yum... 1200 candy

Hello, Yes I am selling my collection of Datsun 1200 and A-series parts. [I don't love EBay, but I have few options for marketing.]

In my tubular chassis B14 Nissan 200SX I am still running the 1237cc A12 engines from my Datsun 1200. Our rules here allow any of Datsun/Nissan engines under 1900cc to be in any of the Datsun/Nissan bodies. Last year we moved our US Championship to a track that is 4 miles with hills and three long straights where we reach top speed in 5th gear. The larger 1600cc and 1800cc engines use an air restrictor, but their torque is still hard to regulate. This year I was the only "little" engine (under 1400) to finish in the (very competitive) top 10.

Some of my parts are going to Spain, Portugal, New Zealand, Australia, Japan and South America. Some are too large and the postage makes them too expensive to ship overseas. I may have to disassemble the unsold very "high end" engines and sell them as "cylinder head" kits. Then I'll sell the camshafts and tool steel lifters as kits and then the pistons and Carillo rods as kits.

I do have some silly little parts too. I have bushings if you want to bush the stock rockers, and I have unfinished stock rockers with bushing in them. I have 1000s of new, slightly used chrome moly three piece pushrods. For pushrods I need to know the length you need, which changes with rockers, cam regrind and milling on the cylinder and block.

Over the years I have send many of the A12A rods to Australia & New Zealand. Short rods with 19mm pin. I have some more sets here to sell.

I have requests from racers in Portugal for the dogleg 5-speed F5C56A transmissions. They want to buy broken gearboxes, because core parts are so rare their and they manufacture dog gear kits to repair dogleg gearsets.

Once I get through sorting the A-series engine parts, I will look at the car and chassis parts I have.

Contact me if there is something you need. Or if you have any ideas for marketing, I appreciate your input. Thank you. Peter

Competition oil pump with inlet/outlet for oil cooler and fittings, unassembled, with new Datsun competition gasket. $175 USD.

OK guys if you need A series parts Peter is the man, beyond having tons of parts he has knowledge of all the little bits of info that make an A series work.

Watching a couple of things

And I'll be in CA soon so local shipping only :)

Competition oil pump? Is that a Nissan part number or a modified standard part? Are they still available as a new unit? What makes it Competition, pressure? Volume? Also, who in Portugal make Dog gear kits for the 56 5 speed?!!

The comp oil pump usta was available from the Nissan racing catalog.
It features higher output (psi & volume) and built-in oil cooler ports.
Bolts right on in place of the stock pump.

It is high volume due to a longer rotor from the L16 engine. See details and photos here: Datsun1200 Tech: Competition Oil Pump

Comp Pump [US Datsun/Nissan Motorsports Catalog] http://datsun1200.com/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=5927

15010-25720. Flow rate is 7.9 GPM at 4000 RPM. Over 90 PSI compensates for increased bearing clearance and/or the addition of an oil cooler assy. Does NOT self prime and should only be used with a competition oil pan (99996-H1050/52). Has necessary fittings for factory oil cooler and lines listed below. Optional gaskets will provide proper rotor-to-cover clearance (.05mm/0020") when rebuilding competition oil pump.

[NOTE: We have used this pump successfully with stock oil pans and the oil accumulator "Accusump".]
