Problem is the Roadster Crankshaft has a flange on the rear, so you would have to use a two piece rear main seal. On the later Datsun's (510 & 240Z) there is no flange on the rear, so the one piece

SOME shocks will NOT pass through the lower A-frame. The original OEM shocks are quite simple to change, provided you drive the car up on STURDY Ramps. Remove the lower plate, held with three bolts,

Bill, You got me there! I knew about that one, and overlooked it. Too many years under the 2000 (which do not use the right angle drive like the 1600's did). So it should be 23 zerks for the 1600; 2
