I went to my first car show today, and got 1st place in the Datsun/Nissan class! Feeling pretty happy.

Ha! OS Giken Super Lock part number NS046HA.

I haven't tried that Eastwood paint, but I have to tell you that you make that outfit look good! Party on, my friend!

Your weekend looks kinda like my weekend! I've been blasting all my suspension parts with a $20 Amazon blaster and some Black Beauty blast media I picked up at Harbor Freight for $10 (man, hooray for HF). The completely bodgy cardboard-box setup I had did almost exactly nothing to keep the mess down; my jerry-rigged Rubbermaid container "blast cabinet" was better, but I still spent all weekend looking like a 19th century coal miner. Yeah, wear a mask!

Looks pretty hardcore mark! Looking forward to see your progress

My 76 with the non-webbed intake has a pretty big hole in the heat shield above the 3 and 4 exhaust ports. Seems like it's a natural channel for a lot of heated air to pass up and by the 3 and 4 injectors. Nissan made the webbed intake for 1978 (maybe 77 too) and blocked that hole with a small heat shield (it has to be opened to reach the top-center manifold fastener). Must not have wanted any air at all coming up from below. Check out the link in #107 to see what Chrysler did for their hot injector problem. Might help to insulate 3 and 4, if not all of them.

Congrats Matt! Gotta feel good! Well deserved btw!

congrats - well deserved!

Hats off to you my friend!

on a side note I would like to thank Norm at www.zeddsaver.com for plating my right and left door window frames. These turned out looking like brand new frames.
