Did some searches and some reading but wanted clarification and such.

I have a 75 2.0 that I am putting into a 71 car. I will be using the 1.7 heat exchangers from the engine that I pulled out of the car. I am also converting to a side shifter.

It is my understanding that the 75/76 bottom tin is different because of the HEs. My 1.7 was missing both bottom tin peices and I only have one side from the 2.0 which won't work anyway because I am changing HEs.

So I need bottom tin from any sideshift pre 75 motor right?

Does any parts place carry these or do I need to find used?

I just yanked out all my engine tin that I have in the shop (engine is out and appart now) for my 75 1.8L car.

There doesn't seem to be any difference in the tim at first glance. Infact all the tin on the under side of the car is well up into the workings of the motor. I'll check my parts catalog too and see if I can't spot any differences on the underbelly tin. I'll reply when I've looked it over.

I don't have a pic of the underside of my car before I took it appart, but if memory serves me correctly, there should be no problems.

My 75 is still a side shift and was upgraded to a 2.1L at some point in the past.
