I say go all Mr. T on it - bust out the oxy/fuel torch and turn it into a cabbage-launching cow catcher!

Re: you guys are gonna hate me
I agree with you that you are getting shit-talked big time! It's kind of a ritual around here when some "newbie" (new around this website anyway) gets a 510 and immediately starts talking big about swapping in a super duper motor because the existing Datsun motor is not running so great, and obviously the single biggest problem with the car. Seeing as how you are still smiling, then don't worry about the shit-talk. Let's all focus on you making your car into a fun kicking machine, instead of it being a shit-talking machine.

Then you need another bag full of money to finish the swap.

I bought the car and saved it. Motor was good. Needed some brake lines and a starter. Easy fix.
