Rather than "piston" swap, I was talking about "piston engine" swap. There are Datsun 1200s with non-rotary Mazda engines in our Photo Album.

I doubt if anyone has bolted a Mazda engine to the 1200 gearbox. But you never know ... it is likely possible. In the old days we used to put Oldsmobile engines in front of Ford transmissions, etc. and racers are still bolting large Chrysler Hemis to small Chevrolet transmissions.

it is Piston engine from 323. 1324cc 4cyl. can it b fitted n a 1220 GB by some plate? has anyone done it or atleast know the mazda engine?
and ddgonzal says that engine swap has been done too, can u give me rfernce?

Yes. Do you mean a 13B rotary engine, or a 1.3 piston engine? Either way it can be fitted. Both swaps have been done.

Unknown. The gearbox is too small for a 13B engine. It would probably survive behind a 1.3 piston engine, but wouldn't you have to machine an adapter plate or possibly the transmission shaft to make this work?

can a mazda 1324cc 1.3 B carby from older 323 b fitted in 1200 bay and b bolted on datto 4sp GB?
if its possible then what will it take to get it in and work with the GB?
cant have access to nissan 1.6 engines so have to use whats available.
