 I'm new to the list and this is my first go at a Datsun project car, I've got a few technical questions, the answers may be of assistance to others as well.Here they are, thanks in advance. Nick. What do the various Datsun models weigh?I am specially interested in the Stanza, 200B, and Bluebird.
Stanza A10 = 915 - 960 kg
200B  (N810J) = 1098 - 1115 kg
Bluebird 910 S1 = 1015 kg
Bluebird 910 S3 = 1110 kg
 
 How much metal can be ( safely! ) removed from a L20B flywheel?
Don't know, most ppl run a 240K (C110) or Skyline (C210) flywheel with good results.
 I need to remove approx. 2mm of metal from the head and/or block to give a ~10:1 CR.The std. combustion chamber volume is 65cc (swept vol. = 488cc), I want to bring it down to ~55cc including the small amount of reprofiling needed around the inlet and exhaust valves.Can it be done, and has anyone done it (or does everyone use the L18 head)?What is the minimum deck clearance allowed ( approx. 10thou??? ) and can the slightly dished pistons be shaved flat and remain reliable to >6000rpm?(See supercharged Bluebird feature car)How much can the head and deck be shaved? Also, the L20B head appears to have poor 'squish' areas in the combustion chamber, specially considering the dished pistons ???
Flat top pistons will give ~9.3:1 on stock bore, I would think you're being a bit optamistic reducung the head volume by 10cc without striking drama.  If you going for street use just watch how high CR you go whatever method you decide is economical, the new lead additive super that's being phased in around the country  is crap for high compression engines.
  I am currently re-building a L20B  from a Bluebird TRX donor vehicle for use in a road/club car, I intended to use a Stanza shell to give the best power/weight ratio - but they are (relatively) expensive and hard to find.

... and they usually are full of rust.
