I can't remember why I'm mad at you...


So, wait. The truck is still badged as a Datsun but has a Nissan engine with Z stamped heads? When did Datsun do the Nissan changeover? Do the heads signify anything other than a dark sense of humor on the PO's part? Does this (awesome) truck have an old Z-car engine in it? What the actual gently caress?

I should have prefaced with the fact that I know poo poo about Datsuns/Nissans.

Yeah, 83 they changed from being Datsun to being Nissan. The truck is an 81, but as far as I can tell the motor is either from a later 720 pickup since the twin spark motor didn't come out until after 83. It's not a Z-car motor because those were all 6s.

Ah, right on. Thanks. Truck is super rad, man. I'm pretty jealous.
