NISSAN ARNT THAT RICH TO MAKE TWO DIFFERENT BLOCKS.They will be much the same(sorry about cap lock) Now the 85ish bluebird FWD has a L20B(2) east west L20B(2) is belt drive not chain apart from that they are the same. I have taken the engine out of a old FWD 1968ish? nissan/datsun I dont know the model code but the size of a mini it had a A10 engine ,I fitted a A14 it bolted on to the gearbox with no problems and what a rocket.
