      How bout this? Custom twin cam head for the Datsun's L series, based off of a Honda K series head.

      This is all Tony D’s fault:) Hi everyone. Some of you know me from my DIY EFI manifold project http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/63445-making-my-own-efi-intake-the-first-casting/ Well now I’m tackling a DOHC head. Some history: I get a PM from Tony D in September of 2012 about the Goerz-Paeco DOHC ...

        My friends 2jz Miata. He hasn't updated it yet. Don't fall into my troll trap there at the end. I'm trying to ruffle feathers and then post an updated photo. He's dropping it off at the tuner on Saturday. This is his 3rd motor, doesn't want to blow another one up. This car has been in his ownership since we were in high school, pretty cool how far it's come.

        Build Threads - 2jz Miata build thread - I ran into this while searching for a car. Is extremely interesting how easy the 2jz fits right in with little hassle. requires registration. link removed.

            the thing that was really impressive to me was that the sand casting mold was printed with a 3d printer. does anyone have a dohc m20 racing dynamics head we can make a copy of?

                    I've mentioned this build before on my own e30 build thread, but it's more appropriate here.

                    Here's my '69 Alfa Spider race car build. Fair bit of titanium fabrication went into it.

                      ^ Great work! That is beautiful.

                      As for the 2jz Miata up above, it's now going to be a lsx Miata on nitrous. He blew it up again, and finally realized he was running low impedence injectors on an ECM setup for high impedence. :headdesk:

                      Oh well.

                                OK, I found this one a bit ago and have spent the last 40 minutes going over it.

                                Sandy-victim Bentley Continental GT going together for less $ than what I have in my 2002. If you like wiring harness porn, this one's for you.
