Good point. If the Datsun 1200 ute is 1972 or newer, under Australia EPA it will require meeting the emission standards for the year of the engine (including catalytic converters, etc.) which carburetors will not meet.
Under CALIFORNIA law, any substitute engine requires meeting emissions of the newer engine.
Hence why the A14 is so popular as a "replacement" (not substitute) engine. Meanwhile in other places we enjoy our 2.4 liter 1200s.
