awesome!!! i wana see how the Z24 handles boost... maybe slap a S/C on the navara.

nice work!
Keen to see this rockin. Make sure you get a video with sound of the engine running. The whine of a S/C is just so right.

Super!

I finally got around to modeling up an adapter plate for a 6 to 4 lug. And guess what, I just couldn't make it work. I rotated the 4 lug inside the 6 lug and no matter where I placed it, I did not have clearence for the studs up against the socket hole for the 6. This forced me to take a different route. And I am glad I did. I found some 14" 6 lug chrome wheels with the correct backspacing on Summit Racing for an excellent price. And the drag tires I need are a lot less expensive than the 13" tires.
Northwest Driveline wants 200 buck for a custom drive shaft so as soon as the wheels show up, I can get that measured.
The H190 is in and new traction bars built.
Will post pictures shortly.
Thanks.

Picked up my new rearend this week. I figure with the new motor and the old H165 boken, I would have to move up to a bigger axle. This is a H190 out of a 1965 320 Pickup. Aluminum center diff with 4.875 gear ratio. The width is 44 inches between backing plates. I am going to have some 1 inch 6 lug to 4 lug adapters plates made so it should set my wheels where I need them. The axles are around 29mm in diameter with 13 spines. Center diff spider gears are welded up. Right now I am working on leaf spring mounts for the rearend housing. I will be sending the driveshaft up to Drivelines Northwest to get it shortened. After I am done with this, then it will be back to the motor and the Supercharger intake.

That will make it a Datsun 2400.

Cheers for that, cant wait to hear how it goes!

Oil Pickup and Sump Pan.

Very tidy mate, just scored a Z18 turbs setup Im gonna have a play with at a later date on my Z24, looks like yours is going to be a beast once finished!

Any chance you can post some pics of the sump?

Update:

Pushed the car out for a wash after being in the garage for over 6 months.




Engine rebuilt to stock and painted with supercharger mounted.




Nicely and tightly fitted in engine bay. Alternator bracket built and moved to left
side of engine.




The oil pan was a pain in the butt to fab but is completed. Next I will be working on replacing the H165 rearend for a H190. All Fun!
