Carb vs EFI on an L Series Datsun 1600 - Dyno Test

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

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!
