Here is the conversation so far.
Me:
REDDAT:Hi, The freeze plugs arrived yesterday. Thanks for the quick shipping.
However, they do not fit the Roadster U20 engine.
They are to large. I need to return them to you.
Thanks
Richard Brown
Me:auctions states 16 size engine only
Me:Excuse me. It says "Also 1965-1970 datsun roadsters". Nothing about only for the 1600. The freeze plugs are the same for the roadster 1600 & 2000. These are NOT for the Roadster engines.
REDDAT:Here is a link to a Roadster vendor for the freeze plugs.

Me:IM NOT GOING TO ARGUE IS STATES L16 ENGINE ONLY
REDDAT:I am glad you are not going to argue. Send the refund & I will send back the plugs. It does not state L16 only. It says, and I quote again, "Also 1965-1970 datsun roadsters." Roadster never came with a L16 engine.
I will send them back and see what he does on the refund. I would be very cautious dealing with this guy. He has another auction for the same plugs. Don't be fooled, they will not work.send them back and i will give a refund
