I just pulled the trigger with a Rebello kit. Dave is prepping me a block and I bought his kit to assemble myself!

I've come to realize you have a twitching trigger finger. I'm gonna call you Josey Wales. 8^)

CONGRATULATIONS Steve! Makes me happy when somebody buys themselves a nice gift. Can't wait to read a d see this.  Cliff

.......and a twitching wallet (LOL). You really better love the ITB’s ( and I’m sure they are awesome). The head had to have $2500.00 worth of port work to match the ITB intake. Add that to the $10,000.00 for the total set up and labor. But, the real killer was if something happens, it’s a totally computerized set up.....no clue what to do to fix it....cold feet. Heck, all but one of my Z’s still have points! Guess carbs are what I understand.....and at more than half the price, easier to choose.

^ What ECU are you using?

Chickenman........I've Changed my mind from ITB's to Mikunis.......just too expensive when you add everything up.

I don’t know if that was meant for me- but no ITB’s for me - yet. I don’t understand how 2500$ worth of work is needed to match ITB’s anyway.

I’ll be running single TB modified intake(Canon manifold with custom plenum). EFI is a one time $$ changer over from carbs, the initial investment hits hard.

 

Rolling on.......Things are starting to take shape.........I’m ready to hear this motor come to life!

Love Eiji's attention to detail. Looking fantastic! Ready to go for a ride with this monster!

Any specifics on the head? Stock valve sizes? Doesn’t look like any bowl work was done. Looks like 44cc Chambers so pretty big cut on the head. 

Nothing out of the ordinary....Stainless steel swirl valves....Isky springs and Stage III .490 lift camshaft. The head is cut .080 inches, then cc’d...the P79/P90 heads are very efficient as they come. I believe Eiji is shooting for 11 to 1 CR. That head looks perfect doesn’t it? No electrolysis at all.

I never get tired of cool Datsun stuff......going to the bottom end.

 

 

Should be in my garage next week.....
