I have a "spare" 2.4L engine needing a home. I know, I know, my car and I can do what I want but I don't think this black/appearance package/2.0L combination was falling off tree's back in the day. Original engine is long gone, so it won't ever be numbers matching but I do have a 2.0L in the right engine series for it.

I have a '74 1.8 shell I could build up instead of this one is better off being close to how it was born.

Thoughts?

Thanks and I hope everyone is having a good week.
