Yes ,Silvia and R32 Skyline were 71C boxes, compared with a 71B box everything was bigger and stronger.
Seems to have a shorter throw also.

Some slow progress on the EFI conversion, plagued by a few niggly issues and guys doing the work for me being busy as well
71C conversion with rebuilt box
New driveshaft
EFI fuel system, external pump in the end was just far easier
PWR radiator
Coil on plug set up
Haltech ECU
Z story stainless headers and full exhaust
Throttle cable conversion & Jenvey throttles
Plenty of small things along the way
Coil overs, Cam and cert to go now. I should have just thrown an LS in it
I have electronic power steering kit to go in it as well but am on the fence with it
Looking forward to summer nonetheless

EFI Hardware but it's given nothing but troubles with the Haltech.
This is the next option should be here this week

If you are on the fence with the power steer, and you don't need it for medical reasons, don't do it.
The charm of these old school cars is their road feel, directness e.tc. In my view it should feel like a 70's sports car,
not a Lexus..

Oh, I also have the EFI hardware unit, but I guess I'll find out in a few weeks how it goes.SR240Z wrote: ↑Tue Sep 12, 2023 10:09 pm EFI Hardware but it's given nothing but troubles with the Haltech.

I'm only using for cam timing, not crank timing.
