Stopped watching after the guy ran all over the seller. Seller was near his budget to start with but wanted to rip his head off to line his on pocket. I have no respect for a man like that. They could have both come away in a win-win, oh well...

I like those. They would look good on the right build. Prices?

How long ago did I mention brake booster???? If the booster is bad the master cylinder is probably leaking too...

Jalexquijano You never answered my question about what happens if you try to rev the engine when sitting in traffic and the idle gets erratic. I still suspect too much fuel pressure or float levels. If it's a needle problem he will have a hard time finding someone to help get it right

You will find this is the easiest place to move your parts but most people here aren't interested in paying top dollar for parts. If they wanted to that they would already bought what is available on ebay. Even at fairly reasonable prices you aught to be able to get your money back and more. Also I hope you didn't cut the dash harness to get the fusebox out. I have seen those harnesses sell for good money...

I like the denim jacket idea. Find an embroidery shop and get a big image - Datsun logo, whole car - embroidered on the back

Ahhh... the eye of a professional

I saw that car on Ebay and almost posted a link. It's a nice looking car with some sensible upgrades

I hate that! Hopefully the wait won't be too long...

It was a good game. My wife and I are Clemson alumni and our oldest daughter is a freshman at Bama. It was a good game and Bama is a formidable team. The onside kick was the deal breaker but Clemson made little mistakes all night that you can't do against a team of Bama's caliber, sealing the edges, big plays and big kick return. Overall I was glad they represented well and congrats to a very good football team...

True, but my seat of the pants logic goes like this. The tanks holds about 15 gallons at 3 psi can you think of a scenario where you burn all the fuel in the tank in an hour??? If you can't do that then you have enough fuel supply, give or take....

Dave Patten @ Futofab would be another vendor that makes repops...

Put it in the classifieds or on ebay or both. You could pm some of the racers on the site...Jeff, Chuck, John Coffey, etc... if they don't want it, they might know someone who does...

The ratios will determine how the tranny behaves behind any given engine. You won't know the difference if the ratios are similar to a yellow metal used tranny. You are also not likely to flog your newly rebuilt one on the street the way a track tranny is used. If it's a competition tranny sell it and rebuild a more common tranny and use the rest of the cash to work on the car. Win win for everybody...If it has the lower 1st gears it will actually be slower off the line because races cars don't spend much time in 1st gear, racers want close ratios because they can keep the engine in the sweet spot rpm wise. A street car almost never gets driven like this, continuous operation in 4,000-6,000 rpm range or higher

When you're done it will be worth more than $27k maybe more depending in how long you take

or you could have a bad ground some where and the current id feeding to ground through the light...

The reason you are six thousand dollars in and still have problems is you just randomly try things!!!! If you want to fix it without wasting money pay attention and take the advise that is given...these aren't hard things to do. My ten year old daughter could do it with a little direction...

You got a good deal...looks nice

Well done. Glad it worked out and a forum member could make use of them

If when sitting in traffic you rev the engine some, up to 2500 rpm's or so, does the problem go away for a minute? I believe you are running too much pressure on your fuel system and flooding the engine out...

I would be surprised if you got six months with the amount of air you're using right now but you might...

The color of his fuel may or may not be a problem. He is in a completely different market without all of our blends. For that matter the tanks they pump from could be rusted tinting all the gas pumped from them... Zed Head gave you good advise, take it or leave it

If your yellow is catalyzed paint then you should be able to use lacquer thinner to clean up any areas that leak out, but I don't know if that will completely do it. It does tend to stain some. Eastwood would be my choice too

When your desiccant gets saturated throw them in the oven on a cookie sheet on low for a couple of hours to dry them out

Love it. You're doing everything right from the looks of it. Happy New Year...
