"Yip, I dont see myself letting go of it D I love it too much, I would sell my 1200 and then drive the 1k as my daily before letting it go If I needed to reduce my Datsun total from 2 back back down to 1.   Thanks Dundee, some of the work is about to be..."

"Today I decided to cover up the indicator wiring on the drivers side of my engine bay.   I simply covered it all up with a thin aluminum plate, painted the plate black and added a JNC sticker to the new wire hiding plate.   Im loving the cleaner look.   "

"This afternoon I made up a 2mm diff spacer to enable fittment of a H150 Center.   I wont fit this until I swap motors... but my process was this...   Draw 2 circles @ 155mm and 186mm then cut the center out with a bunch of smaller cuts on my grinder.  ..."

"Thanks D.   From what I hear this should have better low end response when compared to a single weber on a regular manifold.   Peter (the guy I bought it from) said he had both types of manifold on the same engine.   He said this one was considerably..."

"I have made up a second throttle return arm/spring for the other side of my Weber.   I decided that a pair of weaker springs attached from each side would be better than 1 strong spring from just one side.   I ended up adjusting the bends on my manifold..."
