you can buy crate engines (complete engines, ready to install) with about 30-60 K on them for about the same money (often less) than rebuilding them.
you could follow this link

or just do a search on Nissan crate engines.

Your talking antique now. I haven't worked on a L-20B motor in Years. What is that a Carburator? I don't miss working with points and condencers either. I would use a modern motor. Or check the trans adapt web site for other more modern choices. Check Nissan Performance dot com and see if there is some one that has internal engine parts. Wrecking yards. Not those modern dismantlers...

Your incredibly lots screwed. the only genuine selection is to take all rods and rod caps to gadget save and pay $60-seventy 5 to have the large ends resized. for this reason anybody and each e book and each handbook tells you to quantity the rod caps and rod beams once you're taking it aside. i actually use a a million/8" metallic stamp quantity set. The set is like $15, has 0, a million, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (turn 6 the different way up for 9). carry the stamp against metallic and strick with a hammer.. Leaves a constructive sparkling stamped into metallic quantity. If the caps are numbered, then its been took aside in the previous. inventory engines have not got numbered rod caps look on edge of rod beams and see if there's a quantity on them besides. if so you have have been given purely have been given fortunate. additionally did you quantity your significant caps? they could desire to circulate back in same order besides. If no longer it is going to lock the crank down and basically restoration is to take block and significant caps to gadget save and spend $a hundred and fifty to have it alined honed
