slownrusty Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Big FJ lover here!! I imported three brand new NOS engines from Japan a few years ago and installed one with a bunch of rare TODA bits (304 cams, forged pistons flywheel etc) into my 720 Datsun Ute! Looking forward to this build and thread. Regards - Yasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollum Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 FJ's are definitely cool in my book, wish they were more available on this side of the globe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMC raceengines Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Well just finished the crank. It needed lots of work as i found a crack in it, so i welded it up and spent some time making it race ready come up a treat , also found a crack in the head ... So i replaced it and ported it the same as the old head as it had made great hp before , there is a lot of work to go but its getting there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xnke Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) Peter, you said you welded a crack in a race crank...that doesn't seem like good practice to me. If I was going to be pushing an engine to the limits, the crank is the one place I'd cull hardest on. I know that proper procedure can yield a strong product, but knowing that there is a welded up crack in the crankshaft at 10,000RPM would just give me the heebie-jeebies, ya know? Are FJ cranks THAT hard to get? And by the way...that oil pan is just gorgeous after the plating. We'll have to hear this thing run when it's done!

PMC raceengines Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 Yep i hear you , but just about every crank is cracked in the same spot , i have fixed about 5 of them so far and all have lived long hard life in race cars , so i think it will be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xlr8r Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Where to the cranks commonly crack? I'm going to buying an FJ next week & I guess I better inspect the crank before I rev the snot out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
