Datsun Roadster Forum-311s.org

I wanted to take a minute to thank everyone of you who have ever asked a question or replyed to one, Webmaster before you I am humbled. I have used this site for over two years while I struggled to make up my mind which way to go with my car. I have chased more threads troubleshooting problems with building my car. With luck I will be driving it to the muffler shop running only the header tomorrow or the next day.
I decided to keep the basic appearance, but went old school, with an H20 stroker, Crank scraper, dizzy distributer, GM Alt swap, and a few U20 swaps, radiator(240Z water neck), oil pump, little stuff. Well, and an Ed Bray reground cam, I mean a boy has got to hear his toy.
Well I finally took the plunge and registered as a real person, I just wanted to have a roadster that at turned on before I did! There are a few of you that I have met and that I could not have gotten this far without, Sid as always thanks, Now, Mufflers and then I have got to fix the fenders!\
You are all the best, again Thanks, Denis (Friar)

Top Down? Maybe your screen name should be Viva Las Vegas! or maybe just Elvis for short... LOL!!

Glad to see you came out of the woodwork! Even more glad that you got that beastie going!! I wanna see it before you do the old Westward Ho thing!!

Easy on the mufflers, Give that motor freedom of speach.
As the Harley guys say, "Loud Pipes Save Lives"
Consider it as safety equipment.

Good for you and a stroker to boot. Dennis Louthan posted some info on stroker badges. They look pretty good. I plan to post the info on the main web site but if you are interested let me know and I will send it to you. Oh heck, let me look for it right now. Here it is:

If you happen to have a stroker motor check out this site.
I just ordered one.

Just curious-what carbs are you running? Enjoy the ride.

Steve,

at the moment I am running the standard R16 SU's, I have a set of early 240Z SU's I was mating to a R16 intake, then....I got tipped to the availbilty of a DCOE intake for the R16. The end product will be a pair of DCOE 45's. You know the drill time, money, swmbo..

Want a set of Weber 32/36 downdrafts with the manifold adapters cheap??
1 was enough for a 2.4 liter ford, so plenty of air.

Dave,

Sorry for the late reply, I am really sold on side drafts, interesting set up though, thanks for the offer!

SWMBO is pushing for a massive extra parts clearance sale, especialy since a parts/fix car will be dragged home soon.
