im builden a datsun 1200 ute and continually have #### put on me by my work mates. Its going to have an a15 twin 40s, full ported head, double valve springs, cam(not sure of the specs), lightened flywheel, every thing new (by jeff taylor) suspension (by john taylor) reverised eye leaf springs, lowered 2inch all round, strut work, camber change, standard 1200 ute dif and box. To shut them all up i said id run my mates el xr6 for $500. Do i pull out while i have the chance, or double it?

personally i think your cutting it a bit fine hes got 164Kw as stock 0-100 in 7.4 and he's got fuel injection i would hold back give it a run and see how it goes first and if your still uop to it then go for it.

Daniel,
Run em for 500 and if you don't beat him i'll run them for a grand.

tell ya what itll be close

i have fresh a-15 with cam, 32/36 weber, extractors and i went a xr8 EB or ED and it only pulled away slowly, mind you my card is desperate for a rebuild and was flat spotting pretty bad,

she also keeps up with XY 6cyl, so yeah i reckon itll be close but you might win it if ya get the launch right

...and if he beat YRLOSS then i'll race him for 2 grand and get everyone's money back!!

seriously I THINK you would get him. My stock A15 with twin 40's and extractors beats a 6 cyl EB falcon...i'm not gonna put 500 bucks on it though

youll get him for sure your mates car is a nugget!if it is manuel very close!if auto you'll pull on him! my ute is full stockers whilst my ca is getting worked but i have raced v6 commodors and only one car behind them they laugh at me butthey the ones who bought a tank that just beats a old 1.2 carby when i put my ca mind u that is capable of holding up 2 30pound boost! i will be laughing nothing will beat the dato's we got tha power 2 weight on the streets!! got tha datto!

My god DVLDAT, what are you planning on doing to the poor CA to get it to hold 30pound???, you'd be up for big bucks
Cheers

Mines designed for 25-30 psi...

Forgies, shotpeened rods and a good Ballbearing turbo..is all you need...and put it in a 1200..

whooosh..good for 11s at least...

if you say it does 0-100 in 7.4 that would be its best time, if he perfected it, mind you it is an auto an a stockie, wat would i be doin approx? with a good start?

Will this little competition involve any corners??
