i came across a very strange A15 today and it had the dizzy on its side in the block ,the fuel pump on the wrong side so i dont know what it would be running of ,and some other strange stuff

ok so far all i can remeber is

head bolts on the outside of the rocker cover (like a mini)
datsun rocker cover
A15 stamped into the same place on the block as an A12
fuel pump on the manifolds side of the motor ? strange i know !
dizzy was almost completely horizontal to the block
funny lookin water pump ,it had its own port
looked to be A12/14,15 inlet manifold with 'japan' stamped on it
looked to be a standard 1200 carby
realy wide head


would this motor maybe be a morris or mini or something with a datto rocker cover ?
could it be worth money or just be a waste of time ?

You sure it was not a J15?
They are similar and easy to mistaken.

Nah - they are povo as. Good to power a hydraulic woodsplitter that needs to run at 1500rpm all day but if you want to put it in something with wheels then the world may stop in it's orbit and go backwards.
