    You will have more success if you only start one thread...

    I understand the patina to a certain degree but when it starts to be really obscured, I think it would drive me nuts. Now mind you, I am looking at this from a drivers perspective. If its a garage queen time capsule, that's different. For me, though, I don't want a car I dont plan on driving. No matter what I paid.
  4. I was also wondering if internal 4 speeds parts will swap too. Like reverse gears or reverse idlers? Possibly synchros, if I were going to cheap out and steal synchros out of a 4 speed box for a 5 speed refurbish

    So is it better to have the original spidering plexi glass then replacements? It would drive me nuts to have that crazing every where.

    I was getting ready to ping you actually! I just thought I would make the discussion public for general benefit and noobs. These, I believe. It will be my truck meter so I will use it at work as well as in the shop. AC Voltage DC Voltage AC Current DC Current Resistance Capacitance (nice if you need to test the start capacitor on an AC unit for your house) Inductance (Are you curious about whether or not that coil is good?) I can use my timing gun for RPM What are the pros and cons of a 115 versus a 117?

    So what are the white marks on the glass? It looks like frost or cracks but is sort of hard to tell what it really is

    I had looked at one of the kits that includes the amperage loop and a couple of other things but there are options even there. I don't really understand what the differences are. The are 15dB's and 17dB's, etc ????

    I am looking at getting a new Digital Multi Meter. Should I get a Fluke? Is it worth the extra money? I saw a Klein that was pretty cheap but didn't know if it was good. If I do a Fluke, which model?

    That'll do it!! Document this good so I can crib off of you when I have to do this

    Yes, you are very close!
  12. I might pull the pan and the valve cover and see how it looks. If it looks good I would probably run it. If you have access to a boroscope you could look into the cylinders through the spark plug holes. Triple Webers are a magnitude more complex than the SU's

    You've made good progress!

    Here's one in San Bernadino Has an aluminum radiator that might be toast. A center console cover that looks factory and might have some good sheet metal on the rear. Pure sale https://www.copart.com/lot/41685739
  15. Excellent!
  16. They're pretty proud of that! I am not sure the market is as strong as it was a year ago

    I agree, on the tight side but inside spec. So I would move on...
  18. Patcon posted a post in a topic in Open Discussions
    Yeah, I would agree with that .003". What is the spec?
  19. The tank coatings have to be absolutely cured before you add gasoline to the tank. I would add the inline filter back to monitor what is coming out of the tank.
  20. I think I would rework work that so the rocker line was straight all the way down. Loss of spots welds or no
  21. The fan temperature sensor might be adjustable. No idea on the timing
  22. The Auto Twirler is a nice unit! I really believe if we had a brand new Datsun right off the factory line, it would still have a decent amount of filler on it. I don't believe these cars were that perfect rolling off the line. I think they are much straighter and flatter after a quality repaint than they ever were factory fresh
  23. I believe the side seals are 38342-n3100 As a side note, I was just going to order new cover studs but they are NLA 38354-p6600
  24. Just made my reservations
