The following list is from Bill's notes.
Materials required:
This kit uses the components from any Datsun 1200,210 or B210- they all
fit the same:
1/ transmission, either 4 or 5 speed. This includes trans, shifter,
throwout bearing and fork, speedometer cable, etc.
2/ Starter ring gear
3/ Clutch disk & pressure plate
4/ Starter motor that is 6 > from flange to tail, NOT one that is 7 =
long flange to tail.
5/ Clutch slave-to-fork rod w/ nut
6/ The flexible clutch line from the slave cylinder.
7/ The B-nut from the metal clutch hydraulic line.
Other equipment required:
1/ Driveshaft adapter yoke; Rivergate, Morrisservice or Mini Mania. They
all work the same; Rivergates is the least expensive and is of
excellent quality.
2/ Clutch slave cylinder: NAPA #United 37498
3/ Transmission rear seal (only if required): NAPA #11615CR
4/ Late model (1500) Midget shifter cover (gaiter)
Flywheel Preparation:
-I have a local shop who will do all of the following flywheel
modifications for $50.00. You need to provide all shipping and a Datsun
starter ring gear.
1/ Pull out the (3) locator pins from the Spridget pressure plate.
2/ Turn down the ring gear and flywheel to 9.466 1.002 diameter x .75
1.06 deep (Sketch xx)
3/ Turn front (clutch) side of flywheel flat
4/ Drill and tap (6) 5/16-24 unf holes through and (2) < diameter
holes .25 deep on a bolt circle of 8.490 to match holes in Datsun
pressure plate. (third < hole which matches offset pressure plate hole
is omitted).
5/ Tap the Datsun ring gear onto the modified Spridget flywheel using a
block of wood and a hammer.
Shifter Preparation:
1/ Saw shifter off to approximately 8 long. (Frank says 6")
2/ Drill and tap a 5/16-18 hole approximately 1 deep in the end.
3/ Screw a 2 long piece of 5/16-18 allthread in, thread 5/16-18
hexnut on and attach shifter knob.
4/ The original metal shifter cover will not allow the shifter to work
so I just use a 1500 Midget Gaiter (flexible cover).
NOTE I have successfully straightened out the Datsun shifter and cut it
down to fit in the stock early Spridget metal shift housing, but the
stock rubber gaiter will not work due to the extended throw of the
Datsun trans, but an MGB shift gaiter which is ribbed, works well.
You may have to grind away a bit of the upper left and lower right side
of the shifter hole, make it look like an egg and put in the MGB rubber
gaiter and it looks stock.
