That looks like a really sweet build.
What cam are you putting in there to match up with that gorgeous head job? (minds out of the gutters please gents)

ideola every time you post you make me want to get a 924 with the 2.0l, especially since they're non-interference and parts seem cheaper.

OHHHHH YAAAAA! Love Webers. I've tuned/built dozens of triple Weber DCOE setups for Datsuns. What a magnificant sound. Crack open those throttle plates and lets have a look all the way to the valves!!!
With a good set of dcoe's, you could hear the car coming as well as going.

Cool project.

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure all 924's with the 2.0 engine came with CIS.

I thought only the 931 2.0 engine was interference?

2.0l NA motor should be non-interference and the Turbo motor due to the head design is interference, at least that's my understanding with 924's pre 944 engine.
