After having a Colt C2 cammed 1.6L which had a really broad torque range (2500 to 6500), I came to appreciate what a really good torque range could do for a rally car. If one is rallying on roads that vary a lot in grade and speed, it is really important. You almost always have some usable torque when you need it.

Hi Guys,
If anybody is interested in the set-up it is still unused & for sale. I'm willing to post to the US at buyers cost.

Hi Derren, maybe put an advert in the classified here...Hardly any L-series pervs here in our little rally world but christ I spent enough time on those things back in the mid 80s....

Just curious since you're here: I read there's all sorts of stupid State-by-State "engineering" approvals needed when modding normal road cars, and it can be a nightmare or sometimes just a breeze, but what's the rules on swapping in motors into cars for rally down there?
I don't really understand the whole structure of how rally is run and what applies to Clubbie guys cars, State Championships and then ARC..

Please explain in 24 words or less.

I asked over there on Brindabella if people are allowed in sat a Datsun "so called 510" (Not the original, the later one with solid axle) if the rules allowed doing turrets and long link boxes like in a Group 4 Ford..
Zat allowed?
Can you cram in a SR20DE?
Or a FJ20 (I did a rebuild on one of those into a friends '69 510)?

If you're selling your L series stuff, what you going to do?]]> john vanlandingham Construction Zone Tue, 05 Feb 2013 13:02:07 -0600 https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?5,78169,78367#msg-78367 Re: For you guys who have ever been around the ol' L-series Datsuns.. https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?5,78169,78367#msg-78367 bttmotorsport Construction Zone Tue, 05 Feb 2013 08:54:36 -0600 https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?5,78169,78362#msg-78362 Re: For you guys who have ever been around the ol' L-series Datsuns.. https://www.rallyanarchy.com/phorum/read.php?5,78169,78362#msg-78362 If anybody is interested in the set-up it is still unused & for sale.
