Does anyone know the part number of the A14 Cam thrust plate? The little saddle shaped plate the retains the camshaft at the front of the block.

"Fasten the Vice-Grips then hammer the pipe out" Hammer where? You mean like back and forth, using the Vice grips as a handle?

Anyone know a good way to remove the lower water pipe from the block? The one that comes off the water pump to the lower radiator outlet.

I believe that's just a dust shield...

So as far as you know, there is only one plate? Not different ones of varying thickness?

DD wrote: "The 56A is 3.5 mm shorter and so designed to use a 3.5 mm Engine Plate. But because the A14 flywheel is thicker than A12 flywheel, Datsun created a shorter Release Bearing carrier to make up the difference."
The Tech Wiki however, shows a 5mm thick plate. Which plates came on which combos? I'm building an A14 with a 60A Gearbox, the tech says I need the short carrier and engine plate, but which plate?

Damn! Where was this when I was rebuilding my Aussie 1275 GT Mini! I spent more than this on refurbishing my VH44!

Excellent! Thanks DD! Add: I just looked at a rear wheel stud ( all I've got to look at just now) The shank isn't splined and is 12.5mm in diameter. Those longer studs are splined and 12.9mm in diameter. Is that consistent with a standard 1200 front stud?
