If you had spelled carbureated correctly in your tittle, you may have been able to pull up the correct thread at the bottom of the page for reference.

Some of the conversion will depend on what carb you plan on running and whether the 210 had an FI or carb based fuel system. If going with a Holley, find a Jay-Tech intake mani, if going sidedraft, RB makes UIMs that will bolt to the LIM, but I'm not sure if it will mate to the S5 LIM. You may need to find an earlier version. Any 81-85 dizzy will work.

Its actually very simple. I went Holley 600cfm w/ a Jaytech intake on an s5 but Racing Beat's intake will work just as good. Not sure how you plan on mounting it in the Datsun so the 1st gen front cover may be needed. Also a 1st gen dizzy and FMOC will be needed. Everything else is cake. FPR, Fuel pump ,etc. Good luck!
