Why not? Your 620 -- light as it is -- would still weigh 600 lbs more than the Datsun 1200 ute in the photo ...

is that true 13.00 sec quarter mile with a NA L20B?
Modified L20B ... and that's in a 1200. Your 620 probably weighs close to twice as much as a 1200, so performance would be half as much

it all depends on the car.

you have a ute (or truck - whatever) so traction will be an issue.

in the land of 1000hp GTRs and 9sec hondas / RXs, even a 14sec quarter seems slow. it seems people have forgotten just what kind of trouble that 'just' a 13sec car can get you into.

in something as traction-less as a flatbed with enough power to run a 13sec, you're gonna have trouble running a 14sec quarter. power is one thing, traction is something else entirely.

I was thinking about puttin in a naps Z20, in my 71 1200, instead of a L series, only cause the Z series has had more mods and less miles. I tried test fitting it and i am having oil pan/crossmember issues, i was told that a oil pan from a car might work, i took this motor from a 81 720 pickup, also which gearbox should i use i have a 5 spd from a z series, or a 5spd from a ka series, sorry i keep asking these questions im just new to the datsun scene, any info would be great GreaseMonky81@aol.com


i remember something about being able to use a stanza front end under the datto 1200, coz i know the 180B 'just' doesn't line up (but goes into a 120Y easy enough) from people on here.

maybe just make your own sump. really, it's not as hard as people make out if you have access to an angle grinder and a mig.

I'm with L18_b110, and I'm sure i'll agree with him even more once i get the L20b in my ute going.
I got into the L series mainly because a mate of a mate had all the L series running gear out of a 1200 ute for sale, and it was cheap. It didn't end up being anything like a bolt in conversion, but still, all the parts were there (except the motor had a blown head gasket, and the bores had rusted out, so i got another engine in good nick for it)
