Now, should I get hypeuretic [?] A14 pistons, wade cam with anti pump-up lifters, yella terra roller rockers, 36/32 webbers, mikkuni's b310 distributor jeeeeze I could go on for ever but any sugestions and tips will be very appreciated

Do you know the diference between Hypoutectic and Hyperutectic pistons? The a14 piston is 76mm while the a12 is 73mm.
Finding anti pump up lifters may be a problem too as the Datsun lifter is solid, not hydraulic, and i wonder what advantage does the B310 distributor have over other models since they are pretty much the same.
Two downdraught carbs may be a bit much and you have to wonder why this is not a popular swap, or why no one makes a manifold for this conversion.

My first and strongest suggestion to you is to find someone who knows something about Datsun engines before you do something you regret, or do a lot of learning fast. Like others have said on this site, get a workshop manual.

EDIT I just read your last post. If you want the engine, then buy it as they are a lot of fun in stock trim and it might be a good idea to run it like this for a little while untill you learn something about engines in general and Datsuns in particular. It will save you some grief and money.
