Can good things come in small packages? We think they can - and indeed do! Over the years, Gary's Datsun 1200 coupe has evolved from a modified, fully chassis car into a formidable sport compact race car. How exactly do you cram so much performance into such a small package? Let's take a closer look at this little coupe and find out:) Make sure to watch till the end for the vroom vroom noises;) ..... 👇👇👇 ..... Liked this video?

GE head was designed by Yamaha BUT Toyota modified the GE head from Yamaha to make the GTE head which is a better flowing head .... So the GE head is NOT better than the GTE head.

I guess that this is a drag car, not a race car. a drag car where you keep throwing money at it until you are 'fastest'.

Mechanical fuel pumps don’t like to lift fuel. Why didn’t they mount the pump as to have the ability to use all the tanks fuel without trying to suck it up hill. Nice car but that part is not good.
@RRninja-jq6lp2 жыл бұрын
Fuel tank outlet is at the bottom, so it will have a siphon effect. Plus there are a bunch of cam with cam-driven pumps and they all work well
@rotory262 жыл бұрын
Any reputable MFI plumbing schematic will have the pump below the tank other wise you are pulling a vacuum which air rates the fuel. That is just waiting to bit you.
@sexyfacenation2 жыл бұрын
Heaps of cars run pumps from the cam shaft and have no issues
