Datsun 910 Project, EFI conversion advice?

Post by Bluebird910 »

I have a Datsun 910 that I'm working on, it has the L20B engine. The carburetor has been causing issues, so it's a good excuse to convert to EFI.
I was thinking that I could get a second-hand manifold from a more recent nissan, but I'm not sure what would fit. SR20? maybe a CA18? I have no idea.
Any advice?

L18E has a manifold that will fit, I think datsunboy is using one with a CA18 computer and Nistune. Or you could buy those sweet throttle bodies that go onto Weber style manifolds if you have lots of $$$

L18e manifolds wont fit l20b unless you drill new manifold studs and drill slots in the inlet ports for injectors,

IMO a good set of twin su carbs are a great upgrade without going all out, start and run awsome and are reasonably cheep, i know it's not injection but its an option

Hi - you could always try an LD20 diesel manifold - see pic below - mine splits at the u turn so you could run a custom plenum on top or use the whole thing with a throttle body mounted to the front.

heaps of room for injector bosses and fuel rail etc - it may not bolt straight up to head but would be very close - they came out in some diesel vanettes largos and serenas etc aswell

Should, just needs an air cleaner for it
