[Roadsters] G15/R16 3-main bearings

[Pete Peters]

Those 12207- numbers appear to be NISMO stuff.......and NLA. 

The REPCO parts Graeme referenced from the DSOA site are also unobtainium. 

I thought the Nissan J-series were similar/compatible w/ the BMC B-series? If so, no go as the main journals are smaller than the G15/3-main R16, which are smaller than the 5-main R16.

I have a listing as follows: 
Nissan 12207-73600 3 Main type 770 
Nissan 12207-12201 3 Main type 500 R16 (white metal) 
Nissan 12207-73600 As above; renumbered 
Nissan 12207-12201 020 .020" or 0.50 mm 
Yamato-Shokai MS-1002GO (NDC) 3 main OEM supplied to Nissan 

Also, I wonder if the BMC B series will fit? 
Vandervell VPM817 3 Main BMC B Series MGA Vandervell VP2 .010", 
.020", .030", .040"? 
Vandervell VPM91049 3 Main BMC B Series MGB Vandervell VP2 .010", 
.020", .030", .040"?

Subject: [Roadsters] FYI: G15/R16 3-main bearings NLA from Nissan 

FYI: My Datsun-friendly (510 guy) Nissan parts person confirms the main 
bearings for 3-main R16's are NLA from Nissan nor do any dealers show them 
in inventory. After-market also comes up blank. 

12209-12201: SET-BUSHING, CRANK SHAFT F770 0.25MM, 3-BEARINGS 
12210-12201: SET-BUSHING, CRANK SHAFT F550 0.50MM, 3-BEARINGS 
12211-12201: SET-BUSHING, CRANK SHAFT F770 0.75MM, 3-BEARINGS 

If you want main bearings for a 3-main G15/R16, Stan & Dean (Ross? Others?) 
are your sources. 

Thanks.
