ok, so now youve wetted my appetite and ive been looking at bloody nissan diesels on google, wiki and ebay lol.

few questions

have you pics of the diesel rods? are they beefy enough to run big power? dont fancy the guy that used shot peened CA20 versions, they are too weedy!

also have you pics of the CA20 and CD20 sumps please?

i can see some scrapyard hunting soon and a garage full of more old engine bits!

cheers

Craig

rod pics are here but I think they are too long for the ca20e 223.5 mm block as the cd20 is 228mm so would need 5mm shorter piston which would mean you need 25mm pistons big bore custom hayabusas.

http://forums.nicoclub.com/ca21det-build-t550380.html

dont have the cd20 engine just the ca16,8 & 20 but the sump on the ca20e looks like this one, a little deeper etc. will try and get a pic this week sometime

Just got word from Tommy on US forum the CD20 rods are 140mm c-c due to the beef'd up slugs for diesel oomph which makes them replicas of Ld28 rods only slighly thinner at the big ends.
Ive calculated the Z22e 149.5mm rods are a better choice for the ca20e block using stock det pistons.
