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. |

You can't tell by "looking" but with a dial indicator one could check the valve lift and make a good run at figuring it out.
I had a 2.4L short block that had a 2r/3r (AIR) case. Also had one with a 4r/5r. The latter one had the 11 stud cam towers. The 2r case is not a good foundation for an upgrade to 2.7L, IMO. Most all these parts from the early 6s are interchangable. The 2.4L has a longer stroke. |
