Current revision
The A12 engine of the Datsun 1200 features a modern lightweight cast-iron cylinder block. For an overview of all A-series engines see Block Comparison.
Contents |
Identification
A12 can be positively identified by looking for the engine Stamped ID.
See Main Article: Engine ID Mark
Ventilation
Under the block breather pipe, this steel mesh separates out the oil vapor from crankcase ventilation air.

Dimensions
A12 Deck Height is 189.1 mm. A10 engines are 10 mm shorter, and A14 is 15 mm taller. For more details see Block Comparison#Dimensions.
Length is the same for a A-series engine blocks.
Drain Plug
Buy at Bprojects 08931-30410 PLUG-TAPER THREAD WATER DRAIN * Fit all A-series block all years * Size: 1/4 inch NPT * Wrench Size: 14mm * Overall length: 18.5mm
Head Locating Dowels
Starting with A12 engine for B210 and including later 1200, dowels were used to locate the Cylinder Head.

Also see: Block Comparison
The block has ~2.5 liter coolant capacity.
Original Block

H50 casting, from 1974-1985(?) Datsun 1200
M79 casting, from 1985-1994 Datsun 1200
Overbore
The 1971-1973 A12, the one with the front distributor, can usually be bored to 76mm. This is the same as a stock A14 and will increase HP much more than going to high compression.
See main article: Bored And Stroked
Crankshafts
A12 uses a forged crankshaft, so it is plenty strong -- even for 8500 RPM use.
Stroke: 70mm (2.76 in.)
For more details and part numbers, see Crankshaft
Connecting Rods
Stock A-series rods are forged, and will last a lifetime in a stock or moderately upgraded performance engine. There is no need to use a heavier duty rod unless you are using a high boost turbo or supercharger, or revving higher than 8500 RPM.
See main article: Connecting Rods
Pistons
A12 engine came with dished pistons for approximately 9.0:1 compression ration. Standard bore size for the A12 or A13 block is 73mm/2.874". Pistons are cast. Nissan Competition does not recommend forged pistons for street use.
