What is that light blue structure in front of the radiator in the Datsun 240 Z!?

It's the air cleaner housing. IIRC, Datsun/Nissan moved it from the side of the engine to in front of the radiator when they added the turbocharger.

Hi Bill,

can you remember which kit this engine is from? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Rico

Sure thing! It's a Model Car World engine and B-N-L transmission with a whole lot of custom work. This is what it looked like at first:

I cut off the molded-in parts and carved new details on the right side of the block, remade the oil pain, and replaced the parts I removed with a combination of scratchbuilt and kitbashed items.
