Some nice looking bits there Brad! Looking forward to seeing the car..... looking for a 'panel dood' myself at some stage, if only to make space in the garage for some more crap to trip over. Flattered to be recommended trader on the same line as Datsport :oops:

Keep the pictures coming.

Cheers mate, Neil.

Don't konw Neil, but I reackon you could fit at least another car in your garage. :)

As for traders I will only list the ones where there have been no problems. It makes it easier for everyone else.

Cheers Brad

Nice work there dude. 8)
Always nice to see someone "not" going the SR/FJ/import route. :thumbsup:
I'll be getting the same bottom end combo as yourself for my project.
bit more torque without sacrificing to much rpm :wink:

Your 1600 looks very straight.
what colour are you getting ?

top job Yellowdat.

Cheers Fella! Yeah I have spent alot of time on the body (9 months in fact). Jim has also spent many hours getting the panels as straight as possible (He's the old school type of panel beater and can repair and tap up just about anything. To bad their arn't many of these guys around any more).

It will be bright white 2 pak. I look at it why do a SR conversion on a car with a tired body. I would rather sink all my cash in the shell and do any sort of conversion later on. That way the car will last another 30 years.

I just noticed the specs on the cam :!:
I take it that you have checked the valve to piston clearance.
Just noticed the pistons do not appear to have valve reliefs.

72 degree works cams have a valve lift around the 0.480 mark.( brainfade)
the 0.535 is the lift for a 76 cam.
