L16

Same as Datsun 510. L16 started 1969-1/2. All 1968 521 had J13 engine, as well as early 1969.

To fit the L16 drivetrain Datsun made these changes:

• changed motor mounts
• changed transmission mount
• changed 3rd frame crossmember
• smaller, simpler idler arm

Early 521: the J13 sheet metal for the radiator is easy to remove and allows you to drop L-series engine into, it even has the holes for the L series radiator install. Engine mount brackets and isolators differ as does rear tranmission mount bracket. These brackets bolt to the frame.
