Old School meets New School Ways Pt. II

 

 

 

After some slight set backs with piston fitment (the block needed over sized pistons due to the cylinder walls already over the max P to W clearance) we picked up some .020″ pistons and pressed forward.  This L20B I have to say I had a joy in building.  It came out better than I expected and is quite clean and industrial looking with the color scheme I gave it.  For this Datsun 510 I think this will be a great show piece for the customer.  I thoroughly enjoyed building a different outfit for a change.  I love building VG30s but every now and then a little change up is good.
