The 1980-1982 A13 used the same block as the A12 and same stroke of 70 mm, but with a 76 mm bore for a slight increase in displacement to 1270cc. Aside from powering Datsun cars, this engine was used as the base for TS Cup racing and a number of Formula Pacific & Formula 3 race engines.

Overview

Nissan produce two different A13 engines. The newer A13 came in 1980 as an A12-derived engine.

A13 (1980)

The 1980-1982 A13 used the same block as the A12 and same stroke of 70 mm, but with a 76 mm bore for a slight increase in displacement to 1270cc. Aside from powering Datsun cars, this engine was used as the base for TS Cup racing and a number of Formula Pacific & Formula 3 race engines

Applications:

A13 Racing Engines

Prior to 1980, TS racing cars (1300cc class) used an A12 engine bored out to just under 1300cc.

1300cc racing engines from 1970 were a bored-out A12, with the block stamped as 'A12', although racing engines starting in 1980 preferred the new A13 block.
