Hi Alan, Again, I am new to Z Cars and do not claim to be an expert whatsoever. I was told by a parts company (name listed above) while inquiring about a starter that my engine number matched with an R30 Skyline. That is all I can tell you about this... -
As promised Alan, see photos for engine number and oil pan position.

I will try and post photos as soon I get it back from the shop... if you notice, I have cropped my avatar to remove the flat bed tow truck it was sitting upon due to some electrical issue (maybe starter solenoid?) that caused the fusible link to overheat/white smoke and break. Once I get my car back, I will be happy to take photos and post.

sblake01: Since you have so much time on your hands reading my old posts and re-evaluating your immediate dismissal by erroneously thinking I am a "SPYBOT" and today come back with additional useless and offensive language ... it would be best that you put your energy into calling that parts company to verify my comment rather than continue posting negative comments in this forum. Also, thanks for such a warm welcome into this forum.

sblake01: No worries - you were trying to protect the forum and I appreciate that.

Eiji, Thanks. I personally called them (i have no affiliation) and they were able to make a match with my engine number to an R30 Nissan Skyline. Is that a shared engine with the 280z? I am very amateur at this stuff... so please forgive my ignorance. sblake01: First verify if a new user is for real before you call them a SPYBOT.

Hi all, I am new to this forum. I just purchased a 1971 240z (12/70) fitted with a 2.8L Nissan engine number L28R902644X. The database at partstrain.com says my engine comes from a Nissan Skyline R30. I am interested to find out if there are any updates on this thread. I have scoured the web for info on L28R engines, but this is the only thread I could find. More importantly, in what year/model cars was this engine originally installed by the factory? Thanks in advance for your time.
