Last year on the way to Shasta I blew the electrodes out of two Autolite I mean, blew them out... gone! The "gap" was almost a quarter inch. However, with the Jacobs Pro-street I run, the car ran fin
How about a return to the days where we actually talked about roadster problems... (Because any Roadster person who treats other Roadster people without honor represents a problem, in my opinion. May
Yes Phil, how? Inquiring Roadster minds want to know! Greg Burrows Looking for cool wheels for the VG30 turbo (next year?!?!?!?) /// datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net mailing list
All of these things are possible (welding, cutting new gears, etc etc.), but I think you all do not realize that most shops that are set up to do these things are not going to take a job for making a
Sel, as one lister indicated, another option would be to paint the frame. But as I recall, you wanted to do something to the inside. What you might do is drill some holes through the top cap in sever

Well, like you said in your first email, the jackshaft is keyed, so it can only go on one way, right? I don't have my block here right now, but I just went out and looked at the gears, lining them up
Not Old style, yes, so you might still be able to get parts for them! Regrinding an A cam to B cam or better specs is no big deal, and jets are still available for these carbs. The hardest thing to c
Daniel, a good welder who knows what he/she is doing with aluminum could probably weld it pretty easily. Don't you just love losers like that? Greg Burrows /// datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net mailing
With all due respect, higher octane gas does not contain more power, it actually resists pre-ignition and detonation better. It burns more slowly, thereby allowing you to run higher compression and m
I'm a bit confused: are the wheels loose up and down or in and out (as if you were pushing them up and down or inboard and outboard)? The 280zx wheels I have (6 spokes) use that special shouldered ni
