It would be easier to find out by finding the block casting... Like F54, N42, etc. Then you can narrow down the years it was made.

And engine codes? That's what he's looking for.

nissan never organized what block serial #'s went in what cars, for instance my friend has 240z #36, it has engine #59 in it!! they just stuck them in however they ended up. and more than one car got the l6, so put the f54 block in it, with the n47/n42 or e series head, and you have some great power. if you use the p series head, the comp will be lower, with the f54 combo at least
