    That's the quintessential answer to this thread. Best advice and with pics to show how to go about the implementing it.

    Also, in case anyone is curious, that's a Datsun L16 engine. Good little motor, and looks great with side-drafts:

    It's borderline OT, but I think dressed out right it looks way better than a Pinto motor like you see fairly often in hot rods.

    I've been a Datsun guy for the past 8yrs or so, and I've toyed with dropping one in a hot-rod were it not for the negative stigma attached.

    Was just going to ask if that was a Datsun motor. They are great motors! My dad has an L20 in a '28 tudor.

    And I agree look and run way better than a Pinto.
