Nissan H engine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nissan H series of automobile engines was an evolution of the Prince/Nissan G-series used in the 1960s. Both straight-4 and straight-6 versions were produced, and all but the Datsun Sports version were pushrod engines, unlike some of their predecessors.

[edit] Straight-4
[edit] H
The basic H is a 1.9 L (1883 cc) engine produced from 1962 for Nissan's Cedric. Bore was 85 mm (3.3 in) and stroke was 83 mm (3.3 in). The 8.0:1 compression version produced 92 hp (69 kW) and 117 ft·lbf (159 Nm), while a high-compression engine (8.5:1) produced 95 hp (71 kW) and 120 ft·lbf (163 Nm).
Applications:
- 1962 Nissan Cedric 31 (high-compression)
- 1962 Datsun Junior 40
- 1962 Datsun Caball C141
[edit] H20
The H20 is the most-common member of the family. Displacing 2.0 L (1982 cc) thanks to a larger (87.2 mm) bore, all H20 engines produced 99 hp (74 kW) and 123 ft·lbf (167 Nm).
Applications:
- 1966 Datsun Junior 41
- 1966 Datsun Caball C142
- 1967 Datsun Caball C240
- 1968 Datsun Junior 140
- Datsun Clipper T65
- 1965 Nissan Cedric P130
[edit] OHC
Another 2.0 L (1982 cc) version was adapted for the company's high-performance Datsun 2000 roadster. It was similar to the earlier G-series engine, sharing its block design, but was a SOHC unit rather than a pushrod engine like its predecessor and the rest of the family members. Output jumped to 135 hp (101 kW), or 150 hp (112 kW) with dual Solex carburetors. Five main bearings were used for reliability.
Applications:
- 1967 Datsun Sports 2000
[edit] Straight-6
[edit] H30
The H30 is a 3.0 L (2974 cc) straight-6 version produced from 1965. Bore was 83 mm (3.3 in), and stroke was a long 100 mm (3.9 in), producing a very undersquare design. Output was a low-revving 130 hp (97 kW) and 173 ft·lbf (235 Nm).
Applications:
- 1965 Nissan President H150
- 1967 Datsun C80
