Sammy, or anyone else,
We were talking at Don & Glenns Swap last week about my delema of not knowing for sure what size 6 cyl. engine is in my '73 conversion car. The questions was that the privious owner said that the engine was 2.7 but the numbers on the case say 2.2 E, the heads & cam towers are early (6 bolt lowers). Anyway, you told me to check the cylinders to see if they are aluminum or Iron, well, they are Iron. So what does that mean? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) -Mike D. |

Can I tell what cam from looking under the upper valve cover?
And, why would someone rebuild an 2.2E with 2.0 p/c's? And isn't the stroke longer on a 2.4? To build a 2.4 or 2.7 from a 2.2 case/heads/crank/rods etc. would be a huge PITA, especially with 2.7 cases and cranks available. 901.101.101 2R on the case. The car has really good compression and sounds great at high RPM. I't hard to tell HP wise because it seems to run out gear really fast in 1st-3rd. It has a stock 901 tranny from a 4 cyl. car. Any more Thoughts? TIA Mike D. |
