Re: 1200 conversion

[Cleary Signs]

Title: 1200 conversion

James, If you use a stumpy box the conversion is easier, just need to weld in a 1200 auto tunnel, and use the original 1200 auto mounts, if you use a CA box you still need at least the auto tunnel, but have to open up and widen the back of the tunnel near the seats, as the CA box has a large rectangle shifter, and weld in a new shifter hole. If had to do the conversion again, i would probably use a stumpy (Andrew hasn't had and problems with his box since it was built properly) The 1200 auto tunnels are huge and are only spot welded in. as for a radiator, i'm using a early VN (brass tank) radiator 2 holes in the rail for the positioning lugs and brackets to the support panel.   Heath. ----- Original Message ----- From: James Marmont To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 7:26 AM Subject: RE: 1200 conversion Hi Ron thanx for the email ingleburn isnt too far from manai. i would be very interested to talk to you more about this. i have a quote at home from dat speed that itemises every thing for the conversion, but he has tried to slug me for some things(i know i have been around racing teams for years) the main work involves cutting out the tancmission tunnel and welding in a 120y one, also modifying xmember to suit engine mounts and modifying radiator mount. any furthe info would be much appreciated. james -----Original Message----- From: Ron Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 14 November 2001 8:04 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 1200 conversion Hay James  I an in Sydney my name is Ron  my company is Ingleburn Steering  we have done many conversions although not CA18 into dato before but I am shore we could do the job for you  .I am a dato lover ,  check out my Ute at Sydney datsun club site .regards RON  [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: James Marmont To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2001 8:52 AM Subject: 1200 conversion hi all i want to put a ca18det into my 1200 ute. can anyone tell me who can do this conversion in sydney( pref.sth ) besides datspeed. any info would be geat. also anyone needing original 1200 front end bits let me know --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
