L24 and L26

Could some one please explain the difference between the two?:stupid:

240Z with L26.

L24 = 2.4 liter, used in Z cars through 1973.

L26 = 2.6 liter, used in 260Z (1974 in US, 1974 through 1978? in the rest of the world).

L28 = 2.8 liter, used in 280Z and ZX through 1983.

L26 has the same bore as an L24, but the stroke of the L28.

Arne is right, the difference is displacement.

240Z = L24 engine

260Z = L26 engine

280Z(X) = L28 engine

So................ a 240Z would not have come from Datsun (Nissan) with an L26 engine, thus your quote describes a car that does not have it's original engine.

To some people that matters, to others it doesn't.
