i have a fsm and the haynes manual. the haynes had the 280 intake but not the exhaust (it also listed the early 240 exhaust as 35mm) and i couldnt find it in the fsm.

google found me every other kind of valve on a 280 but the valves in the head

thanks to you both   sb

SB I think you should ditch the Haynes and get a $20 How to Modify Your Datsun by Frank Honsowetz. The things you've been inquiring about lately are thoroughly covered in that, plus it's a good read about older racing setups.
