Re: Datsun 410 conversion
It is doable, but requires much engineering to do it.
It would be vastly easier to install a different four cylinder motor.

Your either dreaming or have Very Deep Pockets.
recessed firewall, Redesigned front suspension and steering, not to mention the motor will rip the shell to pieces.
also that extra weight will make the thing handle like a poo
look at the original engine bay of one of these. I highly doubt you will be able to shoehorn one in. there isnt much room north/south let alone east/west

Re: Datsun 410 conversion
As everyone said, doable but not easy.
You'll have issues with the sump as well as general size/balance issues.
If you were looking for something big for it you'd prob be better to go a small V8. Otherwise 4cyl or a rotary would be the go.
