PanzerAce Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 How do you know is a OSG head and not one of those LZ heads? (though either would be awesome to have) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJLamberson Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 LZ head? enlighten me please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerAce Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I don't remember if it was just a head or a complete engine, but it was a twin cam setup designed for the four banger L series in the 510. *checks wikipedia* Yah, that would also correspond to the group racing that is mentioned: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_L_engine#LZ Basically, think head designed for racing and some absurd power numbers for the displacement (usually by boosting or revving past rotary territory) Don't get me wrong, if they are in good condition it would be awesome to have them, but these aren't the OSG heads that it seems everybody and their mother wants.

MJLamberson Posted February 16, 2009 Author Share Posted February 16, 2009 How silly of me, it doesnt even specify that it is for a Z... It was late, ahwell, it could be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Could be anything with twin cams (if that part of the ad is true). RB20, RB25, RB26, KA24DE, SR20DE, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 280ZForce Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 after emailing him... I found out it's a 4 cylinder dohc L head... he's says the z22 head. Opens up some questions still as Tony D says below.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Ahh, well that was dissapointing.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The LZ22 was not a DOHC engine, it was SOHC. There was a DOHC "LZ" Engine for racing in JDM, which used the standard block, not the later NAPS-Z Block which is differentiated by the serial number pad being in a different place, amongst other things.... A photo here would be worth the money if it's a real "LZ" head, and not a "NAPS-Z" head. Which many Americans mistakenly refer to as an "LZ" head... The LZ head is DOHC. The NAPS-Z head is not.

ArnZ Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 "However I have spoken with quite a few datsun guys who are interested in it" I wonder what "datsun" guys he spoke to? A real Datsun guy would have shot his $3500 dream sale down the drain. http://www.datrats.com.au/lz_twin_cams.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 280ZForce Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 well he says he is outta state right now, so he can't take any pics of it or give me any casting #s off it to help us verify which head this is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
