Thought all you LBC owners would get a chuckle and/or a tinge of dread
from this study in automotive design contrasts. That's my '71 RWA
Midget and '02 Dodge Ram from 2 years ago.
I've owned the Midget for 12 years and am slowly restoring it between
glorious rides. My biggest project on this car is about to commence.
I recently (last month) purchased a Datsun 210 tranny on EBay and am
about to pull the engine to perform the transplantation ("Calling Dr.
Michael DeBakey").
Two questions (if anyone is inclined respond):
My engine has been running superbly, albiet a lower compression model
8:1 so not a lot of zip. I'd like to mildly upgrade it. No racing.
What are the most common upgrades to this 1275 engine?
Any tips from those who have done this?
Dave
'71 Midget
