Yeah, I saw that in my google searches. Has anyone actually gone this route? I can't imagine it's that similar to the car version when it comes to certain bits.

Anyone out there in the lower 48 selling an A15? The one on my 210 (nice wristwatch tan spot, eh?) is continuing to eat itself and I think I'd rather just buy a used engine than pay to have the current one rebuilt.

Anybody got one for sale? I'll throw her into the back of my Volvo and take it off your hands :D The closer you are to WI, the better.

And at least one message-board-ignorant American, it seems

Can I get a mod to merge the 2 threads?

Ad says it all. I just threw that price out there, no real idea of what I'll get it before it.

Thanks for the help :) I've had the metal gasket, 9+1 GX head bolts, lifters, cam, and header+gasket picked out for a while now.

So, you've used this place before? Happy with the customer service? Ive' got a thread going at the Classic Datsun section of nissanforums about them...looking for people's experiences on customer service, etc.

If you go to the 'other' Datsun forum, you'll see I've got a thread going about Nismoparts ;)

Part of my issue with them is that their site is jank as can be, and they don't mention what parts are meant to fit what A-series motor. That nismoparts site is part of why I started this thread...I think most of that stuff they have listed is meant for A12s, and I don't have one. I'm not sure if all that will fit.

I'm just paranoid ;)

Is there any company out there doing cams and lifters for the A-series motors? Or am I best off going for a custom grind at a shop? I'm thinking of getting a twin-carb setup going, but I might just skip it and just run a 32/36 and the stock cam if I can't find anything.

This engine is due for a rebuild anyway...metal in the drained oil :( Which is why I've been trying to hunt down stuff like upgraded head gasket stuff, cam, etc. If I can handle that while it's being rebuilt, that'd be good.

One more thing: headers. Swappable between the A-series mills? Any recommendations on a good A-series header?
