chassis, but the RS would be my choice too. Quote Link to comment

Stoffregen Motorsports Posted February 7, 2022 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Long rod, 89mm bore L20B crank? That's what I call the 2200. My favorite motor for a Datsun. 1 Quote Link to comment

Should be good 1 Quote Link to comment

Stoffregen Motorsports Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Dave used to build a short rod 2150, with an L20B crank stuffed into an L18 block. They were neat, but lots of work. Yeah, what's up with all the spellings Ray? Using voice to text or something? Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 The SOHC Fords used to have the cranks turned down to accept smaller diameter hemi bearings. This was to reduce the bearing surface speeds. 2 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Racers of small block chevy powered cars would often use bearing inserts behind the actual bearings so they could use the smaller journal cranks. I doubt they still do this. 1 Quote Link to comment

mrbigtanker Posted April 17, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Also Cerakoted the brake master cylinder and billet reservoirs. I don't want no chrome or polish under hood. I think. 3 Quote Link to comment
Stoffregen Motorsports Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Me too. I really dislike polished aluminum under the hood. Most importantly, all the stuff should follow a them or match. All parts should have the same gloss percentage. 1 Quote Link to comment
