HI,
Im new here. Im picking up 2 1971 Datsun wagons for $600 here, 1 runs and the other is a parts car. What I would like to know what engine swaps besides the usual nissan engine swaps are out there such as, has anyone swapped a Ford 2300 into a 510??? and are there any others out there, like a web page where there is a good list of what other possible engines would work well in the 510. Im looking for info on 4cyl to 6cyl because of the size and weight issues involved
Thanks
Max
Ford 2300 in a Datsun 510 engine swap?
Re: (Mr1der)
I know the one of them is running, but not sure if the parts car has a motor or not. Kind of what im planning is keeping the running one stock and mod the parts car.

Re: (Mr1der)
so, you have any suggestions on what motor to get and if there are lots of parts for it?? For example, how about the L20B, can you put the KA24E/DE head on a L20B? Or just go with the KA24e/DE by itself? or any othe suggestion on what engine to use. Im wanting mainly a car the will be streetable, but be able to use it racing on a road type course.

you CAN put the E head on the L series block...which isn't bad at all...you gain 4 more valves.
an SR20DET isn't a bad choice...good aftermarket...hell, stock power from it isn't bad at all to begin with....there's more than one company that supplies motor mounts and other parts needed for the swap.

McKinney is a good place for such parts.
