Well, he didn't tell me anything of what the motor has done to it but the only thing he did tell me is that he has like $1,500 dollars in the head alone. I hate to know how much the block has in it.

hmmm wot did your uncle do to the a15 to get it to do that well?

I guess. But he won't be able to mimic my uncles car that is all motor, no N2O or turbo. It plays hard everyday and is his daily driver.

Thanks Boof - was just trying to get the idea how fast a car needed to be going to beat a Mustang 5.0L by 5 or 6 car lengths....

Well, i don't know the times that the datsun does on the strip but the straight in front of my house is probably about 100 or 200 feet and he blasted buy my house like 7 seconds flat.

His Datsun was a fource to be messed with.

mopars A15 race car was doing " best run was a 15.01 at 91.39 mph" at the calder drag day earlier this year.

have a read here for more of the times if you're interested

Were these races timed on a quarter mile strip? I'd be interested into how long it takes the modified A15 to get down the quater mile.

Also the 60ft time would be good too!

I no it won't macth up to a car with turbo and N20 but I have seen first hand how quick his Datsun really was. Once he raced a friend of mine who had a Honda Civic B18 turbo and he beat him with about 4 lengths. All I could heard when he passed me was "Woosh" because of how quick he was going.

oh sorry I didnt realise you were talking about an a15. Still, beating an old v8 in a heavy car doesnt mean it will match a turbo car with N2O.

good luck to you I hope you end up with something you enjoy

I know you think I may be lying but I am not. My uncle brought to me several of his friends who have seen it in action and that the biggest race my uncle had was against a 5.0L Mustang with Holly 4 barle and hooker headers and beat it by 5 or 6 lengths.
