 FLYWHEEL SPECIFICATIONS FOR AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS
                      Flywheel Specifications For
                        Automotive Applications

The AERA Technical Committee suggest referring to the following
specification chart when resurfacing flywheels. 

Specifications listed for S (Step) type flywheels refer to the height of the wear surface above the pressure plate mounting surface. Specifications for C (Cup) type flywheels refer to the height of the pressure plate mounting surface above the wear surface. F (Flat) type flywheels have the same height specification for the  wear and pressure plate mounting surface.

 REVISED CYL HEAD & BLOCK ON 1987-UP ENGINES
                Revised Cylinder Head & Block On
               1987-Up Nissan 3.0L (VG30) Engines


Beginning with April, 1987 production, the cylinder heads and
block have been changed on Nissan 3.0L (VG30) engines. 
Improvements were made to increase power output and decrease
noise levels of the engine.

Revised production engines can be identified by an engine serial
number that ends in W, such as XXXXXX W.  Former engine serial
numbers end in either A or B.  However, factory service
cylinder blocks will not carry the W identification even though
they feature the improvements listed below.  A visual check is
necessary for proper identification.

Six new water galleries were added to the cylinder block (Figure
1) and the cylinder heads (Figure 2).  This change required a
modification of the cylinder head gasket, where the original 6
water holes were downsized and 3 new holes added on the exhaust
side of the gasket (Figure 3).  The revised cylinder head gasket
can also be identified by its differing identification tab. 
Figure 4 best illustrates the former and revised head gaskets.

Additional changes were made throughout the engine.  The pistons
now use full floating, larger diameter wrist pins.  The small end
bore of the connecting rod was increased to accept the larger
wrist pin.  The revised rod is also heavier than the former part. 
Again, components are identified by a W stamp. 

Nissan advises against the use of former parts when servicing
vehicles with engines manufactured as of April 1987.  Refer to
the chart to determine the proper component combination when
servicing engines manufactured prior to April 1987 (Figure 5).
