I'm glad to see that you made the jump. As far as the solex set up, I have it on mine and they are quirky, I certainly love the power and sound but they are not problem free. If it runs good with th

Hi Daniel; I'm either going to have Mike Young do the work, or the pervious owner will do the work...(he works at a local Datsun shop and I trust he'll take good care of the car.) I'll be asking all

My congrats also! As for the solex setup, don't install it right away. I recommend that you allow me to install it on my car and get the kinks out of it for a few years. Fred ;> Hello, Well, congratu

I agree. Solexes are highly overated for the street. For the $1500 or more you can get better performance gains in other places such as some head work and a cam. And most aren't probably set up corr

That's the cam Dan. I didn't say they are useless, just overated or maybe the SUs are underated. I still stand by what I said and that the clams spent for the Solexes could be better spent on other m

I totally agree, the SUs are underated. As Mike points out, you can eke out some pretty good performance with a few mods. I did some porting/polishing to my head and intake manifold, and some work on

You need to think about how you will use the car, and how you like to drive. Solex's are great, but really in their element at high revs, and not real smooth on start ups and tooling around town. Gr

I have driven both. IMO, the induction sound and high end oomph are the extra work, finickiness and poor gas mileage. A higher (1600) rear end definitely helps, too. None of these are a deterrent to
