Spark Plug, Compression, Gearing, and Power Feedback
moelk replied to Hardway's topic in Engine & Drivetrain
Questions: Are you sure the engine is bored at all, or could it be just a stock block with dished pistons? I have a bored N42 block + 1 mm flattop pistons and the late 240/260 E88 head. With bigger valves and a Schneider stage3 cam and triple 45s. I have my ignition timing at 16-17 at idle and it's shows 34-35 at 3000 rpms. Try to set the timing higher but listen for pinging. -
Rolled her out today to get some parts out of my tiny garage. Put the rear spoiler on with tape to get an ide of what it will look like (still needs some tweaking and to be painted).

Oem Euro front spoiler installed. Rear spoiler is next. (And yes I need to adress the leakage)
-
Got my Oem Euro front valence (predrilled with built in nuts for the Oem front spoiler) back from paint. Discovered that the Us valence and the Euro valence have different ways of mounting. Euro has built in nuts Us don't, or is it something that depends on what year it's made? Hope to get time to put the valence and spoiler on the car this week.

Yes they were expensive but the price was including shipping and import fees (I'm in Sweden) and on top of that the exchange rate sek to US dollar was in my favor. But still it's a lot of money. /Andreas

The spoiler will be painted like the tail light panel. Spoiler isent mounted yet.

Im looking at that airbox. Noticed any difference to how the engine performs with that box?
-
Looks great! Well done!
-
Thanks! Iv talked to Kats about it. I have looked along time for those 432 rev counters but when I finally track one down their not for sale. I would be able to reproduce them in plastic like the speedo plates (they are easier to make then the speedo plates) just by getting a very high resolution pic of the plate itself.

I've seen your solution and it's a great idea.
-
Hi! Im thinking of installing an airbox or an heat shield (haven't decided yet) on my Triple carb setup and wanted to see your solutions and what (if any) difference it made. //Andreas

But it has to be a pain in the ..... to clean or find that lost 10mm socket ; )
-
I'll take that under consideration ; )
-
Well, i can only look at your garages with envy. Mine is small cold and painted in some kind of "vomit green". But at least there's a Datsun and some parts in there : )
-
Hi. I still sell these speedo plates. You can contact me at Andreasboine79@gmail.com or SMS at 0703200965. //Andreas

Wunder if the tach needle workes like the speedometer needle? That you can adjust it by hand (when you have the needle out you can put it back a bit forward or back it off a bit to read faster or slower)? If the tach needle workes that way it would be easy to make a tachometer plate with the 0 rpm at 6 o'clock. It sure looks cool.

Tested my new metal replica Fairlady hood emblem. (Oem emblem to the right for comparison)
-
Merry Christmas from Sweden! //Andreas

New euro spec swaybars installed.
-
I need a harness bar like that. Does it mount in the existing holes behind the panels? And that mirror has been tempting me for awhile. Is it of good quality? I know it's quite expensive.
-
I'm going to try to mount mine with tape ?
