Any interest in a Nissan H20 crate engine?

[hobbes_the_cat]

I don't know much about these besides they came in forklifts but wikipedia said that they were used in some older Nissan cars like the Cedric and shared the same short block as the roadsters. Not sure if that is true though. I might be have a line a couple fresh crate motors if anyone might be interested.

I wonder if the pistons and rings are the same as used in cars? Totally different application. The SD diesel forklifts have different internal parts than the truck diesels.

The only differance I could see was the pistons have 5 rings(2 sets of oil rings), and the ones I pulled out had 3 rings(1 set of oil rings), there was absolutely nothing else differant, not sure what the long term effect will be, but my next kit will be "auto" application for the SD25.

So what issues you think there will be using a forklift rebuild kit?

Well I was doing a little research on the 311.org and some other places and it looks like these can be dropped into a roadster with a little parts swapping. It seams the forklift heads are not set up for higher revs and the may have lower compression. I kinda wish I had a roadster to test these things out on. Seams like a cool/cheap swap especially if you had a R16, step up to a 2 liter.

Yes please! I have an H20 in my roadster and I'd love to get a hold of another!

 

PM or email shifty@shiftco.com

I don't know if I'm too late to the party, but I am looking for a crate Nissan H20-2.  PM sent.

 

Thanks!

PM me the price.  Shifty and I can bring my truck up and grab a couple if the price is right.

OH Fuck, never mind.  Just saw the date on.  You guys need to quit grave digging threads.

[Gudge2]

All. Sometimes grave digging threads works.  I bought them (the two H20's--type 2) They are rebuilt, crate engines with installations gaskets. I still have one left. Let me know if any of you are interested. I'm in Seattle.

What are you asking for it?

[Bobcat2815]

Everyone, I did not buy the motors. It looks like the guy 3 posts up did buy them. Talk to him. I don't have them.

[Gudge2]

Sorry Gentlement. I didn't get a notification there was a response. If there's anyone still out there looking for a Nissan H20 I have one. Type 2. Rebuilt for use as an industrial engine.

How much? I'm actually restoring my Cedric right now and the engine in it is somewhat unknown... And not numbers matching anyways...
