I went to my local Nissan dealership yesterday and had them print me out a bunch of exploded views of the l28e/l28et that show the part # the parts counter clerk said that they can get anything listed so if you would like i can post them here. Just let me know. Maybe it would make a good Sticky. Well here they are. http://s130.photobucket.com/albums/p276/FooL81/S130%20Engine%20Part%20numbers/

Thanks that is just what I needed i have been cleaning bolts in carb cleaner all afternoon. Time to pack that up!!

Hey thats fine w/ me if I can get a package with all new engine fastners labled I would do it in a heart beat. Nice, easy, count me in. So if anyone knows who the seller is or if one is running now that would be great i am having a hell of a time ebay is so tempermental in how you search (ie. l28, l28e l28et S30....... ) It kills me.

I am looking for a hardware kit for the engine pretty much want to replace everything where bolts broke off or are to rusted to recognize. If anyone has any ideas where I can get something a kit w/ everything without having to order everything separately that would be great. Thanks in advance.

When I took mine off i just put a 2x4 under it and used a 26mm deep socket to block the flywheel from spinning anymore by propping it up on the 2x4 and wedged it between another bolt and loosened them all no problem. Oh yeah you need to use a breaker bar.

Are there any hardware kits for the l28 to replace all fastners when doing a rebuild. Meaning all mounting fastners as well as head studs mani studs ect. If so where? Thanks in advance. Chris

I finaly had a chance to get arround to it and the slide hammer did get my CORE PLUGS out. Without any problem thanks again Tony. Chris

Ok i give core plugs it is. :hail:So now how do i get the front and rear ones out? I didn't think i could use a punch w/ the closeness of the cylinder wall. That is how i got the other 9 out but the ones on the end are giving me trouble. HELP! Thanks.

Thanks for the info about the CORE PLUGS but i didn't think i could drive the ones on the ends in because they are so close to the cylinder wall. Also i think that the freeze / core debate holds true to where you live. Because before i started tearing this one down i guess it popped one because there was a rubber stopper in it. But for those of you in more temperate climates where the threat of freezing does not exist i guess that the term freeze plugs would have no reference for the meaning. But here in the middle east (Virginia) we get all the fun weather 110+ F and 10- F so here we do use that term. Anyway is there anything else that should be done while it is apart. And what are your thought on the 3 stone hones VS. the flex hone?

I am in the middle of rebuilding my l28 and am having a hard time getting the front and rear freeze plugs out even with drilling the hole and trying to pull them out all the screw does is pull through the plug. Also while i have it down this far should i go ahead and pull the oil gallery plugs or just let them go. If you think i should pull them what is the easiest way and what all do i need to reinstall new slugs? Any help greatly appreciated. Also if there is anything else i would know while it is down this far let me know and anything i should have done at the machine shop. The overall condition looks good the cylinders still have the factory cross hatching even after 170k mi or 270k mi IDK. Anyways I am new at this engine building thing so all help appreciated.

there is this place on eBay. http://stores.ebay.com/Precision-Power-Parts_Turbo-Manifold-Parts_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ3269976QQftidZ2QQtZkm And they have all of the flanges needed.

I have wondered this myself, maybe someone has some good ideas.

I will check and get back to you on that i am not really sure but i think there was like 2-3 layers of carpet so it will take a while to find out. But like i said i will be tearing it apart on sunday. Would you be interested in the seat while i am there i can get pics and post them? just let me know.

Just so everyoe knows i will be going on sunday to start parting this thing out and will pull what i can and get back to you on the condition. I will also try to make a list of anything else that is good and post it here. Let me know of anything else so i can try to get most everything shipped on monday or tuesday.

I just got the thing yesterday and it is at my brother in laws garage, it is rainy and cold here today but just send me what you need i am making a list and when i get over there (which should be later this week) i will check on everything and get back to you. The guy i got it from used it for a while as a parts car but a majority of it is still there

The drivers seat is orange and does look to be in good shape i mean there is the usaul dust from sitting but all the glass on the car is good so it wasn't exposed to the elements. i will try to get a pic and send it to you if you are interested, just let me know.

The back seat is orange i will have to double check on the door pannels it is rainy and nasty here today i will see if i can get out to check later oh yeah BTW i just got the thing yesterday. so i am not to familar w/ it.

I am parting out a 77' 2+2 with the exception of the engine and trans let me know if you need anything and i will let you know if it is good a price and maybe a shipping quote.
