Hmm just buy a whole other A12 that runs, when you start buying carbs and thermostats and all that jazz plus paying for a mechanic to do it all then you might as well just buy a running A12 that RUNS.
Otherwise stop pissing about and shove a sensor up the tail pipe or get the thing to a shop that will dyno it and know what they are doing, the good old rolling road is very useful. The great thing about a Datsun is that they are cheap to run, but they are only cheap when they work and they can get just as expensive as any other 4cyl modern engine when they need to be repaired by a professional.
old-tin get a link up for this thread that you're on about.
And if you disagree with the previous comments with such objection then explain and clarify the errors and let us know what your theory is behind why Isuzu, Subaru, Nissan and Datsun (Mazda, Mitsu?) find it necessary to preheat the inlet manifold either via water/coolant circuit and or exhaust platform.
Look forward to hearing about it all because it appears I too have had it all wrong.

you forgot holden, ford, audi, volkswagen, bmw ext and as i have said for emissions..... as i have been told some of the more moden cars are controld with a vave during for the cold european climates.
i don't know of 1 single petrol marine engine(what i'm most familiar with) that has heated manifold's because it is not necessary, even when the water temp is below 0deg c thay run vary well with no iced up jets.
now why did the holden grey motor have no heated manifold?
and the first of the hoden reds have no heated manifold?
then the hr 186 has a heated manifold?
you guest it emissions, thay even sold a alternative manifold and thermo housing to piss the emissions crap of why? because the heated manifold poorly affected prformence. what do you think happens when you have a 80deg c manifold in 40deg c ambiant? thats right you carn't get the optomum fuel-air charge in the chamber, in turn restricting engine input and out put. piss it of faten up the mixture presto better overal engine. the turbo boys don't run intercoolers just for looks and the n/a boys don't run cold air intakes because it's the done thing.
