Mount brackets are different and further forward on the front dizzy ones so don't bolt in without modification, although can make it easy to move the engine backwards. Cams are different with the fuel pump in a different place, I run a late model cam in my early model engine and have to run an electric pump.

Hmmm. Maybe I will just hang on to it! Oh so it is possible to just run an electric with newer cam, does the fuel pump grind in the cam not interfere anywhere?
Not really planning on using it, may give it an overhaul one day and sell it off

Car all done and home. Runs now, timing was well out. Just need to try and get it to idle lower. Then will sort the back end out (not straight) to fit driveshaft.

Got a sport flow and also a coby

The y is at the paint shop! Will be back later this week. Parked next to a 1200 ute which has been freshly painted and runs an sr20

Excited for it to come back :burnout:

SO the Y has been painted! :mrgreen:

Supreme did the final coat.

Looks sweet. Will paint the window frames and between tail lights black like SSS then will put everything back together and off for re- reg!
