This was a venture by NMA when the late 70s fuel crisis was on. Not that many were sold. they used a nikki converter and carb and had a great fuel cell. Only 2 were sold in SA. We discovered that a new LPG head had the large ports and valves of the 200B but small combustion chambers like 1800s. Just the job for Rally engines.The rockers are hardened and recommended by nissan as the part to use in race/rally engines. A new head had hardened seats as well but the best part was a new head was half the price of a standard head. We purchased 14 of these heads for rally engines until I got acall from Nissan asking how come we had bought so many heads and there was only 2 sold in SA. They then put these heads on special order only withproof required B4 purchase. The same thing happened to us with the LD20 crankshafts.
