    early engine crossmember vs late

    thank you so the only real difference is the raised section at the bottom of the mount and the size of the access hole. i can make that work. i have a complete early car... so il just use the early mounts for the engine

    what is the difference exactly? is it just the motor mount style? what is the difference with the mounts other than shape? is the early one weaker?

    broken parts in oil pan.

    not sure... not by any normal means... there is no direct path. that is just what comes directly to mind when looking at it too squared off to be accidental. are there any other gear like items accessible to the oil return path? it would have to be on the return side and not the pressure side...

    Another addition to the stable...

    the 67.5 2000 has been known to sell upwards of 20k... a good 67.5 1600 will bring around 15k these cars are very undervalued at the moment. i think the highest i have ever heard of a 2000 bringing in is 45k... but it had celebrity ownership, and was low a # car.

    from your picts emp it is a 67.5 so it is still one of the rarer ones. the dash has 3 switches in the center correct? you should at least register the vin # on the 311s car regristry

    the 67.5 2000 is one of the rarest datsuns to come to america. none of the z cars would have ever came stateside if it were not for the success of the 311 in the scca. there were only about 600 srl cars imported in 67 and only about 1500 produced at all that year.
