Yo dude thanks a lot. I just bid on it👍🏾👍🏾

I believe they’re from the same car but not too sure. They both came from the same salvage yard. I’ve been searching for a crossmember on car-part.com but there’s none. Been looking on eBay as well. Might have to post a WTB ad.
About the pedals....I have a complete manual pedal box but can I just remove the auto brake pedal and swap in the manual clutch n brake pedals? I know a lot of Datsuns have the same pedal boxes and u can swap pedals like the 240z

I'm about to do a 4 speed manual conversion on my b310. Got a gearbox but cant seem to find a crossmember. Would I be able to use the crossmember from the auto? Also can I use the stock starter or does the manual have a different one?

I’ll try n measure it after work n see. Just as long as it doesn’t poke too far out I’m good. I’m planning to drop the car too(cutting coils for now). Don’t want the arches sitting on the tires

Looking at these wheels on ebay/SummitRacing that I want to buy for my 79 B310/210. They're aero racing 30 wheels...13x7 with -12.7 offset. Anyone have an idea how these wheels will fit on the car? Will it poke out of the wheel arches too far? I want to go them cuz they are reasonably priced and I want to stick with 13s for now. Already ordered some 185/60/13 tires that are going on the stock wheels for now.

Been having some electrical issues with my 79 b310/210. The alternator light stays on almost all the time. I checked them with a voltmeter and reads between 12.3 and 12.6 volts whether its running or not. Park lights only turn on when the car is running. Both the alternator(replaced today) and battery are new. What do I check next?

@ddgonzal...well u were right on the money...valves were stuck. Tapped n em a couple times n they came loose. Starts right up n runs on all four cylinders. Adjusted the valves cold n hot. Now she purrs like a kitten. No test drive yet til we get wheel bearings back in the car👍🏾💯

Update...We installed new pushrods in the engine and adjusted all the valves. Cranked over the engine and the rod started coming out from under the rockers again. So we adjusted the valves again to be sure n same thing happened...and bent one of the pushrods. So i guess the next step is to pull the head n see what’s going on. Anyone have an idea what the issue could be?

I’m not sure what happened. The previous owner sent me a video of the car n it ran fine. From that time to when it got to me(had it shipped) I don’t know what happened. Thinking maybe I was cranking it n trying to get it to fire with old gas or something...I don’t know. It’s been sitting for 9 years so it’s possible the valve could be stuck. I guess I’ll find out soon here. Had to get new pushrods on eBay(since one is bent). None of the parts stores have em anymore. So I gotta wait to they show up. In the mean time I’ll trying flushing the gas tank and checking out my drivers side front wheel. Looks like it might have a bad tie rod or ball joint or something

Ok.... btw I was actually about the brake/tail lamps... not the brake light on the dash. Sorry for the confusion. Also I looked at the build date on the car and it’s 10/78.

So back to the engine. Finally did a compression test. Cylinder 1&4 were reading 165 and 170. Cylinder 2&3 were reading 30 and 0. So we decided to start taking the engine apart. Took off the rocker cover and 2 pushrods were dislodged from the rockers...the intake rod on #2 and exhaust on # 3(which is bent too). Rocker arms were loose a bit. But is that enough to cause low compression or could there be something more wrong? We are thinking about replacing the pushrods and then see what happens
