Review: Good resource - Great references in this book. Alot of the race parts they talk about are no longer in production so a bit of a bummer. I bought this book along with the rebuild book by the same company. Great book set.
Review: A Great book for Datsun lovers! - How To Modify Your Nissan/Datsun OHC Engine was recommended to me when I my husband and I bought my 1968 510 Datsun SCCA race car. The instructions for performing various disassembly/assembly tasks are clear, with a complete parts break-out for every task covered. This is the only Datsun modification book we own, and I can't imagine needing any other one.

Great book for beginner mods and lots of wild weber or su setup info but very light on EFI stuff. Still very recommended for lots of little tails and tricks.
