Different people do different things to different cars for different reasons. I like using the datsun shells coz they are light weight, and most of the time free or cheap. Which is why i like using them for drag racing. When you have a light little car you don't have to jam a big expensive motor in the front of it, so you can just use something simple but effective. I'm not asking you to like it, but at the end of the day it is my car and i will do with it what i wish. In answer to your question pepper, yes i have started cutting into it, unfortunately i have to cut the firewall to fit the 6 in. I did look at a L24 engine but it was shagged, so i'm sticking to the 250. Was there anything else pepper?
