some local A12s have the larger bushing on the rods, could have been imports from japan or elsewhere but they are around unfortunately.

To my knowledge they are the same. You are thinking of a different engine, the A12A.

just be careful with buying new pistons from earlier a12 to late there could be some difference when buying small end for A12 early had 17.5 but DD can confirm as Ive forgotten atm but did remember someone having issues with this area, they were 19mm rather than 17.5mm.

Hi Guys,
Attaching a picture of my engine bay, if this helps. The number engraved on the engine is A12 290167E so I am guess it is an A12 engine.
If it is Datsun 120y A12 will the piston size, rings & gaskets still be the same as normal A12?
Kind Regards,
Ron

120Y means A12-powered B210.

A14 powered B210 was not badged as 120Y.

See 120Y

From your other pic looks like a 120y type later a series as all ignition leeds end up on dizzy near cyl 3.

The previous owner could have removed the A14 & fitted an A12, but not change the engine number with the RTA. The only way to be sure is to check the engine number, which is on a machined area behind the distributor. If it had an A14,you'd have thought the seller would have told you.

If the engine has the same number as that, then yes it will be the A14 (1.4L).
