laugh.gif i was hoping the Weld wheels would take away the cuteness squint.gif

^ nothing will ever take that away!

You've made a bit of improvement from the stock 69bhp @ 7000rpm thumbsup.gif

This makes me feel bad about all of the 120Y's that i've used as bush bashers ph34r.gif

Normally, when I see a Datsun 120Y, I do ask 120WHY but this time I ask... why not!

I'm only allowed a maximum of 2.3L for street use biggrin.gif
I looked at buying your wheels a while back. I have Commodore pattern with ford brakes, but no way could i fit your rear wheels under my gaurds without major surgery.


Car weighs in at 920Kg right? 2300cc x 1.2(forced induction penalty) and then divide the capacity by 3 to get the minimum kilograms the car must weigh or have they changed the rules?

Must have been fun modifying that head for use on a 78mm bore from 86/87.

Nice work on the stroker, 25 crank? Last time I checked 26 crank with pistons/rods gives you 2.4

Either way love it.

Original weight is 835kg and multiply by 2.75 for forced induction which equals 2296cc.

Engines aren't my thing, but by memory the bores are a touch over 83mm and the head had alot of work done on it. It was at the builder for over 6 months. Don't know if it will work until i turn the key thumbsup.gif

Some updated pics below of the diff sitting in to work out the position on the springs.

Stock crank with wider bore pistons would for for an RB22, not everybody needs a stroker.

However, I would be worried with the valves hitting the bores cause there is going to be bugger all real estate between the valve and the deck...
