My $500.00 1975 2.0 I will be posting pics of my progress as I clean up this engine and put it in my '71 that currently has the stock 1.7L. Engine was running when it came out of the '75 about 3 years ago. About 10,000 miles on rebuild before it came out of the car, according to PO. No plans at this point to tear it completely down or do anything special (or costly). Just clean it up and replace/repair whatever is necessary. I welcome in comments/suggestions/opions that anyone wants to throw my way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hopefully by next summer my I'll be driving my new toy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Time to get greasy! Sean Attached image(s)
