Thanks! The gearbox is in pretty good nick, I believe it was rebuilt along with the engine - but I'll have to take a look at that when I go and pick it up in .. Ohhhh 2 more sleeps
When adding bigger/better carbs, how is fuel efficency afterwards ? I found out the fuel gauge on the car doesn't work - but that could be something that was misproperly placed back together when the engine was redone.. Perhaps an easy fix - if not I'm sure I can find a gauge.. I'm just a little worried about if I end up doing a few things that end up burning alot more fuel.. Well pushing cars sucks.
I don't have the room at my house - or the ability to transfer parted out cars around - as I may end up moving sometime soon and .. well moving a few cars isn't the most enjoyable experience.. Had a run in with an Accord I owned. I don't want to think about that one anymore
Tyrie - says you're in Canberra, would you be okay with sharing some good sources of parts and such ? I'm unsure on how to set much up on this engine so I may need a point to a newbie's guide to engine modifications before buying anything... Perhaps - if you feel safe :P - showing me a few meets and such Datsun owners hang out. My car is hardly show-worthy, but over the next few months I wouldn't mind making it something .. Less "I used it for 23 years to go to church and back." No joke.
I'll have to wait a while to get some cash coming in - have just moved here from Canada 2 months ago and havn't had much of a chance to get properly set on my feet, plus I'm finishing school in the next 2 months as well. Then I'll have money to play with, or at least, more.
Thanks for all the possitive feedback, hopefully I'll have something other people around here find nifty in the next couple months..
