New Ride Dave?
Mine was a 1982 with square gauges and that paint does not look like regal mist. That looks more red-orange than maroon.

That tach was the hardest thing to search for in the Pacific Northwest. After my car was totalled, I sold it to someone in the Seattle area for $50.
When I pulled it from the junkyard I cut the plug off the wire harness but found out that the plug was just a standard option on the wire harness because car had one.

Thanks.
I can honestly say its been a long road tuning these 38 carbs. 🙂

Peaks around 7k and that where I shift and when I hit the 1/4 mile. Sticking with the 4.11's.
Not much racing this year but was able to make it out to Import Face Off in Kent, WA. Car runs a 11.50 consistently. Luckily they had a 11.50 index class.
I'm in!!!
Took 1st Place. That was a no brainer. 🙂
Opportunities for some more races in September and early October so we'll see.

Just use a section of 1" radiator hose.
I just plumbed mine into my exhaust. The exhaust flow sucks any blow by in the crank case out the tail pipe.

Put a drag hose on it and plug your intake. You dont need to put that crap back into your cylinders. 👍

Been at the track twice so far this year. Car has been running great but my times are still not improved. 4.11 gears with 26 inch tires. I have decided to not quite go back to the 4.30 gears. I use to run the 1/8th mile with the 4.30's and 23 inch tire so im going to try the 23's with the 4.11's.
The 23's have a wider tread anyways which should help if i plan to bump up the nitrous a bit. 👍

Ive been running carbs on my Datsuns for years.
If i was to bet a dollar on every person that told me you cant run a carb on a KA24D (drop the "E"), I'd be rich.
Twin Weber 38 sync's with a draw through supercharger runing a Chevy 350 distributor. And lets back that up with some Nitrous.
Some would say I have the fastest carbureted Datsuns/Nissan on the planet.
That may not necessarily be true but for my sake, i would hope so.
So many things come into play to make this happen. Fuel delivery, ignition timing, spark plug choice and gap.
Its a science, and in the end, knowing how to read "Spark Plugs' is crucial because a computer is not doing it for you.
I will go through 5 boxes of spark plugs in a single day at the track. 👍
Its taken me years of trial and error and multiple engine rebuilds to get where im at.
750 CFM though a 4 cylinder is very do-able.
I enjoy every second of it. 🙂

I talked with him on the phone today. He told me winters coming because its 80° and sunny in Maui today.
Nothing but cold and rain here in Seattle.

Ok. He's Alive and well. 👍
