insain lol but then again i am squeezing a 460 ford donk in to a ute that only came out a 200ci 6 banger

watermelons, balls the size of watermelons. youd have to have them drive this around, it would be permentaly sideways in my hands

woah now that is nice , does anyone know who owns this beast? as i am going to be doing a v8 conversion on a datsun sometime and need some idea on what you need.


Karl

I know of a 1200 Coupe which is ready for a V8 for sale the owner is after any reasonable offer.

Karl, I had a hand in building this beast..it was not a 5 minute job. Apart from the tunnel mods, I built a new crossmember, front struts, narrowed Ford diff and an extensive rollcage which tied the car together. It was completely seam welded on my rottisserie. It has Series 5 RX7 discs, hubs and calipers on the front to match the Ford rear pattern. It still had the leaf springs with radius rods and a watts linkage. The rear shocks were hung off a crossmember welded between the rollchage rear stays. It also had a stainleess steel drop tank. With the blower on it it was a real handful but was a hell of a lot of fun. The car was sold months ago minus the blower to be used in rally sprints but I've heard nothing of it. Without the blower the standard bonnet was fitted and it was the ultimate sleeper...giving more than a couple of WRX drivers a hell of a scare !!!

Quote:Wow! I'm surprised it fits under an unmodified bonnet, but what a sleeper that is.

bump for the V8 thread....
