Re: Vancouver Datsun Meet

I cannot recall how the timing chain timing is done on the A block, I have a book around here somewhere, as I re-did an A15 cam chain timing about 5-6 years ago, the former owner didn't have a clue when they did a headgasket. I have no issues helping out, I just have to read up on it before I tackl...

Re: Waynos 1966 datsun 520 ute

Man wayno that looks really good. I'm jelly of your stuff. Decided on a color? Yea, something light that won't show all the imperfections, off white, light blue or green, maybe a yellow, this thing has had so much welding done to it, the metal is like a spring looking for relief, but there is so mu...

Re: Waynos 1966 datsun 520 ute

The exhaust is tucked up above the frame rails from front to back, but not in the photos I posted, I had to disconnect the rear exhaust mount when I raised the body off the frame, it was bending it, I had to disconnect a lot of stuff. I might tackle the front leaf mounts this weekend, have not decid...

Re: Cooling issue with 521, maybe

Mine runs hotter on the freeway when it is hot outside(over 85 degrees), and when I get off the freeway and hit a signal light, the SU bowls start to boil, and cause a temporary miss till they cool again when I get moving.
I wouldn't worry to much about it unless it gets worse.

I myself would not worry about that option till you guys get ever...

Re: Waynos 1966 datsun 520 ute

I got it back on it's wheels today, the neighbor thinks I am crazy, as it is over 95 outside, but I would rather be hot, sweaty, and dirty, than cold, wet, and dirty, so I worked on it till I could drive it on the road again.

Thanks guys. I just feel like on ratsun all it is is canby canby canby, its like come on, theres other shows to, lets not all go into a psychedelic rage over just one.

I agree with this statement, there should be no ours and theirs, it's just a show that I will not miss unless I have expired.

Re: How to assemble a truck shortshaft 5 speed

What rear ends have you ran with this transmission, Wayno? How did you like the results with that/those gearsets? The work truck has 437 gears, and that will never change, as this truck hauls weight and a trailer daily. The 521kingcab has 350 gears, it is my daily driver, it has a SD25 diesel engin...
