One Saturday, I and a couple of friends visited the Datsun dealer in Lawton. I ended up buying a 1600 roadster.; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00071.html (7,691 bytes)
11. Big cams. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 12:29:13 -0700 (PDT); I am a fan of big camshafts. By "big cams", I mean duration and overlap as well as lift. There are lots of misconceptions about the role of a camshaft in performance. The purpose of a camshaft is, of; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00081.html (7,751 bytes)
12. Carburetion. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 12:59:06 -0700 (PDT); Carburetion is my acknowledged area of expertise. I ran a carburetor rebuilding shop for many years. Carburetion, like camshafts, is seldom well understood by the layman.

An engine doesn't know what it says on the valve covers. Engine performance is dependent on the same constants and variables no matter who or; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00083.html (7,061 bytes)
14. Re: Carburetion. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 14:23:16 -0700 (PDT); Yes, the has SU has variable venturi size. The needle is there to change the metering jet size as the venturi size changes (thus maintaining the same ratio at different openings). In this way, the va; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00085.html (9,303 bytes)
15. Re: Carburetion. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 14:31:55 -0700 (PDT); I forgot to answer one part of your question, I think. In a fixed venturi carb, as I stated, the jets stay the same (not counting power boosters). The ratio stays roughly the same at different thrott; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00086.html (7,802 bytes)

17. Re: Carburetion. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 19:22:51 -0700 (PDT); I have observed the same thing in SUs. That is why the term "constant velocity" is somewhat of a misnomer. One of the most critical constants in wet flow testing is the pressure drop in the air colum; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00091.html (7,855 bytes)
18. Correction. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2006 20:33:27 -0700 (PDT); Unfortunately CRS is cotching up with me. In my last post I talked about one LB of pressure drop. Of course, I should have said one INCH instead. Old age is creeping up on me. Marcus A.

If you want flexibility and streetability, use SUs. or some variant. Marcus A. Pryor For a new a; /html/datsun-roadsters/2006-06/msg00094.html (7,266 bytes)
20. Re: Carburetion. (score: 1): Author: "Marcus A. Pryor" <banshee16@starband.net>; Date: Wed, 7 Jun 2006 10:15:10 -0700 (PDT); I chose the 40mm carbs for the following reason. It involves what happens with a large overlap cam.
