Hi,
Sounds like a good project :)
Do you just have the 12a block, or do you have the rest of the ancillaries, gearbox etc?
just the block right now has 2 be rebuilt but this is my first time doing a project like this and just wanted 2 know what ill need 2 get the job done workin on a bit of a budget so taking it slow on the parts i need
Prob a welder!
I know a few guys who have done them. Mainly in their native countries of Africa.
Most important question though: have you pulled the 12A down and are the housings any good?
yeah housings all good just needa buy a gasket kit also prob street port it do all that at once that way i dont gata worry about it afterwerd would it really be any dif then a datsun 510 cuz ive seen 12a\'s in those all the time
