It is a Datsun A-series engine.

* If it has a mid-sump oil pan, it's likely an A14
* If it has a front-sump oil pan, it is an A12A or A14 or A15

From the picture it's difficult to tell, but it looks like an A12A with a 4-speed. Any one of these will fit a 1200 with simple flat plates to adapt the motor mounts.

thanks... its for sale locally cheap!!! might have to buy it just to save it from the scrap metal

On a pad by the dizzy, a little engine number, said what it is. the first 3 digits will say either A12, A13, A14 or A15. It could also be an A12A. Is definitely a late style A series engine.

It's an A series for sure. Post 1974 I'm thinking.

Looks to have a air pump or bracket on the front of the head.
Does that narrow it down further?

Perhaps someone with more knowledge could answer

A14 with H72 Cylinder Head.

the asking price is 350 for the entire setup as in the picture
