theramz Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I saw a '82 Maxima in the j-yard and was wondering if anyone knew the internals on this engine. It was a W24 block with n47 head. I'm sure it is a 280 but what pistons are in it? The engine and bay are in all original status, wires, hoses, air cleaner. 112k on the od.

zcarnut Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 It’s the late version L24E engine. Same bore and stroke as the 240Z engine but it has a lighter flywheel than the earlier L engines and the rods and crank are different to accommodate a thinner connecting rod journal and the rods used the 8mm bolts. The piston used a thinner top compression ring as well. It’s also a “front sump†oil pan design, as the S30 cars used a ‘rear sump†oil pan. No more than about 115 to 120hp. However, the Maxima N47 cylinder head is desired due to its quelch shaped combustion chamber. More info available if you search using L24E and MN47.
