So I have two motors and three valve covers for my SR20DET motor that I want to put in the first Datsun Roadster. I am excited about getting this engine just right. It’s a red top S13 and I want to do something a little different and special to it.

So the first step is paint removal. I still don’t have a compressor to power my soda blaster, , so I have to do it the old fashioned way. Lots of time stripping and sanding, trying to remove the paint. It’s been slow going, but it is looking good. I have another hour of work to do in order to get it completely ready for paint. I hope what I have planned works out good.
