lorozco Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Greetings all, I'm new to Ratsun and am pleased to be around people who love Datsuns. I have three Datsuns that I'm restoring. A Datsun 510, 620 truck and turbo 280zx. I have had my Datsuns since 1979/1980 and its time to play again! I have an older version of the v912 head on a motor i built in 1983 and I am looking for another one. Any ideas regarding where to find one? I have a flow bench and porting equipment. Therefore, I can make a copy as long as i have a peanut head. However, those of you that have ported/polished a head know that its a lot of work. Any direction or leads will be deeply appreciated. Looking for help, Lorozco Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 If you can lay your hands on a closed chamber head, the intake runners can be widened out to 1.5", thus making it a 219/V912/SSS head. Larger valves will also need to be installed, but it's totally doable. Quote Link to comment
Doctor510 Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 One of the best heads available today for porting/polishing etc is the W-53 in the absence of a V912. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 All buying and selling must be done in the classifieds... http://community.ratsun.net/classifieds/category/4-engine/?sort_key=date_added&sort_order=desc This keeps our forums clear for information sharing and discussions..
