The whole point is to respond to the help, let them know you read it, and do what they said! Or go to a mechanic... Datsun motors are very simple especially the 4 cylinders. Good luck!
It is further away then it looks in that photo. But I also check my oil and water everyday! I think this setup will last me another month or so until I get the frame straightened out and fit a oem radiator back in.... If there is more clearance issues then, I'll have to make adjustments !
My motor will go bad from my radiator hose bursting? Would it not overheat first? Just instant rip and then shot motor?
I think once I fit a oem radiator back onto the truck I'll worry about getting a new inlet. The alternator can't move much closer because I haven't ground down the lower mount for more adjustment... There's not much play, it's not ideal but it works
Mike it's not the inlet that is the issue.... It's because I'm using a radiator out of a different vehicle... And the frame is bent to shit so I cannot even get a oem radiator to fit.... The hose is close to the fan blade off the alternator. But it doesn't touch
