To time your 1972 Datsun 510, you should set the ignition timing to around 10 to 12 degrees BTDC (before top dead center) at idle, with the engine warmed up. Use a timing light to check the timing marks on the harmonic balancer and the timing cover. Ensure the vacuum advance is disconnected and plugged during this process for an accurate reading. Always refer to the specific service manual for any variations based on your engine configuration.
The Datsun 510 went by several other names when it was first manufactured in 1968. Some of the other names that this model of vehicle went by include the Datsun Bluebird, Datsun 1300, Datsun 1500, and Datsun 1600.
The Datsun B 110 is actually more valuable than the 510 Model.
The Datsun 510, in the USA that car has been nonexistent for many moons. Good luck with that one, maybe a Datsun club could help you.

Not at all. The Datsun 1200 (B110) uses a different type of engine (the A series) whereas the 1600 (510) uses the L Series engine.

The firing order is 1 -3 - 4 - 2.
The maximum speed of the 1969 Datsun 510, equipped with a 4-cylinder engine producing 96 horsepower, is approximately 100-110 mph (160-177 km/h). This compact sedan was known for its lightweight design and nimble handling, contributing to its performance capabilities for its time.
As long as its an "L" series motor Like the L28b(for example) will bolt to any "L" series transmission like the 510 that bolts to the L20B four cylinder. Another great thing by DATSUN
