Draker Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Spent a lot of time making the stock block vent look good... But it was a wasted effort since it won't work with SU's. I remembered I had a spare that I had almost scrapped a few weeks ago. Good thing I kept it! Chopped it up and made this: 1 Quote Link to comment

Dash pad melted lol Haha, I always park in the shade.. or have the windshield shades up. Need to protect my precious dash pad. I've got a spare cluster print, I'll use that for melt testing. 1 Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Throw it in the oven at 150 for about 30 minutes. Should be a fair testing temperature Or just let it sit outside all summer Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Well, I don't know what the average temp inside a datsun is. I can get it to melt.. that's for sure. I think it's around 140 actually.. at least up here in the PNW. Different story down south. 2 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted March 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Thanks guys. I opened it up to install some anchors for plastic parts. They are stainless steel inserts. I heat them up and melted them into the part to get them seated. No post install pictures... Then I was able to screw the faceplate to the body. It's now ready to wire in.. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 I'm thinking about pulling the exhaust manifold and painting it. It's too ugly.. but I don't want to bake it in my oven. I might see if I can get the BBQ up to 400 degrees to cure the paint. 2 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 You can, get plenty charcoals and just add air like old school forging! Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 I've got a propane grill. Charcoal would get to 400 no prob! I think a gas grill can get there too. My grill just sucks.. lol Quote Link to comment
