Gonna start this thread for Cody's motor build. We have 2 - L20b blocks. They were missing the timing covers. The one we started with was the better looking of the two. The second one looks like it has sat outside for a while. The crank snout on the worse one is really rusted. So I bought the 6" inch "long" rods from Nissan. I spoke to Dave Rebello about a year ago and he recommended I get the Z20 rods. I've had these for about a year. Evidently these can be hard to get in reasonably closely weighted sets. 152.45mm rods So the plan for right now is to build the long block and move the current head and head studs over to it. The current L16 head has been freshly redone. Then when Cody has saved up some money we will select a head to send to Dave and have him work it, the cam and all the valve train up. Then swap it on.... We have 5-6 heads to choose from. I will need help from Dave to pick the right direction This is the block we're working with 2 cylinders are ugly! And 2 look pretty good. This was why we could rotate the engine. Even with a BFH. These corroded bores shouldn't be an issue because we're punching to 89mm. This block and crank measures to be uncut and untutrned Here are the rods and pistons. None of these will be reused Here is the crank.
