Why they called it a 200B I don't know. I think it had a 1900cc motor.

Probably because the engine was an L20b, 1960cc Im pretty sure but basically just a bored and stroked L18 from the 180b and that was just a bored out L16 from the 1600 (B510) :D

Wow all my useless datsun information is coming out :o

Hey! the front rotors were 9" and fitted straight onto my 1600.
That and a (dare I say it--) 120y brake booster made my day!

It was actually a new block (about 25mm taller) to accomodate the longer stroke. The head has a larger combustion chamber too. But essentially the same engine.

The 240K brakes were the ones to have. Slightly larger (9.5" i think) with twin piston calipers. Still bolted onto the 1600. That was the best part of the old Dattos - all the parts are interchangable.
My 1200 coupe has Stanza balljoints (the big ones - there are two sizes) so that the 240K steering arms an struts bolt straight in. Fitting the L20B and 260Z gearbox wasn't as straight forward though. :angel:


Paul

yep,, the SSS 200B had the 9.5's too,,
my 260 mated fine behind my L20,,,
??



replaced several slave cylinders before going to ceramics,,

with 30" tyres the 5th speed was a waste(even with the 4.6diff):p:p

you could get a 5.1,,(must have been awesome with 14" wheels:eek:)

forget where that came from--:(



edit;

Doh!

into a 1200!!!
mate, the 260 use to knock on the tunnel in the 1600!! :)

YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, it's tight. Never hits the tunnel though. Probably due the the very rigid engine and gearbox mounts I've made.


Paul

Rigid???

try a 25mm HT bolt with 10mm x 55mm eurathane collar welded upright on a bracket to the subframe,, the corresponding ID pipe was welded to the motor,,
then the lot was slowly lowered vertically into the engine bay,, nylock on top.

yes you could remove the engine with the twin 45's still attached,,

if you removed the radiator,,,

rigid?

LOL!!:D
