Carb vs EFI on an L Series Datsun 1600 - Dyno Test
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Alan, Woody and Tim get their Datsun 1600 onto the dyno for some experimentation. How will changing from a points ignition system to coil packs effect power? What about changing to EFI using some motorbike throttle bodies? Today we find out on The Skid Factory.

Is it just me or has Turbo Yoda become a much better presenter this year?

100% percent he has; not only that-- his personality is coming through even on the small appearances he has on the main MCM channel. He is a natural.

Seriously though, every time someone made a Datsun=Nissan joke I was offended on behalf of the 510 1600 and S30. It's nice to see reparations have finally been made 😏

Mighty Car Mods Sweet car but the soul is gone now ! Nothing sounds better than Weber carbs If you need efi then make a swap instead of destroying that wonderfull engine
And just when I thought this show couldn't get any better......

I'm still amazed at how they haven't brought this channel past the 1M subs mark yet. This is some proper use-able info in here
Boys, this is absolutely the peak of what all of the MCM channels have put out. I’ve been waiting years to see a fully comprehensive video showing what you actually need to go EFI and have ACTUAL LOAD BEARING STEADY STATE SPARK ADVANCE TUNING. My life is much better now. Cheers to you guys!

Loving ya work Woody. Nice smooth scenes and narration! Alan your on a new level on the camera. Had me in stitches
Yet another winner guys, all done in stages to document improvements I love it!
Thank you Yoda, Tim and Woody. One of my first cars was a 510. I loved it and this bought back many memories. Funny thing is, the 510 only had about 100hp and my current has 400hp yet the 510 was so much fun.
The skid factory is great. It's like a different flavor of MCM ice cream :)
I wanted a Datsun 1600 when I was younger, so I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Also, seeing the work done and the results of the EFI modification was awesome!

the fact ur making a video about L series engines and the efi vs carb debate for them in 2018 makes me love this channel and stay subbed. never forget good engines like these.
My first (legal) car was a Datsun 1600. I fitted some KYB gas shocks and a Pioneer radio/cassette player and drove from Melbourne to Queensland a week after I got my licence in 1977. Fond memories!
I've always been really curious to see exactly this scenario. Legendary!
Without doubt the best video I have seen and enjoyed on KZread this year. Answered lots of my questions abou EFi on old Dattos. keep up the great work .
Having a “Siamese port” engine means it shares one port for two cylinders, not that the intake and exhaust are on the same side of the head.

Wow, grew up with my dad tuning his 510's. That's awesome you're a fan al! I love you that much more now
What a cool setup, the combined years of experience made it look easy.
Great to see you going from strength to strength Tim! Still love the yellow 2 door ;) as soon as I saw the plates I realized Mick will never shake the P510 bug. Thanks so much for getting some old school Datto magic on the channel Al & Woody. Keep up the great work!!!
This was epic, great idea with the comparison, awesome little Datsun what more could you ask for, more of this please
Al has the greatest smile. The joy on his face is just genuine.
Watching those injectors with the throttle plates open is pretty sweet
Truly one of the best cars shows on the web. Keep it up.
My first car was a dato 1600 I built it for 2 years during my apprenticeship then it was a write off 1 month after getting my license. There such cool cars and wish I had mine still. Such a great episode guys good shit
So cool. Loved the process. Loved the funny bits with the laptop and Al breaking the strut top cover.... LOL
Ahhh, memories. My first ride was a Datsun 521 pickup. I drove that thing through 3 engines, 2 transmissions and 2 rear ends. My second ride was a 69 510 with factory racing suspension, high numerical position rear diff, Momo seats and steering wheel, SW Gauges, scca roll bar. There motor was a L16 with a L18 head and a single Weber 45. It was so fun to drive!
yesssss awesome episode, always curious to see stuff like this on the dyno to see real worl results.
Old school and New school merging together Love it Lads. My old Ford Cortina had the Spark-rite electronic ignition conversion in it,it made some difference with start up and running of the car but the main advantage was you didn't have to change points and condensers all the time.
Great video guys! A pleasure to watch =) - Taz.
Some of the best hot rodding I've ever seen. V8 parts, motorbike parts, custom parts. Sweetness
This was a fantastic episode!!
Another awesome vid!!!!! Plus props to Cleveland exhaust from a customer from back in the day.
This is like mighty car mods from 6 years ago. Love the vids mates
Loving the quality content by Turbo Yoda and Woody! Keep it up.
Y’all are pretty awesome when it comes to stuff like this. Great videos!
im so glad you two are making these video. that car is sweet. you two are very lucky to work on such amazing car. come on boys crank it you need to beet the other two people that's on this channel. i give it a year. good luck and i cant wait to see what comes next.
I have that CAS installed on my Z and Tim was of great help in helping me interface it to the Haltech. Tim is a stand up guy! Thank you for your help TIm =)
That’s a nice Datsun! Well done fellas!
I’m a current 2 door 510 owner restoration project . I love seeing them done !
I LOVE this show :) great attention to explaining and showing the more technical aspects.
now that was a gem of an episode. would love to see some supercharger work at some point.
Very cool to see a lil p510 on here congrats on the end result. Something I wish I had done to the many datto's i've had. Great work keep it up!
I just fell in love with this guy even more
i couldn't stop giggling at the mischievous turbo yoda's considerate and delicate handling of all the old parts that they replaced, thanks for another great episode guys

Glane haha i think it was intentionally shown just because we are used to marty or moog throwing it across the room. But yeah just watching this guy is funny af but in such a respectable way.
What a pristine little nugget! I would have loved a little spin around the block after, but i guess you can’t get everything... Great show guys, thanks.
Awesome, well done guys! such a cool little conversion
Love how clean the interior has been done. Not like most of your builds! 🤣 loved it boys. That Datto rocks
Looks like a awesome episode!
My first car was a 72 521pickup and my second was a 69 510 with a bunch of factory goodies. Both were so much fun!
i don't know why this just popped into my suggested videos but what a great episode with good data.
My grandpa had a 510 taxi down in Mexico. I remember him thrashing on that thing through the mountains. Wish I could find one now.
Mighty Datto! Haven't seen a 1600 in yonks, awesome!
Takes me back to my early 20 of skinned knuckles, text books, glovebox full of jets and chokes, late night Sunday tinkering and arse dyno testing on the way to work Monday. I loved my twin dcoe 45mm webers on cammed l20 s2 910 electronic ignition. nostalgia!
Al just went up even more in my book. Not that he needed too!! Excellent work lads this is exactly what I love to see.
just the kind of stages I wanted to see, awesome stuff
Very cool update. I had a 69' 510 2 door from new, was a great little car...
Skid Factory for the win. Great video gentlemen
Can't get enough of these videos guys, keep them coming. 👍
Nice work, very educative video. Greetings from Czech Republic:)
I love Alan being the host, I thought he was a really shy bloke but he can easily lead the show!
Giddy, excited Al is infectious!
This was an awesome episode!
Great video, keep them coming!
Well done again lads. Top video!
Love this kinda stuff. B.T.W my first car was a third share in a Datsun 120Y back in the early 80s and the thing just kept going. Also had an 1.8 bluebird for a short time. Great show. Thanks guys
This channel/show keeps getting better and better, Allen is getting more and more comfortable in front of the camera! Presenter material, haha. :D
Love this kind of content. Thanks guys.
Wicked awesome video guys. Keep it up.
Sick episode boys
Brings back some happy memories, good to see the old girl kicking on
Sweet vid guys love the datto!! Keep up the great work🖒🖒🖒
Awww, the feels... used to have an old Scorpion with exactly this type of setup on it -- N/A with twin 42mm Webers and Unifilter socks, went like a scalded cat with a few engine mods and sounded beastly.

the best.. mine was a rare 84 GL and I so regret selling it. Should have sold it off to the folks, they'd have kept it beastly and dad loved it, said it brought out the 'boy-racer' in him. =)
That bonnet strut is next level.
I am a simple man. I see Datsun I press thumbs up.
Nice one guys! I'm upgrading my 2l pinto to the same. Keep making videos forever. Kind regards.
Great video team.
Love it! Rekindles my desire to locate my first car again, a Datsun 620 pickup!!
Excellent vid guys👌
Great video guys on the progress from points and carb to full efi. Interesting to see. Maybe as a re-cap just a quick explanation of the power curves and how it improved with each different mod and how this translates to better road driving. As said, peak stats kw and nm are just one part of the story.
Dinner and Skid Factory. The perfect date.
Yeeeessss! I have been asking for this for a long time on Engine Masters but this is way more applicable to the engines I like anyway! Go Datsuns! Thank you smoking tire!
Very nice! Sounds so much better and will be a fair chunk more driveable too.
really good video guys, i dont know how many discussions there have been about carb vs throttle ; ok you didn't gain a bajillion KW at the rears but what you will gain is driveability.
for some reason this was a very satisfactory episode . i didn't even know that i like so much to see efi installed in an old car . this was such an efficient and clean mod. this is my car fetish now i guess.
Nice work guys!
Good to see the 'Hoff' in person.
She is a Gem i was wondering when Dato was gonna be part of the show awesome little beast perfect and Al never fails being himself :), keep up the great work guys!!!
That's Awesome Timmy Thanks mate
I kove this stuff so much. Thank you for making these videos!
Awesome, my first car was a 1980 B210 coupe, 2nd was a 81 B210 Hatch and 3rd 71 510 with L20B from a BBird, but was pretty beat up, fixed it and later swapped to a SR20DE (never went DET). Loved em all. Looking to do another 510 in future, and doing another SR20, but DET or a VG30DE. Awesome episode
I really enjoyed this. Thanks for the video.
Love videos like this. That datty looks great
Turbo sigma mags looking great all polished up.
Great video fellas!
I haven’t even watched and I love this already!!!!
I love this car. Always wanted one growing up.
Old school metal with modern management. Wonderful stuff
This was so damn cool. Loved it!
thank you so much for making this video it's awesome!
